Use Quizzes to create assessments: you can create both formative and summative assessments and set them to be evaluated automatically.

• Go to Activities in the navbar of your course. 
• Click Quizzes. You will end up at the quiz homepage.  
• Click New Quiz.

1. Name the quiz.
2. Choose whether to have the grade recorded in the gradebook. You have three options:
   • Not in Grade Book if you do not want to include the grade in the gradebook;
   • Add to Grade Book if you want to include it as a separate grade in the gradebook;
   • Edit or Link to Existing if you want to link the grade to an existing grade item in the gradebook.
3. Do you want to include the grade in the gradebook? Then enter the maximum number of points students can get for this quiz here. Don't want the grade to be included in the gradebook? Then Grade Out Of will automatically show the total number of points for the questions.
4. Choose a Due Date.
5. Add a description if necessary.
6. Here you can import existing questions.
7. Here you can create new questions on the spot.

On the right-hand side, you will see four blocks. The first is Availability Dates & Conditions. Here you can add restrictions to your quiz. The second block is Timing & Display. Click on the arrow next to Timing & Display to open this tab.

1. You can set a time limit here. To do so, enable Set time limit and enter the time limit below it.
2. By default, the quiz attempt is handed in when a student reaches the time limit. Do you want to change that? Then click on Timer Settings. Here you can choose:
   • Automatically submit the quiz attempt if you want the quiz to be automatically submitted when the time limit is reached;
   • Flag as 'exceeded time limit' and allow the learner to continue working if you want the student to continue taking the quiz after the time is up, however, it will be marked as an attempt not completed within the time limit;
   • Do nothing: the time limit is not enforced if you want the time limit to be an indication only, however, with no further consequences.
   • Choose how many questions you want to display per page here.
3. Enable Shuffle Quiz if you want the questions to be displayed in random order.
4. Choose whether you want to allow hints (hints are created per question, however you can check here whether they are shown. This is useful when importing questions that may have hints attached to them.)
5. Enable or disable Brightspace's email and instant messaging features when students create a quiz.
6. You can enter any text for a header and/or footer here.

Click the arrow next to Attempts & Completion to open the third tab.

1. Click Manage Attempts if you want students to be able to take the quiz more than once. You can specify here how many attempts are allowed and how the grade is calculated.
2. If necessary, add the quiz to a category. On the quiz homepage, you can choose to sort quizzes by Availability or Category.
3. Under Notification Email, enter an e-mail address if you want to receive notifications of completed quiz attempts (separate multiple addresses with a comma).

The fourth block is Evaluation & Feedback. Here you can set what students see when they submit a quiz. Check out this manual for more information on this.
