How To Take Quizzes
Overview
This section explains the procedure for users to locate and take your quiz.
For Users to Take a Quiz
Users can take a quiz if they know the quiz URL. The administrator can find out the quiz URL by going
to the Quiz Edit window and reading the Quiz URL address. The quiz needs to be active for users to
take it.
Once users go to this address, if the quiz is public they can immediately start the quiz; if the quiz isprivate, they first need to enter their login information (username and password).
Another option is to direct users to the page quizlist.asp (for example, http://www.yourwebsite.com/webquiz/quizzes/quizlist.asp) when they can see the list of available quizzes and click one to take it.
While taking the quiz, a new session is displayed In progress in the Users window. If the user submits
his/her answers, the session is finalized; if the user abandons the quiz, the session remains in
progress. In progress sessions are automatically deleted after 24 hours.
