How do I create a File Upload quiz question?

With the Questions tab [1] selected inside a new quiz, click the New Question button [2].

Quiz questions are not automatically numbered for instructors. To add a custom name to your quiz question, enter the name in the question text field [1]. Custom names can help you identify quiz questions more easily. Regardless of the question name, students always see quiz questions in numerical order (i.e. Question 1, Question 2).

Click the drop-down menu and select the File Upload question type [2].

Enter number of points the question is worth (quiz totals are calculated based on combined total of questions) [3].

Note: Quiz point values support up to two decimal places. Entering more than two decimal places will round the point value to the nearest hundredth.

To complete the question, you will need to enter the following details:

1. The question text (use the Rich Content Editor to include video, images, math equations, or flash activities)
2. Text to provide general feedback

Click the Update Question button.

Add additional individual questions as needed.

This is what a student sees when they encounter a File Upload question in a quiz.

Student will receive a confirmation that their file has been uploaded [1]. They can also remove their file [2] and submit a new one.

After submitting the quiz, students will see their file submission [1].

No credit will be assigned until the instructor has evaluated the file upload submission and assigned points in the Gradebook or the SpeedGrader [2].

Notice the answer comment reminds students that their quiz grade will be incomplete until the instructor has manually graded the file upload question [3].

To download your students' submitted files for grading, you can click the Download All Files link [1] within the Quiz options, or you can open SpeedGrader [2] and open a link to the file directly within the quiz.
