Quizzes in Canvas can be used in various ways, most commonly in the form of different questions that you need to answer. They can be used for practicing specific parts of the curriculum, testing knowledge, or as part of formative assessments. Some quizzes may be mandatory to complete, while others may not. Certain quizzes may have specific score requirements. A quiz can also have a limited or unlimited number of attempts. The questions can include multiple-choice questions, short answers, or other question types.

Quizzes can be found under "Quizzes" in the course navigation. They can also be located under "Assignments." Additionally, instructors may organize quizzes under one or more modules. After completing a quiz, you should typically be able to see the number of correct answers you achieved.
