Help / Sharing answers during the quiz

Show scores after each question

By default, learners receive their score upon completing a quiz and can view a report showing which questions they answered correctly or incorrectly.

However, FlexiQuiz also allows you to provide instant feedback by showing whether each answer is correct or incorrect as learners progress through the quiz.

Showing the results and feedback after every question helps learners track their performance in real time. Your learners can immediately tell whether they got the answer right or wrong, and why. This can be useful for training, revision, and mock tests.

In this guide, we'll show you how to enable question-by-question scoring and customize the feedback displayed to learners after each response.

Frequently asked questions

Can learners go back and change their response after they have seen the answers?

No, once learners click Save, they cannot amend their response. If you have selected Allow previous page navigation, students can go back to view the question, their response, and any feedback, but they cannot change their answer.

If you allow multiple attempts, students can restart the quiz and respond again.

What happens if I have a time limit per page?

If you add a time limit and learners respond within the allowed time, they will be able to see whether they got the answer correct.

If the time limit expires, learners will automatically go to the next page. They will not see the correct answer or any scoring.

Can I also show a results page at the end of the quiz?
