Turn your lecture notes into Moodle quiz sections

How quiz sections work in Moodle

Teachers who run a Moodle course often want one quiz split into topic blocks, such as definitions first and calculations second. Moodle handles this with section headings, and each moodle quiz sections entry you add groups the questions listed beneath it until the next heading appears.

• A section heading is a label only and does not count as a question or add to the grade.
• Moodle XML files import questions into the question bank, not the section structure, so headings are added in the quiz itself.
• Each section heading can have its own shuffle setting in recent Moodle versions, so questions can be randomized within one block.
• Review every generated question before publishing, since you are responsible for the accuracy of what students see.
