Quiz activity (Moodle)

The Quiz is a very powerful activity that can meet many teaching needs, from simple, multiple-choice knowledge tests to complex, self-assessment tasks with detailed feedback. Questions are created and stored separately in a Question bank and can be reused in different quizzes. They can be graded automatically by the platform, or they may require grading of the answers to some questions by a tutor (for example, short essay questions or open-ended questions).
