General Properties
When you create and name your quiz, you can add it to a category, associate it with a grade item, and attach rubric criteria. The following options are available under the Properties tab:
Category
OPTIONAL: If the list of quizzes is long, they may be grouped using Categories. Group your quiz under an existing category or create a new category. Categories are useful for organizing quizzes with similar or related content. (These categories are unrelated to gradebook categories.)
Quiz Questions
Click the Add/Edit Questions button to create quiz questions, sections, information, and to manage other question properties. After you have added at least one question to your quiz, you can Edit Values to modify point values and difficulty levels and to make questions bonus or mandatory.
You can also enter a value in the Questions per page field to indicate how many questions are displayed per page.
Description
Create a description for a quiz that is not yet available to users. This will display at the top of the quiz start screen. (You must turn the description on for it to be visible; it is off by default.)
Page Header/Footer
Add information or instructions to the top or bottom of the quiz page. Change page header and footer visibility by selecting on or off.
