Best practices for creating a Moodle quiz

Select an appealing quiz question

The quiz question is the single most important element of the quiz. Select a quiz question that is appealing and interesting to your audience. You can try a few options and A/B test them.

Keep the question and answers short

The questions and answers of your quiz should be short and simple to verify the questions are easy to understand and answer.

Use visuals in your Moodle quiz

Visual quizzes that include images on the cover, questions, and answers will get much higher participation rates. The images can also add context to the questions and answers.

Make it visible

Locate the quiz above the fold and/or use an enter/exit popup to verify your quiz is noticed by your audience.

Optimize your quiz

After you complete creating the quiz and send it out to your audience, you can track its performance.  In the results dashboard, you will be able to see how many visitors saw the quiz, started, and completed it. You will also have a drop-off report that will help you improve/remove questions that cause drop-off from your quiz.
