Answer set

As you have read in previous article, you can set the learning direction to question → answer, or answer → question, or no restrictions. There is another option and this is to add additional answer sets to a question. The standard answer set in a new drill are the known answer set (the question) and the unknown answer set (the answer).

Known answer set

The known answer set contains the information that the participant already knows, here the question is asked. For example, this field would ask whether a word needs to be translated or not.

Unknown answer set

The unknown answer set contains the information the participant needs to learn. Here you fill in the answers or, for example, give the unknown translation of the word known to the participant.

A second unknown answer set can be useful for certain forms of learning. For example, you can put the Dutch word in the well-known answer set, in the first unknown answer set the Spanish translation and in the second unknown answer set the English translation of this word.

To create a new answer set, click on the plus sign next to Answer. A new column can be created to add a new unknown answer set.

The participants can select whether they want to practice both answer sets or just one. Note that if all the drill questions have two answers sets and the participant only chooses to practice one answer set the participants will only reach 50%. To reach a 100% all the participant needs to practice all answer sets.
