How does the ELISE quiz work?
1. Optional ELISE lessons
When you access the ELISE course in Moodle, you will see four optional lessons: Define, Discover, Organise and Check. You can explore the lessons to learn more about studying at university. The pages in this ELISE tutorial are also available for more guidance.
2. Mandatory ELISE quiz
Once you feel comfortable with the content, you will complete the mandatory ELISE quiz. You must score at least 80% to pass. You will be prompted to keep attempting the quiz until you achieve a pass mark.
In the quiz, you will answer 21 randomised questions. Each multiple-choice question allows 2 attempts to answer correctly. For true/false questions you have 1 attempt. You can leave the quiz at any time to review the lessons or tutorial, and the quiz will save your progress and take you back to where you left off.
3. Give your feedback
Once you have completed the ELISE quiz, please complete the short feedback survey to help us improve ELISE.
