Hi all

I have a serious problem at quiz module

I used Moodle like online exam at specific computer lab, but i noted that the

quiz may open at many machines using same username and password,

which increasing the possibility of cheating.
 
Can help me to avoid this problem and prevent opening quiz already open at
 this moment.
THANX

The Moodle logs give the IP address of the student, so if a student tries to cheat in this way, it is very easy to catch them. Just tell your students this, and remind them of the rules your university has about people caught cheating (most universities I know have very strict rules about this). I'm sure that will be enough to eliminate the problem.
