How to create a quiz in the virtual classroom

In the virtual classroom the questionnaires can be useful:

  • to evaluate students (exams, questionnaires),
  • so that the students themselves can evaluate themselves,
  • why students practice certain content.

To create one:

  • Add an activity or resource (see the guide How to add an activity or resource).
  • Select Quiz.
  • Enter a Name and, if desired, a description of the activity, in the General section.

Configuration of a question: name, description and visibility to the course page

If you wish, you can make the description visible from the course page. If you do not check it, it will be displayed once the student accesses the activity.

 

Among other parameters you can configure:

  • the timing of the activity:
    • If you wish, you can establish dates during which the questionnaire will be visible and accessible.
    • Independent of the previous point, you can also establish a time limit to complete the questionnaire (Time limit)

IMPORTANT. If you establish it, try to leave some time in case someone has certain difficulties accessing it.

Setting the timing of a questionnaire

  • aspects related to Qualification. You may indicate:
    • the gradebook category in which this activity will be included,
    • The minimum passing grade – affects the color in which the student’s grade will appear in the Gradebook.,
    • the number of attempts allowed,
    • what is the grading method.

Quiz settings: attempts and qualification

    • while making the attempt,
