A Knowledge test is the activity type to use when you want participants to be graded on what they know. Each multi-choice question has a correct answer, the test produces a score, and you set a pass level.
Knowledge tests, micro-trainings, and evaluations
Three activity types in a learning journey can include questions, and only one of them grades the answers.
Knowledge test — multi-choice questions with a correct answer. The test produces a score and decides pass or fail. The only activity type where Knowly grades the answers.
Micro-training — slides with optional multi-choice questions used for reflection or discussion. No correct answer, no score.
Evaluation — a feedback survey participants fill in after the training to share their experience. Different purpose, also not graded.
If you want right and wrong answers and a score, use a Knowledge test.
Building a knowledge test
For each question, add answer alternatives and mark each one as right or wrong. You can also write per-answer feedback, plus the explanation participants see when they pass or fail.
When you configure the test you decide whether the result screen shows participants which answers were right or wrong, or just the score.
For pass levels and how retakes work, see Knowledge tests: retake rules and pass levels.
How participants take a knowledge test
Participants work through the questions one at a time. On every slide the button at the bottom is Next. On the last question it changes to Submit.
There is no separate "review your answers" step. Before clicking Submit, participants can use the side menu to go back to earlier questions and review or change their answers. Once they click Submit, the test is sent in and they can no longer edit it.
Right after submitting they see the result screen: their score, pass or fail, and — when you have enabled it — which answers were right or wrong, with any explanation you wrote.
Previewing a knowledge test before sending
Preview runs the test exactly as a participant would experience it. To see the result screen, submit the preview all the way through. Opening the preview is not enough — the per-answer feedback and the pass/fail message only appear after you click Submit.
