Now that we have uploaded several images to the course, I can show you about this function. Create Folder allows us to make different folders to hold our images. We now have several images related to fruits and vegetables, so we are going to create a folder titled Fruits and Vegetables.

The first thing we need to do is enter the name of our new folder into the textbox beside the Create Folder button. Once this is done, we click on the button and a new folder will appear above the images in the course, as seen in the next screenshot:

To place our images in the folder, we need to check each of the boxes and click on the Move button. This will bring up a message stating # files selected for moving. Now go into the destination folder and click on Move files here. Now we need to check the Fruits and Vegetables link. This action will open up a directory with the Move files here button. Click on the button and the files will be moved.

Now when you go back to the Insert Image menu, you will no longer see the images, you will only see the folder containing them. This is a very useful function if you are working with different image types.

Now, I create a new multiple-choice question and go to the Insert Images menu. I select the image I want and add the Alternate text, make any adjustments to the Size (here, I will be using 150x150), and click on OK.

We repeat this process as many times as necessary to add all the images we want to our question. When you are adding new images, make sure the previous image is not selected or that image will disappear and the new one will take its place. Switching to the full screen editor really helps.

After writing the question and manually adjusting the image locations, add a letter next to each image and the result will be as shown in the following screen.

For this particular question, I have turned off numbering, because it would be redundant to have the options numbered, as well as having single letter responses.

I have turned off the answer shuffling option, because it would be more confusing to students if the A, B, C, and D responses were in a different order than the images associated with the letters.

You can also use a table in the rich-text editor to keep the images looking good and in the right position. Just create a new table and set rows, columns, and spacing to look the way you want, then insert the images inside the cells.
