Drag and Drop (Image Based) (Graded)

Image-based drag and drop activities are useful ways to help students to categorize, compare, and differentiate among concepts or items. These exercises may be used to categorize individual images or label parts of larger graphics. Such activities could include identifying different examples of a species, components of a plant, sections of a model, or places on a map.

Multiple-Image Format

Match each of several images to the correct description or bin.

Notes:

  • We recommend a minimum of two bins (categories or groups) for each activity.
  • An activity with four-plus bins may be divided into two screens when developed.
  • For multiple images, we suggest a maximum of six bins per activity and three – four items per bin.
  • Images may correspond to unique bins or be grouped in bins.
