Online learning is highly promoted within higher education institutions in order to assist in teaching and learning activities. Adoption of an online Learning Management System (LMS) is significantly vital, in particular, during the period of pandemic situations like COVID-19 for students to engage in learning. The identification and implementation of appropriate strategies are very useful to motivate students to engage in learning through online platforms. There seems to be a range of teaching materials available with LMS, and as an assessment and teaching tool, quizzes are very effective among these. Although previous studies have revealed quizzing as an effective tool for motivating students, there is less scope to research the effectiveness of quizzing on online learning engagement among students. Hence, the current research focuses primarily on determining how quizzes create an impact on student participation in online learning. This research is based on 864 first-year students' LMS login data to access interactions between the students and the course materials. It has been revealed that the effect of quizzing on student engagement in completing prescribed reading is strong. Quizzes have also been found to be a successful tool for encouraging students to complete preparatory work and to promote active learning
