Quiz and Survey Types
In Canvas, instructors can customize assessments by selecting from four distinct formats: graded quizzes, practice quizzes, graded surveys, and ungraded surveys. Beyond choosing the assessment type, various configuration options are available to control the student experience, such as the ability to display only one question at a time or to randomize questions through the use of question groups. For those looking to maintain academic integrity, additional security settings can be implemented to minimize cheating during the examination process. Furthermore, instructors have the flexibility to manage how results are handled, including the ability to view detailed survey results within the course. Review the Further Resources section below for more information on your specific use case.
