1) Once editing has been turned on the class page. You can click Add an Activity or Resource on the page and choose Quiz activity from the list.

2) In the general setting name the Quiz (mandatory setting) and add a description. In this setting you can also choose whether to display the description on the course (class) page. 

3) - Set when the Quiz is open and closed, What the time limit is for students to complete the Quiz, How the Quiz reacts to the Timer reaching Zero and How long the grace period for submissions after Quiz expiry. 

4) Grade - Set the grade category (for use with the Gradebook), Set the number of attempts allowed and the grading method. The grading method is for when multiple attempts are allowed. When this is the case, the following methods are available for calculating the final quiz grade:

• Highest grade of all attempts
• Average (mean) grade of all attempts
• First attempt (all other attempts are ignored)
• Last attempt (all other attempts are ignored)

5) Layout - There are 3 settings for layout:

• Question order as show on the edit screen OR in a random order
• New page - control the number of questions on each page
• Navigation method - allow the students to navigate freely or make the quiz strictly sequential

6) Question Behaviour - There are 3 settings for Question behaviour:

• Shuffle within questions - If enabled, the parts making up each question will be randomly shuffled each time a student attempts the quiz, provided the option is also enabled in the question settings. This setting only applies to questions that have multiple parts, such as multiple choice or matching questions.
• How questions behave - The 2 most common behaviours are:
  • Deferred feedback - Students enter an answer to each question and then submit the entire quiz, before anything is graded or they get any feedback
  • Interactive with multiple tries - Students submit each question as they go along to get immediate feedback, and if they do not get it right immediately, have another try for fewer marks
  • See Questions Behaviours  for more information on the other options
• Each attempt builds on the last - If multiple attempts are allowed and this setting is enabled, each new quiz attempt will contain the results of the previous attempt. This allows a quiz to be completed over several attempts

7) Review Options controls what information students can see when they review a quiz attempt or look at the quiz reports.

8) You can set 4 elements within the  Appearance settings:

• Show the user picture - If enabled, the student's name and picture will be shown on-screen during the attempt, and on the review screen, making it easier to check that the student is logged in as themself in an invigilated (proctored) exam
• Decimal places in grades - Specifies the number of digits shown after the decimal point when displaying grades. It only affects the display of grades, not the grades stored in the database, nor the internal calculations, which are carried out to full accuracy (5 decimal places by default)
• Decimal places in question grades - Specifies the number of digits shown after the decimal point when displaying the grades for individual questions
• Show blocks during quiz attempts - If set to yes then normal blocks will be shown during quiz attempts

9) Extra Restrictions on Attempts - Set a password, specific network address and enforce a delay between student attempts at Quiz. 

11) Overall feedback is text that is shown after a quiz has been attempted. By specifying additional grade boundaries (as a percentage or as a number), the text shown can depend on the grade obtained
