How a Moodle quiz link works in practice

Most Moodle courses connect quizzes through the question bank rather than a single web address, so a moodle quiz link usually means importing questions and adding a Quiz activity that uses them.

Moodle XML import places questions in your question bank for reuse.
A Quiz activity is what students open, attempt and get graded on.
Review generated questions before import so wording matches your course.
Exports are paid features; the free plan study view stays in the browser.

Example Moodle quiz link questions

Where do imported questions live in Moodle before they are added to a quiz?In the course question bank. Quiz activities pull questions from the bank, so one imported question can be reused across several quizzes.

Which Moodle activity lets students attempt a graded, time-limited quiz?The Quiz activity. It handles attempts, grading and time limits, while a URL resource only links students to an external web page.

What does a URL resource do in a Moodle course?It adds a clickable link to an external web page. Students are taken off the course page, and the link does not record quiz scores.

What file format does Moodle's question import accept for question sets?Moodle XML. The Import option in the question bank reads this format, which is the file type DeckOwl exports on the Pro plan.

After importing questions, what must you do before students can answer them?Add a Quiz activity and select the questions from the bank. Students only see questions included in a quiz, not the question bank itself.
