Under the Answers parameter, you will see two central elements in the editing area of the matching question:
-
Answer boxes (for the categories)
-
Possible answers (for the terms to be matched)
Enter a category term into each Answer box, to which matching terms will later be assigned (e.g., “Tree species in Germany”).

Now enter the terms that are to be assigned to the respective answer boxes (e.g., “Fir”). To make the task more challenging, you can add up to five distractors that do not fit any answer box.
Important: Enter the correct terms directly below the corresponding answer box.
You can also use an answer multiple times, e.g., if the term fits into multiple categories.
Example: The answer “Beech” can appear in both “Forest” and “Deciduous Forest”.
