==What is the Quiz activity?==
* The Quiz is a very powerful activity that can meet many teaching needs, from simple, multiple-choice knowledge tests to complex, self-assessment tasks with detailed feedback.
* Questions are created and stored separately in a [[Question bank]] and can be reused in different quizzes.
*When creating a Quiz you can either make the questions first and add them to the Quiz, or add a Quiz activity (as below) and create the questions as you go along.


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.

Quizzes are visible on the page once you add them so if you don't want them to see it as you are creating questions, hide it until you are ready.


* Quizzes can be [[Quiz settings|configured]] to allow multiple attempts. Each attempt at a question is automatically marked, and the teacher can choose whether to give feedback and/or show the correct answers.  
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.
There are many ways to [[Using Quiz|use a quiz]].


* 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]].
[[File:StudentViewQuiz.png|center|600px]]


* 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.  
Students can flag questions to alert the teacher to possible queries.


* A single quiz can automatically select random and/or specific questions from different [[Question bank|categories]] of questions.
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:


* 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 types|question type]].

* The quiz settings allow different [[Adding/updating_a_quiz#Display_section|display methods]]. They can randomize the questions for each student and or randomize the answers for each student.
===Teacher view===
Teachers should preview the quiz to ensure it displays as desired for students:

Grades can be viewed either by clicking the quiz and the link 'Attempts' when students have attempted the quiz, or from the Actions menu top right > Results (as in the above screenshot)


* The teacher can determine the number of questions on each page of questions the student sees.  The teacher can change the position of any question in the quiz. It is possible to put a label with information any place between questions.

* The teacher can [[Quiz settings|choose]] how questions behave during the quiz. It can be like a classic test, where the student gets no feedback while attempting the test, only later. Alternatively, Moodle can reveal the grades and/or feedback to the student during the quiz, and perhaps even give them another chance to answer the question (for fewer marks) having read the feedback.
