About Quizzes/Surveys

Use Quizzes/Surveys to create and administer quizzes and surveys.

Quizzes are texts for which grades are assigned. Grades and statistics can be released to both you and to students. Depending upon the type of questions in a quiz, quizzes can be completely or partially graded by WebCT, marked by an assigned teaching assistant, or by yourself. Note: WebCT is unable to automatically grade paragraph questions.

Surveys are anonymous tests for which no grades are assigned, but which provide you with statistics. Survey responses are automatically tabulated, and the results are summarized. Tip: Because the results are anonymous, surveys are ideal for course evaluations or for canvassing opinions on an issue discussed in the course.

You can:

• create quizzes and surveys.
• control how and when students have access to quizzes and surveys.
• create a database of quiz and survey questions.
• select questions for inclusion in quizzes and surveys.
• grade or regrade student submissions.
• display and analyze quiz and survey results.
• create quiz questions on your own computer and import them into WebCT.
