Create a quiz that engages students, generates leads or promotes your brand.
Why should you make a quiz?
One word: growth. And there's two kinds of it. 1) Business growth-entrepreneurs growing by acquiring and retaining customers, and 2) personal or professional growth-teachers or corporate trainers helping people with new knowledge and skills.
An online quiz maker is a useful tool for facilitating both kinds of growth. How? Marketers can use quizzes as part of a social media marketing strategy to generate brand awareness or to drive engagement. Organizations also use quizzes to strengthen lessons from onboarding or training. Project management software platforms, like Wrike, create quizzes for customers after product tutorials. As a result they reduced product training time by 70%.
Teachers and trainers can create a quiz to make lessons more interactive and engaging. It's been researched and proven that regular quizzes-not to be graded or evaluated (this is key)-boost memory retention, drive engagement, and make learning fun. More on this in a bit.
Quiz creator 101: where to start?
Are you an entrepreneur looking to increase brand awareness or onboard new staff better? Or a teacher or trainer looking to drive learner engagement? Regardless of which, you need to figure out why you want to make a quiz. Then consider who your audience is and what do you want them to accomplish. How does that tie into your goals? Let's walk through some examples to kickstart your imagination.
1
A multiple choice quiz maker for memory retention
Have you heard of the testing effect? It says that the more often you test your knowledge, the more you'll learn and retain. Don't you want new staff to remember your values and critical policies? Do you want customers to remember how to use key features so they can get the most out of your product? If you're an online educator, isn't it important that your students remember what you taught them? Don't leave it to chance, make a quiz.

Use a quiz builder to give students an engaging learning experience
Ever been excited by the phrase âItâs test time!â? Didnât think so. Sure, quizzes should first and foremost track a studentâs progressâbut they can be fun, too. If youâre in a traditional education setting, an online quiz creator makes a great, interactive addition to in-class exercises. You can have fun with it and take the edge off by adding visuals and GIFs.

Build a stronger organizational culture
Maybe your company experienced a growth spurt that brought an influx of new staff in. Growing too fast could mean values don't get transmitted, cultural norms give way to individuality, and organizational culture getting lost in translation. Trello, a software platform for organizing work, has over 60% of its staff working remotely. They use quizzes to help staff understand company history, get to know one another, and reinforce shared values. For any company, big and small, you can create a personality quiz, a trivia contest or anything you like to build or enforce culture.

Create a quiz to make placement a breeze

It's a great way to introduce new students to your teaching style, making them comfortable and keeping them confident at the same time. The last thing you want is placing someone at the wrong level, either making learning too easy or too difficult. Use a placement quiz to find your learner's Goldilocks zone.
