Moodle: Activities & Resources: Adding Quiz Questions to a Quiz

After creating a Quiz, you must add questions to it. You can create new questions, or add questions from the Question Bank. If you create a new question, it will automatically be added to your Question Bank.

Note: Because questions are pulled from the question bank, changes that are made to the content or choices of a question will impact all quizzes where that question is asked. You can duplicate questions within the question bank if you want to create different versions of them.

To Add Quiz Questions to a Quiz:

1. Log into Moodle and select desired course.

2. Click on the desired quiz within the course that you wish to add questions to, then click on the Admin icon (gear symbol) to the top right side and select Edit Quiz.

3. Select Add from the right-hand side of the Edit Quiz screen.

4. Here you'll have three options for adding a question to your quiz:

• Add a New Question
• Add from the Question Bank
• Add a Random Question

5. If you select Add a New Question, the Choose a question type to add window will appear. Select your type, and follow the instructions on the next screen to create the question. Select Save Changes to save.

6. If you select Add from Question Bank, select your desired question and choose the assignment you wish to add the question(s) to by clicking the drop down arrow. After selecting the assignment, click Move to >> to save.

7. If you select Add a Random Question, select the category and number of random questions you want. Click Add random question to add the questions to the quiz. You can also create a new category with the random questions.

8. The question will then appear on your screen. It should now be added to your quiz.
