Hi Joe or Meredith-

I=D5ve been working on my first Exam for my Family Food & Nutrition class. =
 In WebCT, I would choose maybe 20 questions from a weekly Unit Quiz, and s=
et the test up so each student would get a different random selection of 4 =
of those 20 questions.  Moodle allows a random selection, but it looks to m=
e like it needs to be a random selection from ALL of the questions in a cat=
egory.

For a variety of reasons, I don=D5t test on some of the questions in a cate=
gory.  One reason is that they=D5re questions about how the class is set up=
, like a due date question.  If I was starting a new class, I would put tho=
se questions in a different category.  But that=D5s not how I have the cate=
gories set up.

It occurred to me that maybe I could export those questions (I mostly test =
on M/C questions).  Then I could upload them again into a new category.  Bu=
t I don=D5t see how to export individual questions. It seems like it will o=
nly export an entire category of questions.  And I don=D5t understand the f=
ormat they=D5re in once they=D5re exported. And the Aiken format isn=D5t on=
e of the choices.

Am I making sense?

Thanks for your help.

Beth
