Switching to Question List View

Articulate Quizmaker always opens in Question List View. At any time thereafter, you can switch to Question List View by clicking the Question List View icon in the lower right corner of the screen (near the zoom slider).

Or, go to the View tab on the Quizmaker ribbon and click Question List.

If you’re in Slide View or Form View, you can also click the Questions tab just below the Quizmaker ribbon.

Adding Slides

You can add form-based questions, freeform questions, and non-question slides by clicking the corresponding buttons on the ribbon.

You can also import questions from another quiz, a quiz template, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, or a text file. See this user guide for details.

Cutting, Copying, Pasting, and Duplicating Slides

First, select one or more slides in your quiz:

• Shift+click to select a series of consecutive slides.
• Ctrl+click to select several non-consecutive slides.
• Press Ctrl+A to select all slides in your quiz.

Then, do any of the following:

Using Question Groups

You can organize slides into one or more question groups to give your quiz a logical structure. You can even randomize slides in each question group, so learners won't see the same questions in the same order. To learn how, see Using Question Groups to Pool and Randomize Questions.

Sometimes it's helpful to collapse groups, so it’s easier to work with other parts of your quiz. To collapse a group, click the minus sign (-) beside its header. To expand a group, click the plus sign (+) beside its header.

Rearranging Slides

To rearrange your quiz, select one or more slides in the question list, then do any of the following:

• Use your mouse to drag the slides to a new location in the list.
• Click Move Question or Move Group on the Quizmaker ribbon, then choose Up or Down.
• Right-click, scroll to Move Question or Move Group, then choose Up or Down.

Editing Slides

To edit a slide, select it in the question list, then do any of the following:

• Double-click it.
• Click Edit Question on the ribbon.
• Right-click it and choose Edit Question.

The slide will open in Slide View where you can add content and edit question properties.

Deleting Slides

To delete slides, select one or more slides in the question list, then do either of the following:

• Click Delete Question or Delete Group on the ribbon.
• Right-click and choose Delete Question or Delete Group.

Editing the Result Slide

By default, every quiz includes a result slide. This result slide is displayed to learners when they complete the quiz. To edit or remove it, click the Edit Result button on the ribbon.

Setting Quiz Properties

To define the title, passing score, timer, and default settings for question slides, click Quiz Properties on the ribbon. To learn about setting quiz properties, see this user guide.

You can also set the number of attempts and points for each question directly in the question list. Just click in the Attempts column or the Points column for the question you want to edit, and enter a value.

Spell Checking

To check the spelling in your quiz, do either of the following:

• Press F7.
• Click Spelling on the ribbon.

To set your spelling preferences, see this user guide.
