Overview
The Media Dichotomous Key activity type presents a gallery of images to the user and a series of questions. Using the images, they answer to the best of their ability and, when there have been enough questions asked to reach a conclusion, they will be presented with their answer versus the correct answer based on their responses.
Creating the Activity
We have provided a template for the configuration file, which is used by the CLIO interface to set up the activity. We also include a content drafting template created in Microsoft Word that can aid collaboration when creating activities as part of a development team.
Define the Activity

By defining this information, we can begin to draft more specific activity content. This information is included in both the drafting template and the coding template provided with each activity type.
