Active quiz
This is a type of quiz designed to be used in face-to-face lessons, with a classroom full of computers/tablets/phones.
The teacher creates the quiz in advance - adding question bank questions from the Moodle question bank. (This includes any question type available for Moodle)
The quiz can be set up to take the quiz in class groups (set up through the Moodle built in groups functionality). Group attendance may also be used in order only give present group members the final grade.
During the lesson, the teacher starts the quiz. Students can now connect to this quiz. Once the teacher is satisfied that all students have connected to the quiz, they can click on "Start Quiz"
Depending on the question settings the question will end automatically, or will need to be ended via the instructor's "end question" button. The instructor can review student responses in real time and re-poll the same question, go to the next question, or jump to any question set up for the session.
The teacher can, at a later date, go back through the results and, for each question, see exactly what answer each student gave. Students will also be able to view their attempts based on the display options in the quiz settings. Grades are also recorded based on the module settings for whether or not this particular quiz was assessed.

The original plugin (real-time quiz) was written by Davo Smith, to which the University of Wisconsin - Madison (funded by an educational innovation grant given to the Medical school) re-wrote the plugin, which is now named active quiz.
A big "Thank you" for your great work!
I'd like to get a 3.3 compatible version soon.
I apologize for not responding and not responding for the past half year to a year. It's been a pretty busy year for me, and I just haven't had a ton of time to devote to side/personal projects. My hope is to get a compatible version out by early January for the Moodle versions that are currently supported, and then look to add new features or other enhancements. If you have any of those, please feel free to open an issue on the GitHub repository and I'll look at them there.
Thank you all for the thank yous, and I apologize again for being MIA.
I have seen that you made some commits in the repository and also increased the version number in the end, saying it would be for a new release. However, you did not yet publish a new release here. I would be very interested if the current development state is seen as to be moodle 3.4 ready.
Additionally: Are you planning to implement the necessary changes for the upcoming GDPR policies (https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Privacy_API) in the next time?
Thanks!
Tobias
+1 for the 3.5 version. I really miss this plugin. Thank you John.
Active Quiz is indeed a great Module and I hope John Hoopes gets it working with the most recent versions soon. In the meantime, you may want to investigate the Live Report Moodle module that I have created. https://moodle.org/plugins/quiz_liveviewgrid. I have tested it with recent releases of Moodle and it seems to work fine with all these versions. Also, I have some new features that I will be releasing soon that will add even more capability to this module. (The new version, which I am still testing before releasing it in Moodle, can be found at its github site.) Bill Junkin, junkinwf@eckerd.edu
No intention to be unpolite or arrogant, just english is not my native language.
Good work
wondering if there are other reports, other than the overview report, we would like to export the results for analysis, thus the students have a record and the teacher sees the results per question (not just the graphs) Cheers Scott
You may want to check out the "Live Report" module. It is a "report" sub-module that can be added to the quiz module and it may provide the functionality that you are requesting. My email is junkinwf@eckerd.edu if you want to communicate directly with me. However, using this Moodle discussion works also.
