Publishing Quizzes and Releasing Feedback

Publishing Quizzes:

To grade quiz attempts immediately, select the Auto-publish attempt results immediately upon completion check box. This setting must be turned on for grades to be automatically sent to the grade book, and for the default, submission view to be released to users when they complete an attempt.
Note: When this setting is enabled, students can view their evaluated attempt immediately upon submission.

Select an existing grade item or click Add grade item to create a new grade.

If a grade item is associated with the quiz, you can set quiz results to automatically export to the grade book by selecting the Automatically update evaluations in the grade book when published check box.


Note: If the Allow attempt score to be seen immediately upon completion check box is not selected, you must set attempts as marked in the Grade Quiz page to populate the grade book with attempt scores.

Submission Views:

Submission Views settings control what is displayed to students, for example, whether correct answers are shown. Questions that cannot be evaluated by the system, such as written response questions, are scored as zero until manually evaluated.

To release the submission view to students immediately upon completion of the quiz, on the Edit quiz page > Assessment tab, select the Auto-publish attempt results immediately upon completion check box. Submission views are set up in terms of a default view and an additional view. The default view enables all students to see their final quiz score immediately after submitting the quiz. A lecturer can edit the default view and show questions answered incorrectly, show questions answered correctly, show all questions without user responses, or show all questions with user responses. Displaying a detailed submission view to all students immediately after submitting a quiz would work if all students take the quiz at the same time. However, if students are completing the quiz at different times, and the lecturer wants to ensure that students do not share the answer key with other students, the lecturer may choose to create an additional submission view. This additional view only appears to students when lecturers publish the feedback on a quiz attempt.

The Default View given to students on Quiz Completion is below:
