What are Quizzes?
A quiz is an application or form that gets marked. You set the correct answer and points for each question, Melonly grades every response automatically and you choose when people see their score. Use it for training tests, entry exams or staff evaluations.
Quizzes work the same for servers and departments. If you're taking a quiz, your score shows up with your responses.
Turning On a Quiz
Open the application or form from Resources, go to its settings and tick Make this form a quiz under Quiz Settings.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Release Scores | Immediately sends the score after each submission. After Review waits for a reviewer. On applications, that means after the response is approved or denied, and finalized if you use staging |
| Default Question Point Value | Points given to each new question, from 0 to 100 |
| Auto-Accept Threshold | Applications only. Responses scoring at or above this percentage are approved automatically. Leave empty to turn off |
| Auto-Deny Threshold | Applications only. Responses scoring below this percentage are denied automatically. Must be lower than the auto-accept threshold. Leave empty to turn off |
See the rest of the settings in Applications for servers and Department Applications for departments.
People can only see their score if Send responders a copy of their response is turned on for the form.
Setting the Answer Key
- Open the answer key
In the form editor, click the Answer Key icon on a question.
- Set the points
Enter how many points the question is worth, from 0 to 100.
- Choose the correct answer
Pick or type the correct answer, then click Done.
Shift Start, Shift End, file upload and moderation questions can't be graded, so they have no answer key.
Text answers have to match exactly, including capitals and spacing. For open questions, give them points and adjust the score by hand when you review.
Reviewing Scores
Open a response to see its score per question. You can change the points for any answer and add feedback, then save your changes.
When Release Scores is set to After Review, tick Release score to respondent when you save. On applications, this appears once the response is approved or denied.
The person gets a notification with their total, like "You scored 8/10 points", and a link to view their response.
