Creating a Whiteboard Quiz for Immediate Use

• Select WHITEBOARD on your Dashboard.

• Name your Whiteboard Quiz.  This title will appear at the top of the page when the Whiteboard is displayed.
• Select a Question Bank (from those in your Dashboard) and then select a topic or topics from which to pick questions:

• Each line can be used to select a "bucket" of questions from one or more topics. To make it easier to compile, you can have multiple "buckets" of questions together in one Whiteboard Quiz.
  
   

  

• If the QUESTIONS IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER  toggle is activated, questions will be shown in the order in which they appear in the Question Bank, even if selected at random.

• If the QUESTIONS IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER toggle is not activated and you manually choose the questions they will be displayed in the order that they are selected from the Question Bank.
• If the QUESTIONS IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER toggle is not activated and you  use the SELECT RANDOM button the questions will be selected and displayed in a random order.

         

• You can select as many questions as you like, and you should be able to see up to 8 questions and answers on the screen at any one time (though you may need to adjust the zoom on your device depending on its resolution and size):

• The cog icon at the top of the IMAGE column can be used to filter for questions with or without an image as required.  Selecting questions without images may allow multiple questions to be more easily displayed on the Whiteboard.  

• Click SHOW NOW to display the Whiteboard Quiz.

• Click CHANGE SETTINGS to go back to the previous page.

• If the Question Bank you are using has multiple choice options and you wish to enable the multiple choice answers, use the toggle at the top of the Whiteboard Quiz to reveal them.

• Once you are finished with your Whiteboard Quiz, simply click one one of the buttons in the header bar to exit. Please note that you cannot return to a Whiteboard Quiz once you have clicked one of these options and left it:
