Welcome to the exercise creation page !
First step : Specify the exercise's properties.
You are going to input the information that will distinguish each quiz from the other,
making it searchable within our search engine accessible in the « Exercises/Quizzes » tab.
- Specify the title you wish to give to your exercise
Example : « The second world war »
.
- Input some keywords, separating them with comas
Example : « 1939, 1945, Normandy, World War, second,… »
.
- Type a detailed description of your exercise
Example : « This exercise is about the second world war. There are 10 multiple choice questions, and 3 gap-fill texts. You have 3 minutes for each question. Good luck ! »
Now you only have to specify the exercise's educational level,
its language, its difficulty and its category.
During this first phase, it is important to aim for precision as well as the conciseness of the description.
Please note that you can modify this information anytime when clicking on «Test propriety» in the exercise creation interface.
Now let's check the exercise creation !
At first, your exercise is only composed of one page. You can add another one anytime you want if you click on « Add a page », on your left, or remove a page by clicking on « Remove this page
».
Each page can have as many questions as you like.
Click on « Add a question » and chose which type of question you want to add (Comment, Multiple choice question, Gap-fill text, Crosswords,
Labeled picture...).
For more extensive information on the question types, please go to Step 3 : Question types.
You don't know which type of question to chose from ?
Here follows a short description to discover what can be done with SoQuiz :
- Comment: You can insert comments freely.
Example : « Watch out for tricky questions, Good luck… »
.
- Multiple choice questions : As its name implies, you have a question followed by different answers. Then, you have to specify which answers are correct or wrong.
- Gap-fill texts : With gap-fill texts, you can create sentences, poems, text's quotes...with gaps for the player to fill. You only need to know that : a gap is put between brackets.
Example : Victor {Hugo} wrote "les {Misérables}"
.
- Crosswords : Automatically generate crosswords ! SoQuiz does it all by itself, you only have to type in the list of words you are willing to use.
Should there be a need for further assistance, you have a
detailed help for each type of question to guide you step-by-step.
