Moodle 3 E-Learning Course Development - Fourth Edition

Creating and editing question categories

Every question belongs to a category. You manage question categories under the Categories tab. There will always be a Default category. However, before you create new questions, you might want to check to ensure that you have an appropriate category to put them in.

To add a new category, perform the following steps:

1. To add a new question category, go to Course administration | Question bank | Categories.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the Add category section.
3. Select Parent for the category. If you select Top, the category will be a top-level category. Alternatively, you can select any other category to which you have access. Then, the new category will be a child of the selected category.
