Can I prevent students from printing quiz questions in ICON?

You can set ICON to dis-allow Right-Click (Windows) or Control-Click (Mac):

1. Open your quiz and click the Properties tab.
2. Click Expand optional advanced properties.
3. Click in the do not allow usage of right-click when taking the quiz box and save the quiz.

However, students may still find alternative ways to print the quiz, e.g., by printing the entire screen, or copying and pasting.

You can make this inconvenient in two ways: place one question on each page of the quiz and present the answers to multiple choice questions in dropdown menus.

To display one question at a time:

1. Open a new or existing quiz
2. Click the Layout/Questions tab
3. Enter a 1 in the Place – questions per page box
4. Click Go.

To use dropdown menus with a multiple-choice question, create or edit the question (from within the quiz or Question Library) and select Dropdown under Enumeration.
