Quiz Usability portal
This is a portal for gathering all the documents related to the usability of the Quiz module. The module is closely related to the Question Bank, so many subjects here are connected to the Question Bank and its categories, as well.
When developing the usability of a single module, it must also be ensured that consistency with the rest of Moodle is maintained: if Moodle develops in terms of usability, such development must be reflected in Quiz, and vice versa. Also the development of general UI guidelines of Moodle is important and closely related to a single module's efforts.
