  1. Ideas for using Quiz
  

  Quizzes may be used:
  - as unit or course exams
  - as exam practice using questions from previous years' exams
  - to deliver immediate feedback for printed workbook activities
  - to provide feedback about performance
  - for self assessment
  - (with the use of the Quiz creator role) to allow students to generate their own quiz questions for a practice question bank.

  2. Word your questions wisely.
  The challenge from the quiz should come from the subject, not the question legibility. You might be using the most technically advanced options, but if your questions are ambiguous or misleading, your students won't learn.

  3. Feedback, Feedback, Feedback.
  Good questions are nothing without detailed, constructive feedback - for each right and wrong answer and for each question as a whole.

  4. Use a mix of Question types.
  It's not just about multiple choice! Investigate the many standard and contributed question types to vary the students' quiz experience.
