lightbulb_outline This question type can be used in a written assignment only.
An image question allows you to upload an image to go along with the question. A caption can be added if desired. This question type can be used when you want students to mark, draw or label something on an image. When using this question type no text box is visible to the students as the student is required to answer the question only by altering the image. The following file types can be uploaded:
- JPEG
- PNG (the png needs to include a background)
- GIF
Would you like to add both text and image(s)? Please use the 'free-formatted' question type instead.
Questions can be created either in a question bank exercise or from within a course assignment. The image below demonstrates creating the questions from the question bank exercise.

Options for an image question
-
Bonus
This marks the question as a bonus question, which means the number of points awarded with this question will be counted until the maximum amount of points achievable for this assignment is reached. The points of the bonus question are not included in the maximum amount of points that can be achieved for the assignment If the student answers the question incorrectly, this will not be detracted from the number of points and the mark.
-
Skippable
error_outline From the 5th of January 2025, the option to allow students to skip questions will be removed. More information can be found here.
You will first need to specify which students have the right to skip questions with this setting in your course. You can then set which questions can be skipped by these student(s). For written assignments, skippable questions will include a content_cut icon to indicate that students with the right to skip questions are exempt from answering them. Please note that if a question in a written assignment is set to 'Skippable', this icon will appear on all written assignments, including for students who do not have the right to skip exercises. The number of points for this question will not be counted in their results. It is not possible to change this setting after the test has been taken.

Options for grading an image question
-
Model answer
A solution for the reviewers (and for participants when published). The model answer can be an extensive elaboration, an image, or a file.
-
Start with zero points (For the points-per-criteria and rubrics grading method only)
If this option is enabled the marking of this question will always start at zero points and the points will be added up when selecting the criteria. When this option is disabled, the marking will start with the maximum amount of points that can be awarded for this question and selecting the criteria will be subtracted from this maximum. This means that the criteria should be added as minus points of the total amount. The reviewer can then select the criteria if the student did not meet this with their answer, so it can be detracted from the total amount of points.
-
Limit minimum to zero points (For the points-per-criteria grading method only)
error_outline From the 5th of January 2025, the option to limit points to zero or the total points will no longer be available. More information can be found here.
With this option enabled, it’s not possible to go below zero points when selecting the different criteria. It is still possible to manually adjust the number of points to go below zero with the adjustment option during the reviewing.
-
Limit maximum to total points (For the points-per-criteria grading method only)
error_outline From the 5th of January 2025, the option to limit points to zero or the total points will no longer be available. More information can be found here.
In the grading settings it’s possible to set the maximum amount of points achievable with the question, separate from the points per criteria When this number deviates from the maximum amount achievable by adding up the criteria points, this option will cap the maximum amount of points to this manually set number.
