Quiz examples of use
Here are some short Quiz module examples of use.
Certified training course exams linked
This is used in an asynchronous 24/7 course, where student's purchase enrollments. There are a series of exams (quiz) with activity locking (looking forward to Moodle 2.0) and set conditional dependencies based on a minimum score on the previous exam. We may use Lesson module or some sort of resource to present the content, then give an exam. Our question categories are organized by these exams, our Final exam pulls a selection of random and fixed questions from each of the categories. Taking the Final is dependent upon meeting the last exam minimum score. The certificate is tied to the score on the Final.
We use an exported copy of grades to give us a sense of how students are doing in each subject area. Based upon this data, we will look at a quiz's item analysis for commonly missed questions.
Gather proctor of student test information
Use short answer questions in a quiz to gather contact information about who is going to vouch that a student followed the testing rules at a remote location. We also provide a pdf statement for the proctor to sign for the students records. A 100% score on this "quiz" allows them to take the final and hopefully receive a certificate. See this Recipe in Teaching and Learning course.
