Feedback on Individual Quiz Questions

Feedback on Individual Quiz Questions

Overview

Learn Amp allows you to add tailored feedback to individual Quiz Questions, helping learners understand why their answer was correct or incorrect. This boosts clarity, reinforces learning, and creates a more engaging quiz experience.

You can choose to provide:

  • Overall feedback for correct and incorrect answers, or

  • Specific feedback per answer option

This article walks you through how these options work, what learners will see, and how to make the most of the feature.


Functionality Breakdown

Two Ways to Add Feedback

Learn Amp offers two feedback modes when creating or editing a Quiz Question:

  1. Feedback based on correctness

    • Add one message for all correct answers

    • Add one message for all incorrect answers

  2. Feedback per answer

    • Add unique feedback for each answer option

    • Useful for more nuanced or instructional explanations

When Feedback Appears

Learners will see your feedback after submitting the quiz. A feedback box will appear beneath the relevant question.


Pre-requisites

Before using this feature, ensure:

  • You have permission to edit the Quiz.

Additionally, any user explicitly assigned as an Editor of a specific Quiz (via the Editors field in the Quiz form) can configure feedback - regardless of their role.

  • You are creating or editing a Quiz that includes multiple-choice or single-answer questions.
