On the quiz editing screen you’ll create and categorize your quiz questions and then add them to the quiz. What you will see on this screen depends on whether students have already started attempts at the quiz.  
==How a Moodle quiz works==
{{Note|If you're new to quiz creation, try the [[Quiz quick guide]] first.}}
Once a quiz has been added to the course and the [[Quiz settings]] established,the teacher can start to build the quiz. The teacher can access the quiz to edit the questions by clicking directly on the Quiz name on the course home page or by clicking "Edit quiz" in ''Administration>Quiz administration.''  (You can also make questions in the [[Question bank]] without first creating a quiz. These questions may then be used later.)


*On the left side of the screen (or in the middle if the quiz has already been attempted) you’ll see a block where the questions you’ve added to the current quiz are displayed. If this is a new quiz you will not have any questions there and Moodle tells you this.
{|
*On the right side of the screen (if the quiz has not yet been attempted), you’ll see a [[Question categories|Categories]] section above the question editing block. This is where you can add new questions, edit existing questions, or move questions between categories. This is explained on the page [[Question bank]].

==Adding questions to a quiz==
|}
Once you’ve created your questions, you’ll need to add them to the quiz. There are many types in the [[Question bank]] that you can use. Alternatively, you may choose to [[Import questions|import questions]].


First use the 'Category' menu to select the category containing the questions you want to add (item 3 in the diagram below).
==Adding questions==


The chevrons (<< icons) to the left of the questions are used to add individual questions to the quiz. You can also select several questions using the checkboxes on the left of the question list and then click the "Add to quiz" button at the bottom of the list to add then all at once. If you want to add all the displayed questions then use the 'Select all' link.
Once you have accessed the quiz editing screen as above, you can add questions from a number of locations:
[[Image:Quiz.gif|frame|left|This shows four methods of adding questions including adding random questions dealt with in more detail below]]<br style="clear:both;">


Once you’ve added a question to the quiz, it appears on the left side of the screen in the quiz question list. The question is still selectable on the right, but you can only add it to the quiz once. If you select the question in the category list again and add it to the quiz, nothing will happen.
#Click the 'Add' link as in the screenshot below. (''Note that in the US, the term 'marks' is replaced by 'points'.'')
{{Moodle 1.8}}
#When it opens up, choose either to add a new question, to select a question from the question bank or to add a random question.
If you have created a lot of questions, you may want to sort the question list by type and name or by age. You can also choose to display the question text below each question name by checking the box "Show question text in the question list" above the question list (Moodle 1.8 onwards).


Once you’ve added the questions to the quiz, you can change the order of the questions by clicking the arrow buttons on the left side of the list of quiz questions.

===Creating a new question===
 
1. To make a brand new question, click 'Add' and then '+ a new question'.
 
2. From the next screen, choose the question type you want to add and click "Next" ('When you click on a question type on the left, helpful information appears on the right''. )

{{ Note| If you have a very complex question, and you want to check it as you go along, you can preview it and then click "Save changes and continue editing".}}
 
When a question has been created, an icon and words display its type (eg multiple choice). It can be modified by clicking the edit icon (eg [[File:editicon.png]]) and previewed by clicking the magnifiying glass icon.
 
As well as deleting individual questions with the delete (bin/trash can) icon, it is possible to delete more than one question by pressing the 'Select multiple items' button and choosing the questions to be removed:
 
[[File:multiplequestionselect.png]]
 
====Adding responses and feedback====
5. When you add responses and feedback, remember you can expand the toolbar to show more buttons.
 
6. You can continue adding questions this way, clicking 'Add' and '+ a new question' each time.
 
===Choosing a pre-made question===
*If other teachers in the course have made questions, or if a teacher made questions in an earlier quiz, these can be added to the current quiz by clicking 'Add' and '+ from question bank' .
* Click the + sign next to one question you want to add it (1 in screenshot below)
* If you have several questions, or you want to add all the questions, tick the box of each question or the top box (2 in screenshot below) and then click 'Add selected questions to the quiz' (3 in the screenshot below).
* To sort the questions, click the column headings. The default sort order (T) is short for question type. (2 in the screenshot below)
* To ensure all previously made questions are available, make sure to tick the boxes "also show questions from sub-categories/old questions".

'''Note:''' It is also possible to import pre-made questions into your quiz, from ''Quiz administration>Question bank>Import.'' See [[Import questions]] for more information. Sample questions are available from the [http://moodle.net/mod/data/view.php?d=1&mode=list&perpage=40&search=&sort=0&order=DESC&advanced=0&filter=1&advanced=1&f_2=Quiz+questions&f_11=&f_13=&f_12=&f_9=&f_8= Moodle.net content database.]
 
