Quizzes and Surveys - how to use them?

What is the difference between a Quiz and a Survey?

Quizzes are a form of fun, gamification, or knowledge testing that will make your event even more engaging, and the possibility of collecting points and competition will encourage guests to actively participate.

​Surveys are a good way to explore opinions or collect quantitative and qualitative materials depending on the adopted methodology, which can be used to conduct statistical research.

A survey is used to collect feedback from event participants, allowing you to check which elements of your event organization were liked by the participants and which require improvement.

NOTE!

When creating a survey or quiz, remember that the recorded questions cannot be edited during the quiz/survey. Making changes to the questions will permanently delete the results collected so far.

Creating surveys

To create a survey, go to the Surveys/Quizzes module and press (+) Add your first survey or quiz and fill in all the required fields marked with an asterisk (*) in the expanded form.

Give the survey a catchy name that will encourage users to fill it out. Then, in the Published field, choose whether you want to publish your survey immediately or not. This is the only field that can be edited during the survey. You can safely reveal and hide surveys during the event, which will not affect the results collected so far:

Asking Questions in Surveys

When creating a survey, in the Question field, you can add closed questions (single or multiple choice) and open questions. The order of added questions and answers can be changed by grabbing the question in the far left corner and dragging it up or down:

On the right side of each answer, there is a red trash icon, which, when clicked, will delete it. If you want to delete the entire question, select the Delete Question button. To add another question within the same survey, select Add Question.

Only in surveys can a question with an open-ended response option be added.

Creating Quizzes

If you want to create a quiz, enable the Enable Quiz Mode. Once activated, a new checkbox Visible Results is unlocked, where you decide whether individual results of participants will be visible to them immediately after completing the quiz, or if you want to keep them to yourself. They will only see the total points accumulated, not the information on which questions they answered correctly. To show the result to the user, select Yes. In the next column in the Published section, choose whether your quiz should be visible now:

Creating Questions in Quizzes

Questions in quizzes can only be in the form of closed questions and must be single-choice questions. Remember to mark which answers are correct in quizzes.

Thanks to the Surveys/Quizzes module, you can test the knowledge of event participants, prepare a game sponsored by a partner of your event, or conduct a test to check knowledge after a full day of workshops, rewarding the best listeners.

Visibility of Surveys and Quizzes for Users

Surveys and quizzes can be published immediately or gradually revealed during the event. To publish and hide quizzes/surveys, change the values in the Published field. If you want to hide the entire module in the app, go to the sidebar, press the ellipsis, and select the Hide Component button.

You can conduct a survey or quiz in a selected group of system users. For example, if workshops are taking place during your conference and you want only workshop participants to be survey respondents, you can initially assign these people to the Workshops group. To do this, use this article.

If you want to add a specific audience group for which the Quiz will be visible, press the ellipsis on the right side of the module and select the Choose user group button. In the newly opened window, click on Select user group tag and choose the corresponding tag from the dropdown list. Remember to simultaneously remove the All Users tag, which is automatically added by the system.

Alternatively, you can leave the entire module with Surveys and Quizzes visible to everyone, and only assign its individual elements to the appropriate groups using the Select User Groups section.

Visibility of Results

Results from Quizzes and Surveys, in which the participant answered all questions and clicked Submit, are collected by the system and made available in real-time in a visual form on external pages. To display data from the quiz, in the admin panel, go to the Manage section, and then select the Surveys/Quizzes label in the side menu. All your quizzes will appear on the screen:

To get information about the results, click on one of them. To display the results on a large screen, copy the link and paste it into the browser:

For surveys with closed questions, the results show quantitative data and the percentage of responses given. Additionally, if an open response option was added to the question, it is displayed below. In the case of quizzes, the result is visible in the form of a table with names, surnames, and the accumulated pool of points.

In the Survey & Quizzes module, it is possible to export the responses of each survey and quiz. The data can be downloaded as a csv file from Manage>Survey & Quizzes>Edit Survey using the Export function, marked with a cloud icon with a downward arrow. Press the export button and download the data:
