Using Multiple Responses

Similar to Multiple Choice questions, Multiple Response questions are widely used to test learners understanding about a certain field or to check their ability to recall information. but unlike multiple-choice questions where there’s only one correct answer, Multiple Response Questions allow learners to select multiple correct options from a list.
