SPOTLIGHT: Quizzes Tool

Create a Quiz in eLearning@UNG (D2L)

The Quizzes tool enables you to create and manage graded assessments.

Create and manage quiz questions from the Question Library or the Quizzes tool and organize quizzes into categories to make it easier to find assessments with similar or related content.

Use the quiz preview option to test the accuracy of content and grading before you release a quiz. In a preview, you can answer the questions, view allowed hints, submit the quiz, auto-grade answers, read feedback, and view report results.

Once you receive completed quizzes from students, you can view quiz statistics, such as grade distribution, grade average, question statistics, and user statistics on the Statistics page.
