Benefits of quiz

With Moodle Quiz, you can:

  • Set up immediate feedback for students or delay feedback until the Quiz has closed
  • Set up quizzes with automatic marking to reduce your workload
  • Create a question bank of quiz questions that can be reused
  • Students are familiar with the platform which reduces overhead in preparing students for this format

In addition to these benefits, Moodle Quiz has a lot of features to provide you with flexibility in creating your online assessments.

  • Quizzes can be linear or randomised with dependent questions
  • Quizzes can be set up to allow multiple attempts
  • Most question types can be graded automatically with automated feedback that varies with the student response
  • Can use datasets that create randomisation of some question types to preclude collusion
  • Can create time-restricted assessments to require students to start and finish the assessment within a specific time period (be mindful of potential internet bandwidth and connectivity issues when restricting the assessment time)

Note: Essay type questions require you to manually enter the grade and feedback.
