Step by step, with screenshots. **Quizzes** in the sidebar holds two kinds of tests, built with the same editor: | | **Exam** | **Quiz** | | :- | :- | :- | | What it is | A standalone mock exam, sold on its own in the **Exam Catalog**. | A test inside a training, placed in one of its chapters. | | Learners find it in | **My Content → My Exam Simulator**. | The training's **Course Content** panel. | | Has its own price | Yes. | No: it comes with the training. | > [!NOTE] > > Everything below is for the **web app** on a computer, signed in as a **Content Manager**. *** ## Table of contents * **Step 1 — Open the exams and quizzes** * **Step 2 — Training and Chapter** * **Step 3 — Basic Info** * **Step 4 — Write the questions** * **Step 5 — Review and publish** * **Good to know** *** ## Step 1 — Open the exams and quizzes Click **Quizzes** in the sidebar. Two tabs sit at the top: **Exams** and **Quizzes**. ![The Exams table with titles, instructor, learners, number of questions, price and status](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/01-exams.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=6561a5f68cdd0ff90ef52670c329c21e) The Exams tab. ![The Quizzes table with each quiz's related training and related chapter](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/02-quizzes.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=87b81d96bd80845c1514653101f34437) The Quizzes tab, grouped by training. Each row shows the instructor (**Created By**), the **Learners**, the number of **Questions**, the **Price** (exams) or the **Related Training** and **Related Chapter** (quizzes), and the **Status**. The **⋯** menu offers **Preview**, **Draft** / **Publish**, **Update** and **Import Questions** (from a JSON file). The cloud icon at the top right exports exams or quizzes as a backup. *** ## Step 2 — Training and Chapter Click **Create Exam** (on the **Exams** tab) or **Create Quiz** (on the **Quizzes** tab). The editor has four steps: **Training**, **Chapter**, **Basic Info** and **Questions**. ![The Select a Training step with the list of trainings and the Your selection panel](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/03-create-exam-training.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=189f48bd56f51dbf60a607b9a01577c3) Step 1: pick a training, or skip it for a standalone exam. * **For a quiz**: tick the training, click **Continue to chapters**, then pick the chapter. * **For an exam**: pick nothing and click **Continue** twice. The steps show **Standalone exam**. *** ## Step 3 — Basic Info ![The Basic Info step with the Identity, Pricing & revenue and Attempt rules sections and the checklist](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/04-create-exam-basic-info.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=e803d7229d04cdca0712e386915f0a61) Step 3: Basic Info. | Section | Fields | | :- | :- | | **Identity** | **Exam Name**, **Description** (optional), **Exam Category** and **Instructor**. | | **Pricing & revenue** | **Price**, optional **Discounted Price**, **Instructor revenue percentage**. | | **Attempt rules** | **Exam Duration**, **Max Attempts** (0 means unlimited), **Passing Percentage %** (70 by default) and **Has pause ?** (a break, timer stopped, after a set number of questions). | Click **Save & continue**: the exam is created **as a draft** and the **Questions** step opens. *** ## Step 4 — Write the questions ![The Questions step with the list of questions on the left and the editor of question 1 on the right](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/05-exam-questions.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=b52d4e7637903df6ed52bb8f82e6c77b) Step 4: Questions. **1. Add a question** **Add New Question** at the bottom of the list. **2. Answer type** **Single Choice**, **Multiple Choices**, **True Or False** or **Drag and Drop**. Each one is explained below, with a screenshot. **3. Question and answers** Type the **Question** (an optional **Question image** can go with it), then fill in the answers and mark the right one (or ones): see **The four answer types** below. **4. Explanation** Click **Add Explanation** under the answers, write why the right answer is right (bold, colors and lists are available) and click the button at the bottom of the window. The question then shows **Added**, and **update Explanation** opens it again. Learners read it after their attempt, next to the correct answer. ![The Update Explanation for question 1 window with the explanation text and the formatting toolbar](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/an7xPKtnijFP_Ner/images/content-manager-guide/exams/11-explanation.