Scenario
Your learners have finished a video, and you'd like them to check what they understood, with a pass mark, an explanation for every answer, and as many tries as they need.
Flashcards let learners flip cards and mark their own recall. AI Quiz goes further: learners pick an answer, see right away whether it's correct and why, and get a score against a passing grade you set.
Solution
AI Quiz is on the Flashcards tab of a content item's edit view, above the Question Manager. It works on videos, courses, and guides, and draws its questions from the same question bank as Flashcards.
Note: AI Quiz is being turned on site by site. If the Flashcards tab doesn't show a Quiz setting, it isn't on for your site yet. Contact your PlusPlus team if you'd like it turned on.
Who can set it up: Admins and Organizers, the item's owner, the owner of its channel, and the item's facilitators.
Step 1: Build the question bank
The quiz needs questions in the bank before you can turn it on. If the item has none yet, generate them in the Question Manager on the same tab.
For the full steps, see Question Manager: build and curate the question bank behind Flashcards.
Step 2: Turn on the quiz
Open the content item and click Edit.
Select the Flashcards tab.
The Flashcards section shows the Flashcards, Quiz, and Quiz passing grade settings.
Turn the Quiz switch On.
The switch stays disabled, with the message Generate questions first, until the bank has at least one question.In Questions, set how many questions each attempt draws at random from the bank. The default is 15 and the minimum is 2.
Under Quiz passing grade, set the score learners need to pass, with the slider or the Passing grade (%) field. The default is 75%.
Click Save.

What learners see
Learners see a Quiz card ("Test your knowledge") on the video, course, or guide page. If Flashcards are also on, the card has two tabs: Flashcards and Quiz.
Each question is multiple choice with three options. Learners select an answer and click Submit. The answer is marked correct or incorrect right away, with an explanation.
For videos with timing data, the explanation includes a timestamp that jumps to the part of the video the question came from.
Learners click Next to move on, and Finish after the last question. The card shows how much of the attempt is complete and which attempt it is.
Results and retries
At the end, learners see their score. At or above the passing grade, they see Congratulations!. Below it, they see Keep Practicing... and the score they need to pass.
Review missed questions lists each question they got wrong, with the correct answer and the explanation.
Retry Quiz starts a new attempt with a fresh random set of questions. There's no limit on attempts. A learner who leaves partway through an attempt picks up where they left off.
Things to know
The quiz is a self-assessment. Passing or failing doesn't complete the item, and quiz results aren't tracked in reporting. To require a graded check, use an assessment.
Each attempt gets a random set. If you set more questions than the bank holds, each attempt includes every question in the bank.
Changes apply to new attempts. An attempt in progress keeps the questions and passing grade it started with.
Quiz and Flashcards are independent. You can turn on either one or both. They share one question bank, so Regenerate all in the Question Manager replaces the questions for both.
An empty bank hides the quiz. With no questions in the bank, the quiz doesn't appear to learners.
No channel-level default. Unlike Flashcards, the quiz is turned on item by item.
