All instructors with editing permission added to your course have access to the quiz and to the question database. From Moodle team, ONLY the system administrator can access your course and the question database upon your request for help and support. As instructor with editing permission, you can track the access to your quiz using the report feature. This feature allows you to track the access of any user in your course including the administrator.

Yes, each computer connected to the web has a unique IP address. We can restrict the quiz to be viewed only by specific computers from specific computer labs on campus based on the IP addresses. This way you can guarantee that no one can access your quiz from outside the restricted area even if s/he is on campus. You can contact Moodle administrator on x.3586/3518 to take the range of IP addresses for each computer lab on the AUB campus.

Yes sure, students can take the quiz between the open & close date & time and off-campus if IP addresses field kept empty.

Currently we have 16 types: Calculated, Description, Essay, Matching, Embedded Answers, Multiple Choice, Short Answer, Numerical, Random Short-Answer Matching, True/False, Drag-and-Drop-Matching, File Response, Image Target and 3 music related questions.

More explanation can be found on the quiz settings page (information icon) or by asking us at extension 3580.

Yes sure, this can be made by shuffling the questions in the quiz or by shuffling the answers in each question, especially in the multiple choice and matching types. In addition to that instructors can use the calculated question type to give different variable. You can specify a range for each variable so that each student gets a different variable; all using the same formula set by the instructor.

Questions can be created in 2 ways:

• Manualy: by creating them in Moodle (link to the quizzes book) this way is tedious, since you are creating them one by one
• Import: questions can be created outside Moodle and then imported to Moodle. For each question type there is a syntax or script. You can take the template from the (information icon ) and create your questions in notepad or Word document based on the template. Then import your document including the questions to Moodle.
