10.16. About Choice

What is Choice?

This module allows students to select answers from a list of options in response to a question posed by the instructor, thereby gathering their opinions. Unlike a survey, it consists of a single question; however, it can be configured to display the voting results anonymously to students while allowing the instructor to see who voted for which option.
