Administering a Realtime Quiz

The Realtime Quiz activity module enables students to participate in timed online quizzes with their classmates, both racing the clock and challenging themselves with their peers. Because these quizzes are synchronous (or in real time), participants need to be logged in at the same time to participate, and a teacher needs to be logged in to both start the quiz and to show each question.
Realtime Quiz sessions can be a fun way to review material and engage learners with the content in a game-style activity.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Administering the Realtime Quiz Activity
1. Remember that the Realtime Quiz activity is synchronous (in real time), so set a time with students to run the quiz remotely or run the quiz in a computer lab/classroom with everyone present and logged in to course.
Note: As the quiz requires a teacher to run it, if you want to view the quiz as a student, you will have to open a new window or tab, start/run the quiz on one tab, and experience the quiz as a student on the other. Type a session name and click on the Start quiz button in the 'teacher' window. Click on the Join quiz as a student button in the 'student' window.
In the following scenario, the Teacher is Ms. Beverly.
The student is Ahmed.

10. After the first question is completed, the instructor clicks on the Next button.
