Images can be placed inline with the question text and as part of the interactive elements of the question. For example:

• alternatives (e.g. multiple choice, multiple response)
• tables (e.g. matching / pairing)
• backgrounds (e.g. graphic text entry, graphic gap match, drag and drop, hotspot)

Note: The default width for inline images is 800 pixels, but you should test viewing your question on a laptop screen to ensure it can be viewed by students using similar devices.

Tips for using images in Inspera:

• use images that are small in file size so they will load quickly for students using shared internet connections
• Inspera does not reduce image file sizes after they are uploaded, so this needs to be done before uploading them to Inspera
• check the UQ software catalogue for graphics software that can assist with resizing images.
