  4. Under Deliverables, open Draw from a question bank and choose your bank.
  5. Type how many questions each student should get. Each student gets their own set from the bank.

  7. Switch off Save as Draft so students can see the quiz.
  8. This is the quiz as a student sees it. It shows the time limit and the number of questions before anything begins.
  9. When the student clicks Start, the timer begins and the quiz appears below it.
  10. Opening the quiz shows the student's five questions and the time left.