===Adding a random question===
As long as you have questions in the question bank, you can add random questions to your quiz by clicking 'Add' and then '+ a random question'.  This might be useful if you have students in a class taking a quiz at the same time, because they are unlikely to get the same questions at the same time. The same question will never appear twice in a quiz. If you include several random questions then different questions will always be chosen for each of them. If you mix random questions with non-random questions then the random questions will be chosen so that they do not duplicate one of the non-random questions. This does imply that you need to provide enough questions in the category from which the random questions are chosen, otherwise the student will be shown a friendly error message. The more questions you provide the more likely it will be that students get different questions on each attempt. When a quiz with random questions is retaken, the random questions will be different from the ones in previous attempts. For a discussion on the behaviour of random questions, see MDL-6340
 
The grade for the randomly chosen question will be rescaled so that the maximum grade is what you have chosen as the grade for the random question.
 
You can add one or more random questions by choosing the number and category in the question bank. Note the die icon to highlight random question selection.

{{Note|If you add random questions and your category of questions contains more than 10 different questions, when you look at the quiz statistics report related to position 1, it will not show them all on the front page of the report, just a summary, and then you have to click a link to drill down into the details (the report MDL-48092 is about the fact that working out which link to click is too difficult).}}
 
====Quiz question tags====
Note that although it is possible to tag questions, the feature does not currently work. See forum discussion: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=194119
 
===Question categories===
Questions can be stored and retrieved from categories in the Question bank. When you make a new question it defaults to the category with the course name. So if you make a quiz in the Senior Physics course, questions will automatically be added to "Default for Senior Physics". You can opt to have your quiz questions in a category of their own ("Quizname") or to add a subcategory.
   
   
You will also need to set the grade for each question. You can set the number of points for each question in the Grade column. This allows you to set the relative weight of each question in the quiz. You may want to make certain questions or question types worth more than others. You should also set the 'Maximum grade' for the whole quiz. This does not have to be equal to the sum of the grades for the individual questions. The grades achieved by the students will be rescaled to be out of this maximum grade. After adjusting these grade settings you should click on the 'Save grades' button.
To add a subcategory, go to ''Administration>Quiz administration>Question bank>Categories'' For more information on question contexts and categories, see [[Question bank]]
 
Users will have access to different categories according to their permissions. For example, a regular teacher might only have access to question categories in his own Physics course whereas his Faculty Head of Science with permissions in all science courses might have access to question categories in Biology and Chemistry as well.
 
==Quiz layout==
 
*You can choose in the Layout section of the quiz settings whether to have a new page for every question or after a certain number of questions.
* You can add a page break between questions by clicking the arrow icon (where the arrows are pointing away from each other) (1 in the screenshot below) A new page will be created. (2 in the screenshot below)
*You can remove pages by clicking the arrow icon (where the arrows are pointing towards each other). (3 in the screenshot below)
 
[[File:addpagebreak.png|thumb|500px|center]]
*You can also change the layout of the whole quiz by clicking the 'Repaginate' button:
 
[[File:repaginate.png|thumb|center|500px]]
 
*Questions may be moved by dragging and dropping using the crosshairs icon: [[File:crosshairsicon.png]]
 
===Section headings===
 
*Section headings may be added to each new page.
*For the first page, click the 'pencil' icon at the top (1) and add your heading (2):
 
[[File:sectionheading1.png]]
 
*For other pages, click the 'Add' link (1) and choose 'a new section heading' (2), and then add your heading as for Page 1:
 
[[File:sectionheading2.png]]
 
*The section headings are displayed in the Quiz navigation block:
 
[[File:quiznavsectionheadings.png]]
 
===Randomising the order questions appear===
 
*The order in which questions appear to the student may be randomised or 'shuffled' by ticking the 'Shuffle' box at the top of the screen:


==Adding random questions==
[[File:shuffle1.png]]


A random question will be replaced, when the student attempts the quiz, with a randomly-chosen question from the currently selected category. A different random question will be selected for each attempt.
*Where questions are in different sections (see ''Section headings'' above), each section has its own 'Shuffle' box to tick. This means that you can mix up questions on one section, but in another section, where their order is important, you can keep them in the order you need them to display:


This means that different students are likely to get a different selection of questions when they attempt this quiz. When a quiz allows multiple attempts for each student then each attempt will also contain a new selection of questions.
[[File:shuffle2.png]]


The same question will never appear twice in a quiz. If you include several random questions then different questions will always be chosen for each of them. If you mix random questions with non-random questions then the random questions will be chosen so that they do not duplicate one of the non-random questions.
==Making questions conditional upon other questions==


