Question Creation

We will take Multiple Choice question as the example to show you how to create a question for a quiz.

1. Create a Multiple Choice question

Select Multiple Choice in the New Question list and you can edit the question in the Question Editing window.

2. Enter question in the question text field

With the powerful editing features, you can easily insert text, images, equations, hyperlinks and edit fonts in the question in the text field. And you can insert some hidden notes as the extra instruction for this question.

Besides, QuizCreator provides the media area for you to insert images, audio and video files. Insert audio - You can record a sound clip, import an audio file or even convert the text to speech for your question. Insert video - you can insert a FLV or SWF file to the question.

The inserted picture or video will be displayed next to the question in the published quiz, just like the following figure shows.

3. Enter the choices in the Choices text field

Enter the choices in the Choices text field and mark the correct answers in the correct column. You should enter two choices at least, and nine at most. Images, equations, hyperlinks and fonts editing are also available in the choices.

4. Set feedback for the multiple choice question

You may provide some interactive feedback to quiz takers when they answer the question. Select feedback type from the drop-down list in the Feedback group.

You can set the feedback message by question or by answer.

• None: No feedback to the quiz taker after the answer is submitted.
• By Question: The feedback is based on whether the question is answered correct or not.
• By Answer: The feedback is based on the single choice of the answers. Quiz takers select different choices and get different feedback.

After choosing the feedback type, you can now put in the feedback message for correct and incorrect choices in the Question Feedback pane. Pictures, equations, and audio files can be inserted if click More button.

Branching is also available in the Feedback group. You can branch quiz takers to different questions based on their responses to the previous questions. Like feedback, branching can also be specified by question or by answer. It will guide test takers to "continue", "finish" or "go to specific question".
