Types of Questions

There are 12 different question types.  It is best practice to use the Preview button for each individual question as well as the entire quiz to test for accuracy before a quiz is released.

Many quiz question types give the option to insert an image via rich text editor in the question text box. All question types allow you to include Feedback and Hints under the Options menu. Other options may be available depending on the question type (e.g., short description, add enumeration).

If you choose to enable LockDown Browser and Monitor for Written Response, Arithmetic or Significant Features type questions, do not check the option to Enable inserted images and attachments or Allow attachments to support answers.  It may cause a security risk.

If you would like to streamline grading of an essay or long answer type question, then add a rubric to a written response question type that will measure the student's performance against a set of criteria. Note: It is important to match the points of the rubric to the total points of the quiz question.

It is possible for students to retake a quiz or exam with only incorrect questions available to answer.  When grading, the instructor can only provide a score for the questions answered on that attempt.  Correctly answered questions add to the student鈥檚 score.  The overall grade calculation (e.g., highest attempt, lowest, first, last and average) is applied.  Average calculated grade allows for assigning partial credit for questions not answered correctly on the first attempt.

In order for students to be able to complete the subsequent attempts, the previous attempts must be published.
