| Switch to slide no 2 | Welcome to spoken tutorial. In the coming few minutes, we'll talk about how to work on quiz on the moodle site. |
| Switch to slide no 3 | Moodle quizzes have two major components: the quiz body and the question pools. Think of the quiz bodies as containers for various types of questions from the question pools. The body is what students see when they take the quiz. We would create a quiz body now. |
| Switch to Terminal | On the right hand top corner, there's a button called “Turn editing on”. Click on this button. For the correct session number, select the quiz from the “Add an activity” drop-down menu in the course section where you would like to add the quiz. In the “Adding a new quiz” page, give the quiz a descriptive name. Write an introduction for the quiz and any special instructions for taking the quiz, such as the number of attempts allowed or scoring rules. Select the timing options: to Open and close the quiz. <br>Determine how long students have to complete the quiz. At the end of the allotted time, the quiz is automatically submitted with the current answers. You can force a delay between multiple attempts of a quiz in order to prevent students from gaming the system by immediately answering the same questions. Select the display options: Set the number of questions the students will see at once. If you have more questions than the number of questions per page, the students will see a navigation button at the bottom of the page where they can view the questions on other pages. Set Yes to "Shuffle questions". This would randomly order the quiz questions when they are displayed to the students. Set Yes to "Shuffle within questions" to randomly order the parts making up individual multiplechoice or matching questions. Use "Attempts allowed" to set the number of times a student can take a quiz. You can set it to unlimited times or to a number from 1 to 6. "Each attempt builds on the last": If you allow multiple attempts, you can choose to let students build their answers over time. If you set this to Yes, the student’s responses from the last attempt will be visible the next time she tries to take the quiz. "Adaptive mode": In adaptive mode an additional Submit button is shown for each question. If the student presses this button, then the response to that particular question is submitted to be scored and the mark achieved is displayed to the student. The quiz will then allow the student to try again immediately, but a penalty will be applied to the score. The penalty is set in the Apply Penalties option. Select the grades options: "Grading method": If you allow multiple attempts, you can choose which score is recorded. Your choices are highest grade, average grade, first attempt, and last attempt. "Apply penalties": This only applies if the quiz is run in adaptive mode. "Decimal digits in grades": Use this to set the number of decimal places in the grade for the quiz. Select the options for students to review the quiz. You may choose whether to show students their responses together with their scores, the correct answers, and general and/or specific feedback. Select the security options: You can choose from "Show quiz in a secure window" or "Require password" or "Require network address" (This option restricts access to the test to certain IP address ranges.) Click on "Save changes" button and the quiz is created. |
| Switch to slide no 4 | Now we'll talk about how to create a question bank on the moodle site. |
| Switch to Terminal | Click on the quiz that you just created. You’ll see the "Editing Quiz" page where you will write and select questions to include in the quiz body. This page will have the title "Question Bank" on the right side. All questions that get added for this course would be seen under this title. As of now, this list would be empty. On the left side, "Questions in this Quiz" are shown. Currently this list will also be empty. There would be a "Category" drop down menu from where you can choose the catroegory of your question. If you want to add a new catoegory for your question, click on the “Categories” tab. Above the list of current categories, you will see a space to add a new category. Choose which category to place your new category in. If no other categories have been created, only Top will be available. Type the name of your new question category in the text box. Add a meaningful description in the “Category info” area. Click the "Add Category" button. Your new question category will appear in the list of current categories in the "Quiz" tab. From the “Editing quiz” page, select a category to which you want to add a question. The area below the category will display the question-creation block. Select the question type you want to create from the “Create new question” dropdown menu. |
| Switch to slide no 5 | Multiple choice, True/false, Short answer : Students answer this question by typing a word or phrase. You need to provide a list of acceptable answers. Numerical:This is a short-answer question that accepts a numerical value instead of a word. Matching:This is a standard two-column matching question. Random short-answer matching:The subquestions for the matching exercise are randomly drawn from shortanswer questions in the category. Description: This is for embedding some text in the quiz. (It’s not a question type.) It can be used to give mid-quiz instructions. Calculated: This is a mathematical equation with placeholders for values that will be pulled randomly from a dataset when a student takes the quiz. Essay: This is a question requiring a paragraph or two of text. Students are not assigned a grade until you have reviewed and manually graded the question. Embedded answers (Cloze): This is a question with multiple question types embedded within it, such as multiple choice, short answers, and numerical. |
| Switch to Terminal | Let's choose multiple choice question type. A new window will open asking to give the details about the question. Choose the category for the question, give a name to the question. Write the question in the Question text. Fill the grade and penalty (if any) for the question. Choose if one or multiple answers can be correct for the question. For each "Choice", fill the answer. If that is the correct choice, then give 100% grades to it, else give 0% grades to it. If the choice could be partially correct, then give grades accordingly. In case more choices than 5 are required for the question, click on "Blanks for 3 more choices" button at the bottom of the page. Input the overall feedback and click on "Save changes" button. The question name and type will now appear on the "Quiz" tab. Add more such multiple choice questions to the question bank as required. |
| Switch to slide no 6 | Now, we'll see how to create a question bank of different type of questions on the moodle site (other than Multiple choice questions) |
| Switch to Terminal | Click on the quiz that you just created. Choose the category for the question you want to add. Let's choose True/False question type in the "type of Question" drop down list. A new window will open asking to give the details about the question. Choose the category for the question, give a name to the question. Write the question in the Question text. Fill the grade and penalty (if any) for the question. choose the correct answer for the question, whether true or false. Give teh feedback for each answer and click on "Save changes" button. The question name and type will now appear on the "Quiz" tab. Add more such true/false questions to the question bank as required. Similar procedure has to be followed for adding other type of questions. For "Matching" questions, the question and the correct answers have to be specified. Moodle would itself shuffle them and present them as math the following questions. For Short answers, the answer would be a one word or a phrase or a single sentence. As per the correctness of the asnwer, allocate the grades accordingly. For Essay type questions, answers are not given. The checking has to be done subjectively by the teacher. For Numerical and Caltulated type questions, specify the unit as well in which the answer is given. Specify teh multiplier in case of right and wrong units.
For Description, specify the question that needs to be a part of the quiz, but does not have a direct answer. E.g. an unseen passage. The questions on the passage can follow after the "Description" question. |
| Switch to slide no 7 | Now we'll talk about how to add questions from the question bank to a quiz and see the grades after it has been taken by the students. |
| Switch to Terminal | Click on the quiz that you have created. On the right hand side, in the question bank, check the checkboxes for the questions you want to add in your quiz. Click on the "Add to Quiz" button at the bottom. All these questions are not a part of your quiz. Update the "Maximum grade" for the quiz based upon the total number of questions added. Once done, click on "Save changes". The quiz is now ready for the students to take. Preview the quiz to see if everything appears properly. Click on the import tab to import questions from exisitng text files or other formats. Sharing already existing questions with others is also possible through the Export tab. |
| Switch to slide no 8 | At the pre-decided time, the quiz would open and the students are expected to take it at that time. Based on the number of attempts and the duration for the quiz, it would close after the closing time. No attempts on the quiz would be allowed after that. Expect for Answers to Essay questions, all other answers can be checked for correctness by the system itself. |
| Switch to Terminal | Click on the "Results" tab to see the result of the quiz. The table would have the start time, end time, time taken, total grades and question-wise grades for all students. For "essay" questions, choose the "Manual grading" tab and grade the answers manually. |
