22. Quiz

The Quiz activity in Moodle is a highly versatile tool, suitable for both simple multiple-choice assessments and complex self-evaluation tasks with detailed feedback.

Questions are created and managed in the Question Bank, and can be reused across multiple quizzes.

  • A quiz can be created by:
    • Adding the activity and then creating questions within it.
    • Or by creating the questions first and then adding them to the quiz.
  • Supports a variety of question types: multiple choice, true/false, short answer, numeric, matching, calculated, and more.
  • Allows configuration of multiple attempts, time limits, randomized questions, and personalized feedback based on answers or scores.
  • Can be used for summative assessment (exams, tests) or formative assessment (self-checks with explanations).