The grade for the randomly chosen question will be rescaled so that the maximum grade is what you have chosen as the grade for the random question.
*If using the ''Interactive with multiple tries'' or ''Immediate Feedback'' behaviour and with the navigation method set to  'Free', it is possible to make the display of a question dependent on a previous question being answered first.
*The question editing page will display padlock icons to the right of each question:
 
[[File:locks1.png|thumb|center|400px|Padlocks - all unlocked]]
 
*If you want to make a question, for example Q2, conditional upon answering Q1, then click the padlock just above Q2:
 
[[File:lock2.png|thumb|center|400px|Padlocks  - Q2 locked]]
 
*When a student accesses the quiz, they will see a message that Q2 is not available until they give a response to Q1:
 
[[File:lock3.png|thumb|center|550px|What students see]]
 
*In the Quiz navigation block, Q2 will be greyed out:
[[File:locksnav.png]]
 
*In the following example, note that, Q1 follows a description, and a description 'questions' cannot be finished. Therefore, Q1 cannot depend on the previous question. Similarly, Q4 follows an Essay question. The Essay cannot be finished during the attempt, so the following question cannot depend on it. Note the lack of padlocks in the following screenshot because of the description and Essay question:
 
[[File:conditionalquestionpadlocks.png|thumb|center|500px]]
 
==Assigning points to questions ==
''Administration > Quiz administration > Edit quiz > Editing quiz''
 
You can set how many points each question is worth by changing the number in the box to the right of each question and you can change the maximum grade by changing the number in the box top right at the top of the quiz. The default is one point per question and 100.00 maximum grade.
 
{|
|  [[File:allquizgrades.png|thumb|450px|Points per question and max grade]]
| [[File:editmaxmark.png|thumb|450px|Edit individual marks]]
 
|}
 
The quiz module will do any maths, so for example, a 2 point question will be  worth 2 times more when the Quiz module determines how many point out of 10 to award the student.


To add random questions, use the drop-down menu at the bottom of the Question Bank on the right. Select the number of random questions you wish to add, and click 'Add'.
==Previewing the quiz==
*You can preview individual questions by clicking the magnifying glass icon.
*You can preview the whole quiz by clicking the "Preview" link in ''Administration>Quiz administration>Preview''
*The quiz works like a real quiz so you can see your grades and any feedback for correct/incorrect answers just as a student would see them.


[[Image:Random.gif|frame|left|note that the menu for adding random questions is found below the questions on the right-hand side of the screen]]<br style="clear:both;">
'''NOTE''': ''To get a more accurate view of how a student would view your quiz, it is advised to log in with a  "dummy" student account created by the admin for testing activities. This is more reliable than the 'switch role to student' feature.


==Previewing questions==
*See also the question: 'How can a teacher '-dry run a quiz..?'  in [[Quiz FAQ]]''
Clicking on the magnifying glass next to a question in the Question Bank will open a preview window in which you can test the question.
{|

|  [[File:previewquiz.png|thumb|200px|Click to preview the whole quiz]]
|  [[File:quizpreviewed.png|thumb|200px|Quiz in preview mode]]


When you’re done, you will probably also want to preview your entire quiz by clicking on the '''Preview''' tab. This will bring you to the [[mod/quiz/attempt|Quiz attempt]] page, but in teacher preview mode.
|}


==After quiz has been attempted==
==After quiz has been attempted==
If the quiz has already been attempted you will see a notice saying that you cannot add or remove questions. You can, however, delete the quiz attempts (you access them clicking ''View x quiz attempts (y Students)'', where 'x' stands for the number of attempts by 'y' students) and will then again be able to add or delete questions as explained above. The reason you can not do this when there are already attempts is that this would lead to confusion, both on the part of the student and on the part of Moodle itself which would not be able to interpret the student responses that have already been saved.
If one or more students have taken the quiz, you will see a list of all the questions in the quiz and a notice saying that you cannot add or remove questions.


You can still edit questions and you can change the grade for questions. So instead of deleting a bad question you can edit it to explain the situation to the student and then you can set the grade for the question to zero. After you make such changes you should regrade the quiz by clicking on the '''Results''' tab and then the '''Regrade''' tab.
You can change the order of questions, regrade them, preview an individual question and click on an question edit link that will allow you to directly edit the question stored in the question bank.
{{Note| You can delete all quiz attempts by students and then edit the quiz as if no students had attempted it.  To do this,click the quiz name and then the Results link in the Administration block. This will present a list of students and their scores.  Click "Select all" and then "Delete selected attempts".}}
===Dealing with faulty questions===
There are several ways to deal with "bad" questions in a quiz.
::*Change the grade for the bad question to 0 in the quiz. 
::*Edit the question, changing what you will accept as a correct answer, then regrading the exam.  Remember when changing a question that the next time it is used it will be as it was in the last edit.  Also, regrading will only affect one quiz at a time.   
::*You can edit the question to explain the situation to the student and then you can set the grade for the question to zero. After you make such changes you should regrade the quiz by clicking on the '''Results''' tab and then the '''Regrade''' tab.  This will change the grade for all students who have taken the quiz so far.  Remember, if the question is used by another quiz, your "explanation" will appear as part of that quiz.
::*You can change the grade for the bad question and then move or delete the question from your question category.  The question will still appear on the quiz. Some places do not like to delete any question, but will move them to a "dead" or "bad" question category.
::*When you discover a bad question in your quiz, it may affect the question bank. Remember that a final might be made up of a certain number of random questions drawn from different question categories, the same categories used in a smaller subject quiz. It can be very important do something about bad or invalid questions in a question category when the categories are use in other places.

