    Elements

The <indicators> element is used to process pictograms that give extra information about an assessment. These pictograms often appear in the margin and show what kind of activity it is, how the learner should work, or whether there are any special conditions.

See Pictograms for more information about pictograms.

Placement of indicators

  • Place <indicators> immediately before the content it refers to.

  • This means:

    • directly after the <title> when the indicators apply to the complete assessment.

    • directly before a new question when the indicators apply only to that question.
