If you haven’t already, you’re probably about to want to assess your students using the Quiz activity. Quizzes are loaded with features, and can feel daunting to set up, and that’s why, in our next just-in-time Course Site training of the fall semester, we will be taking an in-depth look into the Moodle quiz activity, specifically focusing on best-practices, key features and setup, and reviewing common questions and answers.
This session is aimed at helping faculty successfully administer a quiz in Course Site. By following these best practices and strategies, faculty can, in most cases, significantly reduce the amount of time that goes into setting up and configuring a course gradebook later in the semester.
