Learn how to conduct quizzes for quick, real-time knowledge checks of participants in Adobe Connect.
The Quiz pod in Adobe Connect is used to create and conduct quizzes. It supports multiple choice, multiple answers, true/false, fill-in-the-blank, and short answer questions. Quizzes can be timed, and the order of questions and answer options can be randomized. Hosts and presenters can set up the quiz either before or during the session. Questions can also be imported in CSV and GIFT formats for easy setup.
Quiz responses are evaluated in real-time. Hosts can monitor scores and completion rates while the quiz is open. A leaderboard is available inside the room after the quiz ends, and detailed quiz reports are accessible in the post-session dashboard.
