Example Moodle quiz questions with answers

In Moodle, which question type grades a typed answer by comparing it to a list of accepted answers?Short answer. Each accepted answer is listed in the question settings, so the response can be graded automatically without manual review.

What file format does Moodle use to import questions in bulk into a question bank?Moodle XML. It stores each question with its type, answers and feedback in a structured file that the import tool reads directly.

In a Moodle multiple-choice question, which setting changes the order of answer options for each attempt?Shuffle the choices. It reduces copying by position, though it does not change which answer is correct.

What is the difference between a Moodle question bank and a Moodle quiz?A question bank stores questions for reuse, while a quiz selects questions from the bank and sets its own rules, such as time limit and attempts.

In Moodle quiz settings, what does Attempts allowed control?How many times a student can submit the quiz. It can be set to a fixed number or to unlimited attempts.
