6. Formatting Questions and Answers Correctly
Here are some tips for formatting your questions and answers:
6.1 Keep questions and answers short and to the point. Long entries might be shortened when converted to a quiz format.
6.2 Separate questions from hints or explanations. When adding a hint, type the question first, followed by the hint.
Example:
Who was the queen of Egypt, famous for her beauty?
Famous for her beauty, who was the queen of Egypt?
6.3 Avoid placing answer choices close to the edges of images in single-image format polls.
6.4 Make sure the voting tags are properly aligned.
6.5 Use hashtags (#tags) to mark questions in multi-part quizzes. These hashtags can indicate difficulty level, category, topic, theme etc.
Example:
#easy #history
6.6 Do not include the quiz title within the question itself. You can use hashtags (#tags)
Example:
[All about computers] What is RAM?
#AllAboutComputers What is RAM?
6.7 Use high-resolution images to ensure clarity.
6.8 Ensure each part of a multi-part quiz has a central theme.
Example:
Part 1: Easy
Part 2: Medium
Part 3: Hard
Part 1: Software
Part 2: Hardware
Part 3: Security
Question formatting for multipart quizzes (quiz groups):
Part 1: #fruits #easy Which one is an apple?
Part 2: #fruits #medium What color is golden delicious?
Part 3: #fruits #hard How many species of apples exist?
