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.
The default quiz settings in Diggle are set so the presenter progresses through the quiz, in Presenter pace (learn more about the navigation modes here). The participants will see and answer the question simultaneously, and the correct results are shown automatically when everyone has replied or when the presenter shows the correct answers manually.
You can adjust these settings to customize your quiz, like setting the pace to Audience pace, allowing for asynchronous participation, or turning on timers to up the intensity. You can also use the quiz for a test, like an exam, with a passing grade (Read more here)
In the Builder, select one of the quiz-enabled slide types:
Multiple choice
Multiple choice questions with text or image answers.
Select Order
Arranging statements in the correct order.
Matching
Match statements or images with the correct option
Choose image
Select the correct image.
And there are more to come!
A leaderboard slide will automatically generate after each quiz slide to reveal points tallied for every question before it.
If you are creating a quiz from the Builder, these question types will be at the top of your Type tab. If you are creating a quiz in a Live session or a Survey, you’ll recognize the Quiz compatible question types by the Quiz icon next to the icon.
The quiz slides in Diggle work the same way as other Interactive slides in that you have the same question box and Options to fill out. Make sure that you mark at least one correct answer for your question. Then, toggle on “Quiz functionality” to make the interactive slide a quiz slide.
The settings you adjust under “Quiz functionality” relate to the individual slide. This means you can set different timers and maximum points for each question. Settings found under “General quiz settings” affect the whole Diggle.
Feedback about 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.
Timer per question
Set a specific time limit for each question (measured in seconds). Note that “Timer per question” and “Total timer” are incompatible.
Speed bonus
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. Speed bonus is only available if ‘Timer per question’ is activated.
Partial scoring
Participants get more points for each correct answer but will get 0 points if they get any incorrect answers.
Max points
The maximum number of points possible to get on that question.
Leaderboard after question
Add or remove the Leaderboard after the quiz slide.
Leaderboard after all quiz questions
Add or remove Leaderboards after every quiz slide in the whole Diggle
Show result on device
When this toggle is turned on, the participant will receive immediate feedback on whether their answer was correct directly on their device.
5 seconds countdown
Display a 5-second countdown displaying the question text before the participant can answer
Total timer
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. Note that “Timer per question” and “Total timer” are incompatible.
Passing grade
This toggle turns the quiz into a test. After toggling this on, you can adjust the passing requirement in percentages. [Read more about exam here]
