Quizzes
Quizzes can be used to test your students' understanding of your Course content, to let them submit files like worksheets or designs, or to simply gain insight into their experience with your Course.
Assessments
Assessments can be added to your Website and Landing Pages to assess your members' prior experience and knowledge, to survey your site visitors, or to gather data to help you better tailor your content. This can be a vital marketing tool to gain a better understanding of your audience and their needs.
Note:
Assessments inside Courses have been sunset. This feature may still appear in older accounts. Quizzes are now available inside Courses and offer advanced functionality. Assessments can still be added to Website Pages.
Grading options
Unlike Assessments, Quizzes offer a manual grading option for short-answer and file upload questions, as well as the capability to share feedback on the Quiz results.
While both Quizzes and Assessments can be configured as graded or non-graded, only graded Quizzes let you choose whether or not you want to set a passing grade percentage (this is mandatory for graded Assessments).
