From: thepurpleblob The Aiken format is a very simple way of creating multiple choice questions using a clear human-readable format. Here is an example of the format: The Aiken format is a very simple way of creating multiple choice questions using a clear human-readable format.
+Here is an example of the format: This module can import questions saved in Blackboard's "POOL" type export
+format. This is generally for Blackboard versions 5 and earlier although
+many other quiz packages use this as their "Blackboard" export format.
+To use this first unpack the exported zip file and provide Moodle
+with the appropriate .dat file. Do not try to import the zip file directly Note that this version does not work with Blackboard
+Version 6 and newer. This module can import questions saved in Blackboard's export
+format. It provides limited support for Blackboard Version 6 and
+7. It relies on XML functions being compiled into your PHP. You
+must upload the zip file exported from Blackboard. Note that this format only imports the main data file from
+the zip. Any other data (e.g. images) is ignored. This format can import from Examview 4 XML files. Note that the older
+versions of Examview are not supported. Examview no longer supports this
+export format. You are advised the use BlackBoard format instead. GIFT is the most comprehensive import format available for importing
- Moodle quiz questions from a text file. It supports Multiple-Choice,
+ GIFT is the most comprehensive import format available for importing and exporting
+ Moodle quiz questions from/to a text file. It supports Multiple-Choice,
True-False, Short Answer, Matching and Numerical questions, as well as insertion
of a _____ for the Missing Word format. Various question-types can be
mixed in a single text file, and the format also supports line comments,
question names, feedback and percentage-weight grades. Optional questiontype plugins can extend this format The text encoding of your text file must be utf-8 (unless you only use ascii characters).
An example questions text file can be found here: gift/examples.txt. This format will import files created in Hot Potatoes. This format can import multiple choice questions saved in Learnwise's XML
+format. This format only supports multiple choice questions and
+short answer question, depending on the number of answers. One
+answer generates a short answer question, two or more answers
+generate a multiple choice question.
+Each answer is separated with a tilde (~), and the correct answer is
+prefixed with an equals sign (=). Here is an example of a multiple
+choice question: As soon as we begin to explore our body parts as infants
+we become students of {=anatomy and physiology ~reflexology
+~science ~experiment}, and in a sense we remain students for life.
+ Here is an example of a short answer question: As soon as we begin to explore our body parts as infants
+ we become students of {=anatomy and physiology},
+ and in a sense we remain students for life.
+ This special purpose format imports just one type of question, the
+Embedded Answers (also known as Cloze) format.
+ More info about the "Cloze" format This Moodle specific format imports quiz questions that have previously been
+exported in the same format. The format is straightforward and is best demonstrated
+by exporting a category in the Moodle XML format. The XML format is capabable of
+importing image files.
