Quiz question order
Version A and Version B question order — scramble quizzes — free
Quiz question order scrambles the same questions into Version A and Version B so neighboring students see different orders. Paste one question per line, scramble, then copy or print each version. Shuffles use crypto.getRandomValues. This is not an LMS quiz bank and does not grade answers.
Why two versions are not list shuffle once
Teachers need two labeled versions on one page so printing takes one trip to the copier. List shuffle produces one order. Quiz question order draws two independent permutations, labels them Version A and Version B, and offers copy buttons for each column. It exists for classroom tests where seating is close but integrity matters. We do not store item banks on a server. Ads stay off. If you only need a speaking order of names, use presentation order. If you need draft pick slots, use draft order.
How to scramble quiz questions
Paste questions and generate Version A and Version B with independent shuffles.
Shuffles use crypto.getRandomValues. The question list can stay in localStorage.
How the two lists are built
Each scramble clones the parsed lines and shuffles with crypto.getRandomValues separately, so A and B are independent permutations of the same content. Copy buttons join lines with newlines for paste into Word or Google Docs. Nothing is uploaded. This tool does not randomize multiple-choice answer letters inside a question; paste full question text per line.
Who should scramble quizzes here
Teachers proctoring paper quizzes, tutors printing practice sets, and training facilitators writing knowledge checks can use two versions without a dedicated test platform. It is not for secure high-stakes online proctoring. Pair with printable raffle tickets only when the quiz is a prize event. TheOwlBay does not require accounts.
