When creating an exam/quiz in Brightspace, by default, quiz grades should publish attempts automatically to students and also show their results in Grades (so long as the quiz is linked to Grades as a grade item). However, if these settings were changed, then grades will not auto publish to students or display in Grades. 

See each section below to learn more.

*To allow students to see answers to each question, see here.
