Online Quiz Settings in D2L

Learn how to set up asynchronous and synchronous online quizzes in D2L. This video covers the settings in the sidebar when creating a quiz, such as availability dates, time limits, attempts, and results displays. Creating questions and printing quizzes is covered in a separate video.

Don't forget to offset dates when copying quizzes to a new course, or add a third results display view to each quiz that hides the questions and answers on the end date of the course.
