Instant Web Quiz Generator / Taking A Quiz How To Take Single Answer Quizzes: |
|
A quiz with "Single Answer Questions" created with the Instant Web Quiz Generator can have up to fifty questions in total, and each question having up to ten possible answers. What I mean by "Single Answer Questions" is that each question can only have one correct answer. This software can also create quizzes with multiple choice questions, but that's covered later. Here's an example of a small quiz with single answer questions: |
|
Of course the questions and answers in this example aren't particularly meaningful, but they're to give you an idea of the look and feel. And as you can see - it's clearly labeled which are the correct and incorrect answers in this case. So here I choose just the answers labeled as "Correct" by clicking there for each question: |
|
What I then do - and what you would do once you're happy with your answers is click upon the button Grade Me. What that does is then check your answers, and take you to the Results page - which looks like this: |
|
As you can see - the Results page gives you three pieces of information:
If you then want to take the quiz again, you simply click on the button Take The Quiz Again: |
|
Now in this example I'm going to enter a wrong answer for every single question: |
|
And then after clicking on the Grade Me button, I get the following results - which are to be expected: |
|
Now if I take the quiz once again - with two answers incorrect and one correct: |
|
After clicking on the Grade Me button, I get the results I expect:
You can see how this looks below. Now this time, I'm going to assume I didn't know exactly which questions I answered incorrectly, so I'd like to see exactly where I went wrong -- I can do so by clicking on the View Solution button: |
|
And what the quiz then does is take me back to the quiz page so that I can check my answers AND what it also does is popup a Solution window - like this: |
|
The Solution window tells me what the correct answers are for each question. And the questions I answered incorrectly - the solutions appear in red text. The questions I answered correctly - they appear in default black text. One important point regarding the Solutions window: It's a popup window as you can see. It's a smallish window that pops up over the quiz so that you can compare your answers with the actual correct answers. However, if you have a popup blocker installed - for example as part of the Google toolbar, the Alexa toolbar, or some other popup blocker -- then chances are you won't see the Solution window. Therefore - in this case, if you want to check your answers, you're going to have to temporarily disable your popup blocker. Now here's another feature of the quiz - the Reset button. If at any time you want to clear all the answers you've already entered into the quiz, just click on the Reset button like this: |
|
And you'll see that immediately all the answers you've already entered are cleared: |
|
Now - another important feature these quizzes have is that they check what you've entered before giving you any results. In other words - the quiz needs ALL the questions to be answered before it can grade you. So in the example of our three question quiz below, if I don't answer any questions before clicking Grade Me - I'll receive the following error prompt: |
|
And then if I was to only answer question 1 before clicking upon the Grade Me button: |
|
I'll then see the following error prompt: |
|
And even if after answering both questions one and two, I neglect to answer the third question and click on the Grade Me button, the quiz will pop up the following error prompt: |
|
These prompts - as mentioned, are because the quiz won't issue any results for the quiz until all the questions have answers. Now one final example for this page - still taking our quiz with just three questions: I answer every question correctly, click upon the Grade Me button, and then once on the Results page click on the View Solution button -- I'll then see the Solution popup with all the correct answers displayed. But because I got ALL the questions correct, all the answers display in the default black text, as opposed to displaying in red text for any questions I may have got incorrect: |
|
So that's how you can take a quiz with single answer questions created by the Instant Web Quiz Generator. In the next section we'll cover how to take quizzes with multiple choice questions. And just before we leave this section - I'll repeat these points again because these are important points:
