sets and random blocks deliver questions randomly to students, the two features have distinct differences:

  • You can manually choose questions from all tests, surveys, and pools for question sets. Random blocks draw questions from pools only, so you can't include questions from other tests or surveys.
  • You can search questions and browse metadata to create question sets. You can't search questions or browse metadata when you create random blocks.
  • You can delete questions in a question set. The question is removed from the set, but not deleted from your course. You can't delete questions within a random block. If you don't want a question included in your random block, remove it from the pool.

After you make your selections, you set the same points possible for all questions in the set or block. To assign a different point value to a question, you need to add the question individually outside of a block or set.
