Time for action — setting up a Moodle quiz as test on rivers and continents
Let's create a quiz to test our students' knowledge about the world's rivers in a timed assessment and let's jazz it up with some multimedia. From the Add an activity drop-down menu, we're going to choose Quiz. Now, it's over to you:
1. In the Name block, type a name for your quiz that the pupils will see and click on.
2. In the Introduction block, enter a description of the quiz. Check the box Show description on the course page if you want this to appear on the main page.
3. Select your options for the quiz in the boxes that follow—if in doubt, leave them the way they are; it's quite safe! Anything you don't understand, ignore!
4. Use the following table to help you make your choices (for our test, we need to set the timer as well as a password):
Item
What it is
What I think
Timing
Set start, end, and length of test—we've seen this before.
Select Enable time limit for them to see a clock as they work.