How a Moodle quiz works

Note: If you're new to quiz creation, try the Quiz quick guide first.


Once a quiz has been added to the course and the Quiz settings established,the teacher can start to build the quiz. The teacher can access the quiz to edit the questions by clicking directly on the Quiz name on the course home page or by clicking "Edit quiz" in Administration>Quiz administration. (You can also make questions in the Question bank without first creating a quiz. These questions may then be used later.)

Accessing the quiz to add or edit questions

Adding questions

Once you have accessed the quiz editing screen as above, you can add questions from a number of locations:

  1. Click the 'Add' link as in the screenshot below. (Note that in the US, the term 'marks' is replaced by 'points'.)
  2. When it opens up, choose either to add a new question, to select a question from the question bank or to add a random question.


Adding a question


Creating a new question

1. To make a brand new question, click 'Add' and then '+ a new question'.

2. From the next screen, choose the question type you want to add and click "Next" ('When you click on a question type on the left, helpful information appears on the right. )

Selecting a question type

3. Fill in the question form, making sure to give a grade to the correct answer.

4. Click "Save changes".

A question when it has been created
Note: If you have a very complex question, and you want to check it as you go along, you can preview it and then click "Save changes and continue editing".


When a question has been created, an icon and words display its type (eg multiple choice). It can be modified by clicking the edit icon (eg editicon.png) and previewed by clicking the magnifiying glass icon.

As well as deleting individual questions with the delete (bin/trash can) icon, it is possible to delete more than one question by pressing the 'Select multiple items' button and choosing the questions to be removed:

Adding responses and feedback

5. When you add responses and feedback, remember you can expand the toolbar to show more buttons.

6. You can continue adding questions this way, clicking 'Add' and '+ a new question' each time.

Choosing a pre-made question

  • If other teachers in the course have made questions, or if a teacher made questions in an earlier quiz, these can be added to the current quiz by clicking 'Add' and '+ from question bank' .
  • Click the + sign next to one question you want to add it (1 in screenshot below)
  • If you have several questions, or you want to add all the questions, tick the box of each question or the top box (2 in screenshot below) and then click 'Add selected questions to the quiz' (3 in the screenshot below).
  • To sort the questions, click the column headings. The default sort order (T) is short for question type. (2 in the screenshot below)
  • To ensure all previously made questions are available, make sure to tick the boxes "also show questions from sub-categories/old questions".
Using a previously made question

Note: It is also possible to import pre-made questions into your quiz, from Quiz administration>Question bank>Import. See Import questions for more information. Sample questions are available from the Moodle.net content database.

Adding a random question

As long as you have questions in the question bank, you can add random questions to your quiz by clicking 'Add' and then '+ a random question'. This might be useful if you have students in a class taking a quiz at the same time, because they are unlikely to get the same questions at the same time. The same question will never appear twice in a quiz. If you include several random questions then different questions will always be chosen for each of them. If you mix random questions with non-random questions then the random questions will be chosen so that they do not duplicate one of the non-random questions. This does imply that you need to provide enough questions in the category from which the random questions are chosen, otherwise the student will be shown a friendly error message. The more questions you provide the more likely it will be that students get different questions on each attempt. When a quiz with random questions is retaken, the random questions will be different from the ones in previous attempts. For a discussion on the behaviour of random questions, see MDL-6340

The grade for the randomly chosen question will be rescaled so that the maximum grade is what you have chosen as the grade for the random question.

You can add one or more random questions by choosing the number and category in the question bank. Note the die icon to highlight random question selection.

After quiz has been attempted

If one or more students have taken the quiz, you will see a list of all the questions in the quiz and a notice saying that you cannot add or remove questions.

You can change the order of questions, regrade them, preview an individual question and click on an question edit link that will allow you to directly edit the question stored in the question bank.

Note: You can delete all quiz attempts by students and then edit the quiz as if no students had attempted it. To do this,click the quiz name and then the Results link in the Administration block.
