You can either add your own questions or import questions from an external file.  Your quizzes can contain different types of questions, including multiple choice, fill-in, true/false, long essay or short answer, and ordering.  You can also spell check a quiz before printing or posting it to your class webpage.

The Questions tab contains the following options:

  • Quiz Info: You can edit existing quiz information.

  • Edit Questions: You can create quizzes and tests with multiple choice, fill-in, true/false, long essay or short answer, and ordering questions.

    To add a question, select the question type and enter the question and answer in the appropriate fields.  You can choose to randomize the order of choices in multiple choice and true/false questions.  If not specified, points will be evenly distributed among all questions of a quiz.



    Edit a question: Select questions you want to edit via the Layout View, or use the Previous Question or Next Question links.  When done, click the Save Changes button to save your changes.
