Quizzes allow WalkMe Learning Arc builders to create assessments that test knowledge, reinforce learning, and deliver feedback directly within the learning flow. Because quizzes are designed to complement courses, they can only be added as part of a course and cannot be published as standalone microlearning.
Within the quiz builder, builders will find a variety of question types:
- Single and Multiple Choice: Add a question with answer options.
- True and False: Provide a statement that learners confirm as true or false.
- Open Question: Ask learners to type a free-form answer. Builders can use AI to expand accepted answer variants.
Note
Open Questions are only available for AI customers. - Sorting and Ordering: Give items to be arranged in the correct sequence.
- Matching: Create pairs of text that learners match together.
The flexibility of question types ensures builders can create assessments that fit different learning goals and measure understanding in multiple ways.
Quizzes provide a simple way to check comprehension and keep learners actively engaged throughout their training. WalkMe Learning Arc builders can build quizzes from scratch or use AI assistance to generate questions based on lessons or uploaded materials.
