<p>At its most basic, a mentoring block can contain instructions (like this sentence), long answer questions, and various forms of multiple choice question.</p>
<p>Here is an example of a long answer question:</p>
</html_demo>
<answername="fav-quote"question="What is your favourite quote (from a book, movie, speech, song, etc.)?">
</answer>
<html_demo><p>Answer this one too:</p></html_demo>
<answername="fav-food"question="What is your favourite food?">
</answer>
<html_demo><p>Notice the submit button below will only be enabled once you have completed both questions.</p></html_demo>
</mentoring>
<mentoringdisplay_name="Basic Long Answer Question"weight="1"mode="standard">
<html_demo>
<p>And here is an example of a Multiple Choice Question (MCQ):</p>
</html_demo>
<mcqname="plain_mcq"question="Which book includes the line "But I have one want which I have never yet been able to satisfy, and the absence of the object of which I now feel as a most severe evil. I have no friend."?"correct_choices="frankenstein">
<p>Multiple choice questions can be configured with only one correct answer or with many accepted answers. There is also a special type of multiple choice question, a rating question, which provides a Likert Scale (5-point scale) prompt. Here is an example rating question where any answer is acceptable:</p>
<p>How did you like <em>To Kill a Mockingbird</em>?</p>
<html_demo><p>A fourth type of question is the Multiple Response Question (MRQ), which allows student to select multiple answers. Each answer can be marked as required, not required, or acceptable either way. The following question contains examples of each possibility. Try getting it wrong and see how it provides feedback to guide you to a correct answer.</p></html_demo>
<mrqname="future_movies"question="Which of these films are set in the future?"required_choices="apes"ignored_choices="2001">
<choicevalue="starwars">Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back</choice>
<choicevalue="2001">2001: A Space Odyssey</choice>
<choicevalue="apes">Planet of the Apes (1968)</choice>
<tipvalues="starwars">Star Wars takes place "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away"</tip>
<tipvalues="2001">You could argue this one either way. When the film was released in 1968, it was set in the future. However, 2001 is now in the past.</tip>
<tipvalues="apes">The majority of the film takes place in the year 3978.</tip>
</mrq>

<mentoringdisplay_name="MCQ With Tips"weight="1"mode="standard">
<html_demo>
<p>Like the MRQ above, multiple choice and rating questions can also provide feedback based on which answer was selected and whether the answer is correct or not. Here's an example:</p>
</html_demo>
<mcqname="subjunctive"question="Which sentence correctly uses the subjunctive case?"correct_choices="d">
<choicevalue="a">To buy or not to buy, that is the question.</choice>
<choicevalue="b">Renting gives you more flexibility.</choice>
<choicevalue="c">If I was you, I'd buy the house.</choice>
<choicevalue="d">If I were you, I'd rent the house.</choice>
<tipvalues="a,b">This sentence is not discussing hypotheticals or impossibilities.</tip>
<tipvalues="c">This sentence should be using the subjunctive case since it's dicsussing a hypothetical, but "was" is the wrong case.</tip>
<tipvalues="d">Correct. "was" has become "were" to indicate the subjunctive case.</tip>
</mcq>
<mentoring-messagetype="incomplete">
<p>Read the tip above and try again.</p>
</mentoring-message>
<mentoring-messagetype="completed">
<p>Nicely done. If I were you, I'd be proud of myself.</p>

<mentoringdisplay_name="Reviewing Answers">
<html_demo><p>A student's responses to long answer questions can be displayed later in the course. (<strong>Note:</strong> If you're going through this demo all at once, you may need to refresh the page.) Below is your favorite quote.</p></html_demo>
<html_demo><p>Mentoring questions can also be asked in "Assessment" mode, where each question is asked one at a time, and a final score is shown at the end. The author can set how many attempts each student is given to go through the assessment.</p></html_demo>
