Note that MathML equations in questions are not exported in a usable way. This MathML is rendered within Moodle using the MathJax filter. Equation support (import only)Įquations written using the Microsoft Equation Editor in Word can be imported into Moodle as MathML. Both left-to-right and right-to-left languages (such as Arabic and Hebrew) are supported. Similarly, questions can be imported in the same language, not just English. See attached screenshot for an example.Įxported questions are labelled in the language of the current Moodle user interface, and the spell-check language is also set to the correct language. The Cloze question syntax is particularly useful, as it does not require any knowledge of the arcane Moodle syntax instead, use bold for drop-down menu items, and italic for fill-in text fields. Numerical and Calculated questions are exported, but cannot be imported. All the main question types except Numerical and Calculated questions are fully supported. The table structure for each question supports all the question components (stem, answer options, option-specific and general feedback, hints, tags and question meta-data such as penalties, grades and other options). Equations are converted into MathML on import and displayed using the MathJax filter. You can also export questions from the Moodle question bank into structured tables in Word.

The plugin also imports tables, images, and equations (when created using the Microsoft Office Equation Editor, not MathType/Wiris or the old Equation 3.0 editor).

You can quickly write lots of questions in structured Word tables far more easily than in Moodle directly. This plugin allows quiz questions to be imported from a Word file into Moodle.
