Language Highlighting Interaction

The language highlighting interaction content block is a content block that allows you to assess the user's knowledge.

A language highlighting interaction looks as follows:

Completing the Language Highlighting Interaction Form

If you select the language highlighting interaction you will be required to:

  • Enter interaction instructions or question

Note: These instructions indicate what the user needs to do in order to complete the interaction.

  • Enter the text that the user will work on
  • Highlight a part of the text that constitutes a correct answer
  • Click on 'Add Selection'
  • Repeat the last two steps for every correct answer in the body of text
  • Decide if you'd like punctuation to be highlighted as part of the correct answer and if so, click in the check box labelled 'Should punctuation selections be taken into account?'
  • Decide if the interaction is to be marked or not and check the check box at the bottom of the form if it is to be marked

Note: If the interaction is marked, the user's score will be saved if the courseware is being used in a virtual learning environment. The user will not be able to repeat the interaction as it will be disabled after the first attempt. The user is given one opportunity to complete marked activities.

  • Decide how many attempts you want the user to have. Use the dropdown menu at the bottom of the form to make your selection
  • Save or cancel your entries using the on screen buttons
