About
Quiz questions in Kaltura Events allow moderators to add a layer of interactive learning and knowledge assessment to their sessions. By incorporating quizzes into your event, you can reinforce key concepts, check audience understanding, and keep participants actively engaged throughout the session. Whether used during a training session, educational webinar, or live workshop, quizzes help transform passive viewing into a more dynamic experience.
This article explains how to create, manage, and use quiz questions within your event.
Create and publish a quiz question
- Click Quiz question to begin creating a quiz question.
- Type your question (up to 300 char) and answers. Click + Add answer to add more answers (up to 8 total).
If you want to remove an answer, hover over the answer and click the Delete "trashcan" icon.
- You may set up your quiz in such a way that your participants can select more than one correct answer. Click on the check mark(s) next to the answer(s) you want to mark as correct. All answers can be marked as correct if needed. At least one correct answer must be marked.
The answer(s) you select as correct, display green.
- Decide whether to display the correct answer to attendees.
- Decide whether to share results with attendees.
- You may set an answer timeout (a response window for users) that controls how long the quiz stays active. If enabled, an additional configuration displays, "Set time out of". Use the up and down arrows to set the number of minutes the quiz will be available for users to answer.
The answer(s) you select as correct, display green.
- Default response window is 5 minutes
- Minimum is 1 minute and maximum is 120 minutes
During this time, participants see a countdown indicator. When the timer runs out, the quiz automatically concludes.
7. You may specify how long the quiz question notification will be visible to users. Use the up and down arrows to set the number of minutes or seconds the quiz question notification will be shown. 
- When set to seconds, minimum is 5 seconds and maximum is 60 seconds
- When set to minutes, minimum is 1 minute and maximum is 10 minutes
8. Decide whether to save as draft, schedule, or publish now.
- Save as a draft - Click Save as draft. After you've saved an interaction as a draft, you may access it through the Drafts tab of Saved interactions. Hover over the draft and choose the appropriate option. Please note, interactions cannot be modified within 2 minutes of scheduled time.
- Schedule - See Schedule interactions.
