3. Student results: check your settings

What’s changed

In Classic Quizzes, students could not see results, correct answers, or feedback after submitting unless you explicitly enabled it. In New Quizzes, the default when creating a new quiz is that students can see their full results immediately after submitting. This is easy to adjust before publishing.

Note: setting a manual grade posting policy in the Gradebook does not hide quiz results in New Quizzes — students can still see their results by clicking into the quiz directly. The result visibility setting inside the quiz is what controls this.

What to do now

When creating a new quiz, check the result visibility setting before publishing:

Go to Build → Settings
Enable Hide results from students
Choose what information you want students to see

Key takeaway: For newly created quizzes, review and adjust the result settings to match what level of feedback you want released
