The question type comparisons listed below compare the MyUCDavis question types with their equivalent in Samigo.
- Samigo lists 3 additional question types that do not exist in MyUCDavis: Survey, True-False, and File Upload. The first two question types are simply variations on multiple choice questions. The File Upload is a paragraph/essay question with file upload function automatically added.
- MyUCDavis has one question type with no equivalent in Samigo - calculated question type.
While there are many equivalencies between the two systems, there are slight differences and there are a few minor bugs with the Samigo import process which prevent the import of question parameters. These differences are noted as follows.
IMPORT QUESTION POOL LIMITATIONS
- Import question pools only works for single-section xml files - if you export a mult-section quiz, it will not import any of the questions. This is due to pending determination of how Samigo will handle export/import of subpools, possibly using Content Packaging; discussion of this issue is scheduled for Atlanta and is partly dependent on faculty feedback.
QUESTION POOL BUGS
Sakai v2.1.x
- Order by Question Text in this version does not work. Questions are displayed in the same order they are imported in (if imported.)
- Order by Question Type only works in descending order.
Sakai v2.2.x - 2.3.x
- Order by Question Text is forced in this version, i.e., imported questions will not appear in the order which they are imported (unless the order is already alphabetical.)
