[ARCHIVED] Fill in the blank on new quizzes

[cchandler2]

Is there a way that I can get Canvas to understand that order does not matter in fill in the blank questions? Otherwise, I have to go through each quiz and change the answer to correct or I would have to change the question to a different type.

Hi,  @cchandler2 , is this the process you're using to create a fill-in-the-blank question with multiple blanks? https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-26384-how-do-i-create-a-fill-in-the-blank-question-in-new-q... Could you elaborate on how the order of the blanks is altering your workflow?

I have the same question.  A typical question would be to find the roots of a quadratic equation.  There are two possible answers and I don't want a multiple choice/guess.  However, regardless of the order of the responses, both answers need to be present.

x^2-3x-28=0 should yield x=7 or x=-4  With fill in the blank as it currently wants me to enter answers, a student could enter x=7 twice and still get full credit if I allow for both answers for both blanks.

What I want is a true 'or' option to be supported.  Order does not matter but both distinct answers must be present for full credit.
