Adding a Header Image to a Quiz Question

Learn how to enhance your quizzes by adding header images to individual quiz questions.

Header images add a visual element to your quizzes—making them more engaging and helping learners differentiate between questions. This can be especially useful in longer quizzes or when visual context is helpful.

When creating or editing a quiz question, you have the option to upload a header image specific to that question.

Benefits include:

• Visually distinguishing one question from another.

• Adding clarity or context to a question.

• Creating a more engaging learning experience.

Before you begin, make sure:

• You have permission to create or edit quizzes.

• Your image file is in a supported format (.jpg or .png).

• The image size is appropriate—ideally landscape orientation and at least 800px wide.

To add header images to quiz questions, you need permission to edit quizzes. This is available to users with one of the following roles:

• Curator

• Learning Designer

• Admin

• Owner

Coaches can also add header images to quizzes they create, as they are automatically granted editor access. Additionally, any user who is explicitly assigned as an Editor of a specific quiz can add header images to questions in that quiz, regardless of their role.

Open the quiz and choose to either add a new question or edit an existing one.

Tick the checkbox labelled 'Add a header image'.

Click the Upload Image button and select your image file.

Tip: Use images that are relevant, simple, and don't distract from the question content.

Can each quiz question have its own image?
Yes, each question can have a unique header image.

Are there limits on image size or type?
Yes, supported formats include .jpg and .png. For best results, use a landscape image at least 800px wide.

My image won't upload—what should I check?

• File format and size.

• Internet connection or temporary system issues.
