__NOTOC__
The '''Quiz''' activity module allows the teacher to design and build quizzes consisting of a large variety of [[Question types]], including multiple choice, true-false, and short answer questions. These questions are kept in the [[Question bank]] and can be re-used in different quizzes.

*Feedback about performance and self-assessment are important parts of a learning environment. There are several ways to give feedback to students: on each question or overall. The quiz module can display feedback and scores at different times during the quiz, using the review options in the [[Quiz settings]].
Depending on the settings, students may see questions all on one page or on separate pages. There will be a block linking to each question.


*A wide variety of [[Quiz reports]] (in addition to [[Grades]]) are available for use by the teacher. Quiz reports not only can focus on a single student's attempt to answer each question, but also can perform a robust item analysis of a question's validity based upon aggregated student responses.

*A single quiz can automatic select random and/or specific questions from different [[Question bank|categories]] of questions.  
Students can flag questions to alert the teacher to possible queries.


*There are different options for [[Editing a quiz|scoring (marks-grades)]] individual questions in a specific quiz, [[Adding/updating_a_quiz#Grades_section|grading attempts]] for a quiz and each [[Question bank|question type]].
In order to finish the quiz and potentially see their scores (depending on the settings) students must click 'Submit all and finish' when they reach the Summary of attempt page:
