Quizzes
• The quiz activity enables a teacher to create quizzes using various question types, including multiple choice, matching, short answer and true or false
• The teacher can allow the quiz to be attempted multiple times, with questions shuffled. A time limit can be set.
• Each attempt is marked automatically and the grade is recorded in the gradebook.
• Hints and feedback can be given.
Quizzes may be used• As course exams
• As mini tests for reading assignments or at the end of a topic
• As exam practice using questions from past exams
• To deliver immediate feedback about performance
• For self-assessment
Matching
The answer to each of a number of sub-question must be selected from a list of possibilities
Could be used with a labelled image (A, B, C, D etc) or matching terms to definitions
Question Settings – Feedback
Combined feedback allows you to give general feedback for incorrect/correct answers
Question Feedback – Question Feedback
Question specific feedback allows you to explain to students why they got something wrong to reinforce understanding
Quiz Settings - Timing
You can specify times when the quiz is accessible and when the quiz closes
By default, quizzes do not have a time limit but you can set a time. A countdown timer will be shown when students are taking the quiz
Select from one of the three options what will happen when the time limit is up
Quiz Settings - Grade
You can set how many attempts a students can take the quiz
When multiple attempts are allowed, there are different options to set the final grade
Quiz Settings - Layout
If ‘shuffled randomly’ is selected it makes it harder for students to copy from each other
For longer quizzes it makes sense to stretch the quiz over several pages by limiting the number of questions per page. This also prevents the quiz from timing out
Quiz Settings – Question Behaviour Students can interact with the questions in the quiz in various ways.
You may wish the students to enter an answer to each question and then submit the quiz, before anything is graded or they get any feedback. This would be the ‘Deferred feedback mode’
You may wish for students to submit each question as they go along to get immediate feedback and if they do not get it right, have another go for fewer marks which would be ‘interactive with multiple tries’ mode
Quiz Settings – Review Options
This section controls what information will be shown when they review their past attempts at the quiz or during the quiz
Quiz Settings – Overall feedback
Overall feedback is shown to a student after they have completed an attempt at the quiz. The text that is given can depend in the grade the student got.
For exampleGrade boundary: 75%Feedback: “A very good result – remember why you got some wrong!”Grade boundary: 50%Feedback: “read through your notes and find out/ask a tutor about topics you’re not sure about”
Quiz Settings – Common module settings
You can select whether the quiz should be organised into groups
If you are in the process of creating a quiz it is a good idea to ‘hide’ the quiz and ‘show’ the quiz when it is ready to be attempted
Quiz Settings – Restrict Access
Access from/to dates determines when students can access the activity
This setting determines any grade conditions which must be met in order to access the activity
Easy to review which areas may need to recovered in lesson
