Creating a Survey Gizmo Quiz

This will explain how to build a new quiz in Survey Gizmo. It will cover the construction and setting up the response emails to notify selected people when a quiz is completed.

First you need to select the create survey button and choose the create quiz option.

Enter the name of the quiz you are creating and make sure start fresh and pass/fail are selected. Then click the green start building button.

For right now ignore the Quiz Score page as we will get to it later. Instead lets start by adding a question to the first page. We do this by clicking the Question option in the Add New: menu on page 1.

This will open a menu where you can select the question details. Enter your question into the box under "What question do you want to ask? and select the type of question from the drop down menu.

If you need help selecting the best question type refer to the view question type cheatsheet link next to the type selector.

After you have the type of question selected you can toggle if it is required or not via the check box and enter the answer options in the boxes bellow. To add more options simply enter the new option in the box bellow the options.

The answer options changes for each question type and the image might not be an accurate representation of the options you will have. Fill in the answers as it prompts you.

The reporting value is what will show up in the reports if that answers is selected. An example is if the option Answer 1 had a reporting value of A, when a person taking the quiz selected Answer 1 then the reports would have a value of A for that question. You can edit these values by clicking on them and entering your own.

After you finish entering the information for the question, save the question and you can move on to the next one. You can do this faster by selecting the Add Another Question button at the bottom to save and create a new question.

You have now finished entering your questions but you still need to enter some instructions, do this by simply selecting the Text/Media option of the Add New: menu at the bottom of the page 1 section.

From here you can select what type of media you are adding and enter the text for the instruction. For any other form of media the text entered will appear above the media by default.

After you select those click the save text/media and edit button to open the window where you would add the media if you wanted or review the text. After that select save.

For the Images click the robot to open the import window to add your custom image.

For audio and video you enter the url to the media to add it.

After you have the media in you might want to move it or other questions around on the page. To do this simply click and drag the four directional button on the side of the question or media and move it to the location you want. You can move questions across pages as well.

When you are done with your quiz and it is ordered correctly you now need to set up the grading so it will actually grade the quiz. Go to the final page and click the pencil on the quiz score action box.

In this window you will be able to modify the grading details. Set the pass score to 0 to prevent the quiz taker from knowing how they did, or select the grade you want to be passing if you want the quiz taker to know.

The next thing is to go through the quiz in the window and select the answers that are correct.

The last thing to do in this window is to change the pass fail message. If you are trying to hide the results change both to be the exact same.

[quiz("score")] will show the quiz taker's score as a percentage out of 100

[quiz("questionscorrect")] will show the number of questions answered correctly by the quiz taker

[quiz("totalquestions")] will show the total number of questions.

Now that the quiz is built and the grading set up all that is left in building the quiz is to set up the email responses to send the results out. To do this we need to go to the last page with the quiz grading and select Action in the Add New menu.

After you select that a window will open up, there you will select send email and name it appropriate. Save the action when you finish to open up the next window.

After you save the action a new window will open and you can now enter the address to send the email too. You can also modify the subject, recipient name and the sender's information.

After all the details have been set up you can now move on to editing the body of the email. To get details from the questions you can use the merge code button under the message body and select what questions to add into the message body. You can also type and modify the message as you see fit.
