Add an opinion question to a course

Opinion questions do not count in the score of the course; their typical use case is for polls and surveys.

You can use two types of opinion questions:

• Multiple choice questions (learners must check boxes)
• Open questions (learners must submit a text and/or a document)

Those questions will only be visible in courses within program sessions or path sessions. If a course with an open-ended question is played via the catalog, the question will not be visible.

1. At the top of the homepage, click Courses.
2. Click on a course.
3. In the left sidebar, click Add a question.
4. In the section Opinion questions, select Multiple choice (opinion) or Open question (opinion).
5. Enter the title of the question.
