Create a multiple choice calculated questions and fill the text with: "If x = {param} , what should the value of z be? Remember that < mean less-than." fill the answers with: z < {param} z<{=2*{param}} Assign any number to the paramter. In the question bank, chose action "Export as Moodle XML" for the question you created. Go to the question bank in another course. Select 'Import' in the tertiary navigation menu. Select 'Moodle XML' format, and upload the file you just exported. Edit the newly imported question. Verify that all the information about the question is the same as the origian. (Except, possibly, it may ne the case that the param value is not included in the export. However, that has not been changed here. If that is a bug - I am not sure - then it should be created as a separate bug report.)
