A Quiz block (also called a knowledge check) tests what learners have absorbed before they move on. You decide the questions, the passing score, and how many attempts learners get. Quizzes count toward course completion unless you mark the block optional.

​
Add a Quiz to a Page

1

Insert the block

In the course editor, open the slash menu on any page and choose Quiz. See Add Content Blocks for how blocks work in general.
2

Choose how to build the questions

The block offers two tabs: Build from scratch to write questions yourself, or Generate with AI to draft them for you.
3

Configure the settings

Set the passing score, the maximum attempts, and whether the quiz renders inline on the page.

​
Generate Questions with AI

On the Generate with AI tab, choose what the quiz should cover:
  • This page generates questions from the content of the current page.
  • This whole section generates questions from every page in the section, useful for an end-of-section check.
If the first draft misses the mark, regenerate for a new set. Generated questions are fully editable, so treat them as a head start and tighten the wording before you publish.
Put a page-scoped quiz right after the content it tests, and a section-scoped quiz on the last page of the section.

​
Quiz Settings

Open the quiz’s block settings to change any of these.

Questions can carry an explanation, shown to the learner during review, either for the question as a whole or for the specific option they picked. An explanation turns a wrong answer into a teaching moment instead of just a red mark.

​
What Learners See

In the course player, the quiz shows the percentage needed to pass and how many attempts remain. After submitting, learners see Passed or Did not pass along with their remaining attempts, and can choose:
  • Review Mistakes to see which answers were wrong
  • Try Again to use another attempt
  • Continue to move on after passing
If a learner runs out of attempts without passing, they fail the course with a Did Not Pass status. See Taking a Course for the full learner experience, including what happens after a failure.
Mark the block Optional if the quiz is for self-assessment only and should not block completion.
