Creating a quiz in Diggle is an engaging way to test knowledge and encourage competition among participants. Here’s how to set up and run a quiz from scratch, including detailed settings and options. Of course, you can also use the Create Quiz feature on the home page or AI-assisted creation for an easier start. This guide is a detailed explanation of all the different features.
How does a quiz work?
Participants compete to get the most points by submitting correct answers to quiz questions.
The presenter progresses through the quiz, pausing for players to answer at each slide.
All players see the question simultaneously on their devices and submit their answers before time runs out.
You can also run a quiz without the timer or in the audience navigation pace, allowing for asynchronous participation.
Finally, you can also use a quiz for a test, like an exam, with a passing grade. Read here to learn more.

Step 2: Editing a Quiz Slide
Write Your Question
Enter the question in the ‘Your question’ box.
Activate Quiz functionality
Toggle the “Quiz functionality” button to activate quiz functionality. If not, the question type will behave like a regular multiple-choice question without scoring and a leaderboard.
Write Answer Options
Add answer options, marking the correct ones (Activate “Reply settings” to allow for more answers)
Change the Points Settings
Adjust how the points are counted.
Must not miss any: Players must get all the answers you’ve marked as correct to earn points.
The more the better: Participants get more points for each correct answer but will get 0 points if they get any incorrect answers.
Speed bonus (See general settings): When Speed Bonus is enabled, participants can earn bonus points based on the speed of their answers. The faster they provide the correct answer, the more bonus points they receive in addition to their regular score.

Additional Settings
Feedback about the topic
For each question, you can provide additional topic information to be revealed after participants submit their answers. This can include:
Detailed explanations for the correct answer.
Additional context or background information related to the topic.
Suggestions for further study or resources for deeper understanding.
This helps participants learn more about the topic and understand why their answers were correct or incorrect.

Step 3: Joining a Quiz
Invite players to join your quiz via a URL or QR code, just like for a regular Diggle. Participants can enter their names or choose nicknames.

Step 4: Presenting a Quiz
Once all players have joined, start the quiz. Each question will appear on both the presenter’s screen and participants’ devices (unless you have adjusted this in the settings or you have selected the audience-paced navigation). Continue through the quiz until the final winner is announced.

General Quiz Settings
Show leaderboard slide after all quiz questions
Diggle shows a leaderboard by default after each quiz question. Turn it off for manual control.

5-Second Countdown
Enabled: Displays a 5-second countdown before participants can answer.
Disabled: Skips the countdown, allowing immediate responses.
Seconds to Answer
Per Question: Set a specific time limit for each individual question (measured in seconds).
Total: Set a cumulative time limit for the entire quiz (measured in minutes). This is ideal for scenarios like passing grade exams where the focus is on completing the whole quiz within a specific timeframe.
Show Results on Device
Enabled: Participants see their results on their devices.
Disabled: Participants do not see their individual results.
Points Settings
Speed Bonus: Awards more points for faster answers. Only available per question, not the total quiz.
Max points: The maximum number of points possible to get on that question. Any correct answer will receive maximum points if the ‘Speed bonus’ box is unchecked.

Audience-Paced Quizzes
Set up self-paced quizzes for participants to complete at their convenience. Navigate to Settings and select Navigation mode ‘Audience (self-paced)’. You can also do this by clicking Share in the builders’ top bar. Participants will proceed through each question independently, seeing their rankings on leaderboard slides.
