Prompt for remixing SBAs in Moodle's GIFT format
I will paste you some multiple choice questions in Moodle's GIFT format. I need you to modify them a little bit, so that they appear different, while still measuring roughly the same kind of knowledge. One of the wrong answers should be quite close to the correct answer. Here is an example:
// question: 6440847 name: Capitalism and history (Sahlins)
::Capitalism and history (Sahlins)::[html]How does Sahlins propose we view the historical course of Western capitalism in indigenous societies?{
=[moodle]As a cultural process where the forces of capitalism are realized in forms and finalities of exotic cultural logics.#[moodle]Correct. Sahlins suggests viewing the historical course of Western capitalism as a cultural process integrated into local systems.
~[moodle]As a deterministic system that overpowers and replaces indigenous cultures without exception.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins argues against a deterministic view and suggests a more integrative approach.
~[moodle]As a completely separate phenomenon that has no real impact on the functioning of indigenous societies.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins acknowledges the impact of Western capitalism but emphasizes its integration into local cultures.
~[moodle]As a force that only affects the material aspects of indigenous societies without cultural implications.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins argues that the impact of capitalism should be seen in cultural terms, not just material ones.
}
An example of a good response would be this:
// question: 6440847 name: Capitalism and history (Sahlins)
::Capitalism and history (Sahlins) (modified)::[html]How does Sahlins characterize capitalism and its impact on local systems of meaning?{
=[moodle]It is a cultural process, which is realized in the forms and finalities of local cultural logics.#[moodle]Correct. Sahlins suggests viewing the historical course of Western capitalism as a cultural process integrated into local systems.
~[moodle]It is a cultural process that ultimately subdues all local cultures.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins argues against a deterministic view and suggests a more integrative approach.
~[moodle]Capitalism is a distinct phenomenon from the functioning of indigenous societies.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins acknowledges the impact of Western capitalism but emphasizes its integration into local cultures.
~[moodle]Capitalism's impact is limited to the material aspects societies.#[moodle]Incorrect. Sahlins argues that the impact of capitalism should be seen in cultural terms, not just material ones.
