How to Export Quiz Answers

Test taking is of course important for Students, however, the most important part of the Test process for those giving the Tests, is the ability to receive results, and to then analyze the data received.

When you export quiz results, there may be times that you only require the score/percentage and other times where you may require more advanced details such as questions and answers for all those who took the Test.

With ClassMarker, you can export quiz answers, for all users who have taken your quiz. Exporting this data into one report will save time from having to view this in each user’s individual results pages.

Exporting Filter Options

When exporting results, there is the option to analyze quiz results as you require, by using the filter drop-downs. These filter selections are optional. Let's take a look at the different filter options available.

All Dates: Select results between a specific time frame by setting the Start Date/Time and End Date/Time.

Any Status and Score: Choose from 'Finished or In Progress', 'In Progress Only', 'Finished only', 'Finished and Scored'

Choosing 'Finished and Scored' will enable the option 'Filter by Score', which provides the ability to select percentage or points. With Percentage, select 'Equal to or Over' or 'Equal to or Under'. Choose Points and you can enter the points for 'Equal to or Over' or 'Equal to or under'.

Any Duration: Duration is the amount of a time a user spends in the quiz. You can select 'Equal to or over' or 'Equal to or under'

Graded: Choose to export results for only those that have been graded or only for those that have been not graded (all questions are automatically graded, except for essay questions).
