Quizzes

Overview

Quizzes ask readers a set of multiple-choice questions and show their score at the end, with the correct answer and an explanation for each question. Readers sign in to answer, which makes a quiz a simple way to turn casual readers into registered users.

You build quizzes in two steps: write the questions in a question bank, then create a Quiz experience that picks the questions to show.

Set up

1. Add questions

  1. Go to Features > Quizzes and click New Quiz.
  2. Choose the Project and enter the Question.
  3. Choose the Type: General, or Business to link the question to a Profile Field.
  4. Add the answers. Turn on Correct Answer for the right one. If no answer is marked correct, every answer counts as right, which suits opinion questions.
  5. Add an optional Explanation, shown after the reader answers.
  6. Keep Enable on and click Save Changes. Only enabled questions can be added to a quiz.

Your questions are listed under User Quizzes.

2. Or import questions from your articles

If your project is connected to Transfon Studio, UniSignIn can suggest quiz questions from your articles. Open the AI Quizzes tab, click Import Quiz, choose the Project, select the articles and click Import. Imported questions are listed under AI Quizzes with a status of Draft or Live. Review each one before setting it live.

  1. Go to Audience Operation > Experience and click New Experience.
  2. Pick Quiz, then click Next Step.
  3. Enter a Name, choose the Project and turn on Enable.

Put it on your pages

Place the container where the quiz should appear. Copy it from the experience, which fills in its ID, or replace EXPERIENCE_ID yourself:

<div data-exp="unis-quiz" data-exp-id="EXPERIENCE_ID"></div>

If an Orchestration already delivers this Quiz to the page, you can leave out data-exp-id.

How readers take a quiz

  • Readers who are not signed in are asked to sign up or log in when they pick their first answer.
  • After each answer, the quiz shows whether it was right, marks the correct answer and shows the explanation. It then moves on to the next question, or readers click Next. Prev goes back to an earlier question.
  • At the end, readers see their score and a short verdict. Review Answers lists each question with their answer and the correct one, and Restart starts the quiz again.
  • Answers are saved as readers go. If they leave before the end, the quiz picks up where they stopped next time they open it signed in. Answering a question again replaces their earlier answer.

See the results

Go to Features > Results and open the quiz. You see how many readers played, their average score, and for each question how many answered, how many got it right and how often each answer was picked.
