Building a quiz

A quiz is a container for several questions. The learner sees one question at a time, answers it, and moves on. At the end they see their score and any review you’ve enabled.

Use a quiz when you want several questions graded together, with one shared timer, one shared attempt count, and one shared review screen. Use individual question blocks when each question stands on its own.

Insert a quiz

Open the slash menu and type quiz. Pick the quiz block. An empty quiz container appears on the page with a single question slot inside it.

The quiz container holds questions; you fill it the same way you’d fill the page itself. Open the slash menu inside the quiz and pick the question type you want. Repeat for as many questions as you need.

Questions inside a quiz behave the same as standalone questions: multiple choice, multi-select, dropdown, fill in the blanks, sequencing, matching, categorise, image hotspot — any of them.

Add and reorder questions

Inside a quiz, each question is a row. To add another question, open the slash menu and insert one. To reorder, drag a question by its handle.

The questions appear to the learner in the order they sit in the editor.

Set the timer, review, and attempts

A quiz’s settings sit in the quiz settings sheet. Open it from the quick menu when the quiz is selected.

The most useful settings are covered on the next page: Timer, review, and attempts.

What the learner sees

The learner sees the first question, with a progress indicator showing where they are in the quiz. They answer, the question is recorded, and they move to the next question.

If you’ve enabled the timer, a countdown sits at the top of the quiz. When time runs out, the quiz auto-submits with whatever the learner has answered so far.

At the end the learner sees a summary screen: their score, and any review you’ve enabled. They can’t edit a finished quiz.
