Does moodle have a module or if anyone knows of a way to have moodle pull random questions, rougly 100; out of a test bank of say about 1000 questions, and randomly generate them out to the student taking the quiz?

Random questions?

You do this by putting the questions into catagories, then creating random questions for that category.
Depending on the structure of the questions your test bank, you may have to rewrite the import code to directly import the questions (which fortunatly is pretty easy to do).
What format are the questions in?

WebCT format.
Re: Random questions?
Dear Trevor Delamor,
Have you go the questions imported?
The only thing a little bit tricky with process is that for historical reasons, untll recently the button to create random questions was called "create multiple questions." It still has that name in my installation. More recently the button has been changed to "create random questions".
Once you have imported your WebCT, questions and selected the category, you just have click "create multiple questions" or "create random questions" and it is pretty self explanitory. Just select the number of questions and press okay.
Please let me know how fast your are servered 100 random questions from 1000 questions.

Thanks, I haven't been able to get it work yet since i dont have all the questions done up yet. I was using questions I have made through the moodle add question wizard, and I was trying to randomize those ones. Once i get the questions done up and imported I will attempt it again and let you know how fast they load up
Thanks for your help.

Random Generation still does not work. What I am doing is this:
Create category called Test Bank
Create questions inside that category called test bank
Create a quiz called Testing Random Generation
Then I go to the "Editing quiz" mode
Then i click on "Create multiple questions" button
I choose 5 out of the 10 questions, select add to quiz and default grade to 1.
None of the questions get added to the quiz?
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
