Palmiere is most appreciative of ActiVotes, egg-shaped grey and orange hand-held devices that allow students to anonymously respond to multiple choice questions by clicking one of six letter choices.

Do you prefer "multiple-choice" or "multiple choice", "six-letter"or "six letter" here?

Thank you.

"multiple-choice" or "multiple choice" is a matter of preference*; "six-letter"or "six letter" is not. In the second case the hyphen would be wrong.

*I prefer the hyphenated form.
