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.
How is it set up?
- In a course, with the editing turned on, choose Quiz from the activity chooser.
- Give it a name and, if required, a description.
- Expand the other sections to select the settings you want. With the default settings, students can repeat the quiz, moving freely between questions, each on a different page. There is no time limit and scores and feedback display once they have completed the quiz.
- To change any of these defaults, and for more information on configuring your quiz, see Quiz settings
- Click Save and display.
- Click Edit quiz
- Click Add and then click '+ a new question' (If you already made questions in the question bank, then click '+ from question bank' or if you wish to add a question randomly picked from a category of questions, click '+ a random question'.)
- Choose the type of question you want to add and then click 'Add' at the bottom:
- Add your question. For help, see the documentation Question types.
- Cick Save changes and repeat the steps for as many questions as you need.
- Click 'Save changes' when you have made your question.
- If you want, change the maximum grade for your quiz to reflect the number of questions.
Student view
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.
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 Once you have added all the questions you need, your quiz is ready for students and will already be visible on the page (unless you hid it while you were setting it up.)
It is a good idea to preview your quiz by clicking in the block Administration > Quiz administration > Preview. (1 below) You can then check for any oversights and edit a question directly from a link provided (2 below):

- click the quiz itself and then the link 'Attempts =' (where the number is the number of attempts) - or -
- click the quiz and then from the block Administration > Quiz administration, expand 'Results' and select the analysis you need.
