Benefits of allowing quiz takers to skip questions or mark them for review:

 

  • Reduces pressure and stress on quiz takers
  • Provides the opportunity to return to difficult questions later
  • Improves the accuracy of responses by allowing for review and changes
  • Increases engagement and motivation by giving quiz takers more control

 

How to Allow Quiz Takers to Skip Questions or Review Answers

 

Step 1: Go to a quiz's settings. In the General Settings tab, scroll down to the Presentation section.

 

 

Step 2: Toggle the following to "Yes":

 

  1. Allow learner to jump to any question - Let users navigate freely between questions.
     
  2. Ask user to try again if answer is incorrect - Enable this option to require learners to retry a question until they select the correct answer. Learners cannot proceed to the next question until the correct answer is chosen. This is useful for practice quizzes and ensures all questions are answered correctly.

 

Note: Ensure the presentation is "One question per page" and "Do not reveal answers during the quiz (Exam Mode)."

 

Once enabled, quiz takers can skip to any question using the ">>" arrow.

After submitting, quiz takers can take a final look at the answers. The questions marked for review will appear first. You can review other questions as well.

 

Note: A final prompt will appear if you try to submit the quiz post-review but without a revised answer.
