D2L Brightspace provides and analyzes quiz data. By selecting different types of quiz reports, instructors will be able to access class score distributions, quiz attempts logs, individual students’ activity in a quiz, and statistics of each quiz question.  

NOTE:
All statistics are calculated based on a user’s first attempt of the quiz. If a question is changed after attempts have occurred, then only the attempts on the newest version of the question are included in the statistical calculations.
