Hi Bethre - yep, in Quizmaker, you can click Randomize Group on the toolbar to cause the questions to appear in a random order. If you have more than one question group in your quiz, you'll need to randomize each of them if you want each group to show questions randomly. If you want, you can also have just a certain number of questions appear from each group, rather than include them all. Here's a bit more about randomization and pooling.
Are the questions random so that the user gets a new order every time they do the quiz, or are they simply set in a new order which remains the same every time?
Hi Isa - try this: single-click on any quiz question in the group that you want to randomize. (When you do this, it'll appear with light-blue shading, as shown in question 1 below.) Then you should see the "Randomize Group" button become active, so that you can randomize the questions in that group.

Yep, the questions appear in a random order each time.
I am looking to randomize the questions in my quiz. I have the quiz open, but the 'Randomize Group' button is grayed out and I can't click on it.....

Perfect! That was a simple solution. Thank you very much!
No problem - glad you're all set now.
