Quiz generation for Moodle in XML.
Project description
pymoodef
The goal of the pymoodef
package is to support the definition of
Moodle questions to be included in the question
bank to define quizzes.
To define the questions for the quizzes we can use the component for this purpose that includes Moodle, based on entering data through screens. It allows the import and export of questions in various formats, including xml.
Complementary, using the pymoodef
package, we can define
questionnaires from python. We have generalized 9 types of questions and
simplified their definition. So, we define a question by including a row
in a csv file or an Excel file. The result is an xml file that we
import into Moodle. If necessary, some parameter not considered in the
generalization can be defined or adjusted there.
In each question we can include an image that is embedded in xml. We can set up the size of the images so that they are homogeneous when displayed in quizzes.
Installation
$ pip install pymoodef
Usage
pymoodef
can be used to generate Moodle question xml files from csv
or Excel files:
$ python -m pymoodef tests/questions.xlsx result.xml
If the name of the result file is not indicated, one is created with the same name as the input file but with an xml extension in the folder that contains it.
$ python -m pymoodef tests/questions.csv
By default, csv files with columns separated by “,” are considered. In
case of using “;” as a separator, simply add a “2” after the file name,
as shown below for file tests/questions1.csv
.
$ python -m pymoodef tests/questions1.csv2
Below is the content of one of the question files used.
type | question | image | image_alt | answer | a_1 | a_2 | a_3 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
What are the basic arithmetic operations? | Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. | Addition and subtraction. | Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and square root. | ||||
Match each operation with its symbol. | Addition<|>+ | Subtraction<|>- | Multiplication<|>* | ||||
The square root is a basic arithmetic operation. | False | ||||||
What basic operation does it have as a + symbol? | Addition | ||||||
The symbol for addition is [[1]], the symbol for subtraction is [[2]]. | + | - | |||||
x | The symbol for addition is [[1]], the symbol for subtraction is [[2]]. | + | - | ||||
h | Sort the result from smallest to largest. | 6/2 | 6-2 | 6+2 | 6*2 | ||
x | Sort the result from smallest to largest. | 6/2 | 6-2 | 6+2 | 6*2 | ||
What is the result of SQRT(4)? | 2 | -2 | |||||
What is the result of 4/3? | 1.33<|>0.03 | ||||||

What basic operation has the symbol shown in the figure as its symbol? | divide.png | Operation | Division | ||||
x | Place the name of the operations as they appear in the figure. | ops.png | Operations | Addition | Multiplication | Division | Subtraction |
The configuration can be defined using an ini file with the same name as the questions csv or Excel file located in the same folder. Finally, the ini configuration file is displayed.