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=an7xPKtnijFP_Ner\&q=85\&s=f9de04e3c0f90f77389627a81f305538) The explanation of a question, opened with update Explanation. **5. Submit** When every question is complete, click **Submit**. The list on the left filters the questions by type, searches them and reorders them by drag and drop. A question with something missing is flagged, and the editor will not submit until it is fixed. ### The four answer types The **Answer type** at the top of a question decides what you fill in and what learners do. A question is right or wrong as a whole: learners get no half points. | Answer type | Use it for | Learners | Counted right when | | :- | :- | :- | :- | | **Single Choice** | One right answer among several | Pick one answer | They pick the right answer | | **Multiple Choices** | Two or more right answers | Tick several answers | They tick every right answer and no wrong one | | **True Or False** | A statement that is true or false | Pick **True** or **False** | They pick the right one | | **Drag and Drop** | Sorting items into groups | Drag each item into a group | Every group holds exactly its own items | Switching a question to another type starts its answers over. Switching back to the type it was saved with brings its saved answers back. ### Single Choice ![A Single Choice question with four answers; the second one, The project charter, is marked Correct](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/an7xPKtnijFP_Ner/images/content-manager-guide/exams/07-single-choice.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=an7xPKtnijFP_Ner\&q=85\&s=5a17b728a10160052907b93b4c1ac09e) A Single Choice question, with The project charter marked Correct. A new question starts with three empty answers: type them, click **Add answer** for more, and use the ✕ to remove one. Click the circle in front of the right answer: it turns purple and shows **Correct**. Only one answer can be marked. The question shows **Complete** once every answer is typed and one is marked. ### Multiple Choices ![A Multiple Choices question with four answers; Sprint Review and Daily Scrum are ticked and marked Correct, 2 of 4 marked correct](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/an7xPKtnijFP_Ner/images/content-manager-guide/exams/08-multiple-choices.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=an7xPKtnijFP_Ner\&q=85\&s=473eba712027aa3ab55f10badcb48ee8) A Multiple Choices question, with two of its four answers marked correct. Tick the box in front of each right answer: it shows **Correct**, and the count at the top right follows (**2 of 4 marked correct**). Mark at least two answers; for a question with one right answer, use **Single Choice**. During the exam, learners see how many answers to tick (**Please select 2 answer(s)**). The note under the answers recalls the rule: they must tick all the correct answers and none of the wrong ones. ### True Or False ![A True Or False question: a statement about the Product Owner, and the True card marked as the correct answer](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/an7xPKtnijFP_Ner/images/content-manager-guide/exams/09-true-or-false.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=an7xPKtnijFP_Ner\&q=85\&s=08b96a7e310a876c2c8dca2a455eac96) A True Or False question, with True as the correct answer. Write a statement in **Question**. The two answers, **True** and **False**, are already there: under **Correct answer**, click the right one. It turns purple and shows **Marked as the correct answer**. ### Drag and Drop ![A Drag and Drop question: the Predictive group holds two items, the Agile group holds two items, and no item is left to place](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/an7xPKtnijFP_Ner/images/content-manager-guide/exams/10-drag-and-drop.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=an7xPKtnijFP_Ner\&q=85\&s=eaef0a0b7090473db7141e1938810910) A Drag and Drop question, with four items sorted into two groups. 1. **Add the items.** Type one in **Write something and press Enter to add item** and press **Enter**: it joins the items to place, under the field. The ✕ on an item deletes it. 2. **Name the groups.** Two are there to start, **Group 1** and **Group 2**: click a name to change it. **Create Category** adds a group, and the ✕ next to a name removes it (a question keeps at least two groups). 3. **Drag each item onto its group.** The count at the bottom of the group follows (**2 Items**). The ✕ on an item inside a group sends it back to the items to place. The question is complete once no item is left to place and every group has a name and at least one item. If it still shows **Needs attention** after the last item, go to another question and back. Learners see the group names and all the items mixed together, and drag each item into a group. > [!NOTE] > > **Preview all the questions** shows a Drag and Drop question the way learners get it, without > its answer. *** ## Step 5 — Review and publish **⋯ → Preview** opens the exam page as learners see it. **Preview all the questions** goes through every question with its correct answer and explanation, without recording anything. ![The exam page of PMP Examen Blanc 12 FR with its rules and the Preview all the questions button](https://mintcdn.com/docs-strived/mW47iWgR0oToq_qs/images/content-manager-guide/exams/06-exam-preview.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=mW47iWgR0oToq_qs\&q=85\&s=a34e893f6c6d50a858c146c10d630737) Previewing an exam. When it is ready, open **⋯** on its row and click **Publish**: the exam appears in the **Exam Catalog** (a quiz appears in its training's chapter). **Draft** hides it again. > [!TIP] > > Before publishing an exam, check its price, its duration and attempts, and that every question has > a correct answer and an explanation. *** ## Good to know > [accordion] Can I give an exam to a learner? > > No, assigning exams to learners belongs to admins. > [accordion] Can I archive an exam? > > No, archiving is reserved to admins.
