As a part of work in our elementary education e-development group we’ve payed a lot of attention to different possibilities of evaluation and assessment via quiz in Moodle (Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment). The technological development enables us to assess and evaluate with the help of ICT. As the best option we have chosen the open source freeware program with safe online learning environment. Written form of knowledge assessment was used as a base for making the application Quiz. Advantages and disadvantages were thoroughly analyzed and the recommendations for the composition of a valid test were taken into account. We took different cases of tests and adjusted them for use in the Quiz aplication. Quiz helps teacher with the preparation of an online exam, it can also help determine the time and number of attempts given to students in the virtual online classroom. Supported types of questions are: true-false, marking single and multiple correct answers, short written answers to essay type questions. Feedback depends on the type of question, simple ones are provided automatically, the essay type answers must be checked and graded  manually. Teacher has the option to store data in a collection and to use them in all kind of combinations. Results can be displayed in two different ways, individually or for the whole class together.
