CQUniversity Unit Profile.

This is an online assessment which takes the form of a series of automatically marked questions.

Content quizzes will be comprised of different question types that will assess your knowledge and understanding of the content covered within each Module.

Question types:

• Drag and Drop: Drag an answer into the correct position into gaps in a paragraph of text.
• Select missing words: This is very similar to the drag and drop into text question type, but uses drop-down menus in the text instead of drag-boxes.
• Multiple Choice: Select the single or multiple correct answers from a list of options. 
• True/False: Choose between two options: "True" or "False". 
• Matching: Match each item in a list of sub-questions to the correct answer from another list. 

We strongly encourage you to complete the relevant quizzes as you progress throughout each of the modules.
