Only Course Managers (Administrators and certain Professors) can add members to a certain Course, change the roles and manipulate the courses.

However, this does not go vice versa, so an Administrator of a Subpool is not necessarily an Administrator of a Parent Pool. Also, Administrators can assign roles within Pools and remove members, if needed.
About Questions

Categories are chosen from Courses or Subcourses that are available. After adding questions from a Pool one by one, an overview is created, showing the characteristics for your Quiz. Also, a cut off date must be chosen in order to determine in what time period is the quiz available. Once created and distributed, participants will receive a notification containing a link for the Quiz.

After that, points awarded for a correct answer and points deducted for an incorrect one must be determined. After setting the duration for the Quiz and Students selected, the Quiz can be uploaded.
