Importing Questions from a Microsoft
Word Document
NOTE
This feature is only available in SMART Response for Windows
operating systems.
When you import questions from a Microsoft Word document, SMART Response’s
conversion utility uses a variety of techniques to identify which paragraphs are
questions, which are possible answers, and what type of question to create. Its most
basic technique is to format the numbering of the paragraphs. The software also
searches for key words when parsing the paragraphs. The software then converts the
paragraphs into SMART Notebook assessment pages.
NOTE
SMART Response software can’t provide the correct answers to the imported
questions.
