Who Uses This Feature
Before You Start
You need an Active classroom. Quizzes reuse the LMS quiz engine, so your questions and quizzes connect to the same records used elsewhere in the LMS.Building the Question Bank
The question bank is a reusable pool of questions. Build it once and draw on it across quizzes.1
Open the question bank
Go to
/classroom/{code}/questions.2
Create a question
Write the question, choose its type, and add answer options where the type needs them.
3
Search and reuse
Filter the bank by type or text to find and reuse existing questions.

Running and Grading Attempts
Students attempt a quiz from the activity page. Where the quiz is proctored, the attempt is monitored and recorded for you to review afterwards.1
Student attempts the quiz
On
/classroom/{code}/activity/{activity}, the student opens and attempts the quiz.2
Grade the attempt
Auto-scored questions are marked automatically; grade any questions that need manual marking.
When a quiz is proctored, the student’s camera and screen are monitored during the attempt and you review the captured snapshots and recording afterwards. Proctoring has its own consent flow, detection options, and review page. See Proctoring for the full workflow.
Results Feed the Grade
When a quiz is submitted and graded, the student’s grade snapshot recomputes automatically. Quizzes carry whatever weight the classroom’s grade scheme assigns them. See Grading.Upstream and Downstream
- Upstream (must exist first): an Active classroom; questions in the bank before you assemble a quiz.
- Downstream (this enables): quiz results feed each student’s grade; a proctored quiz produces snapshots and a recording for review (see Proctoring).
Best Practices
- Build the question bank first, then assemble quizzes from it: questions are reusable across quizzes and classes.
- Set the passing percentage and duration before students attempt the quiz.
- Tell students in advance when a quiz is proctored, and review the captured evidence before finalising borderline results (see Proctoring).
- Grade any manually-marked questions promptly so the student’s live grade settles.
