36+ Quiz Templates and Examples

Quizzes challenge your students, customers, and employees with a series of questions to test their knowledge, understanding, or skill in a particular subject or area. They can be in the form of multiple choice, true or false, pick the correct image or short answer questions. All of which can be administered in various settings, including in schools, at work, or online.

In recent years people have come to favour online quizzes. Often made with a quiz maker like Paperform, they make quiz building easier with features like real-time automatic quiz scoring, integrations with popular apps, and greater customisation.

Online quiz templates aren’t just for teachers looking to hold a pop quiz. They can be used by businesses looking to improve engagement with their customers, entrepreneurs trying to build their email list, or ecommerce workers looking to deliver a more customised shopping experience.

Whether you need something for educational, entertainment, or competitive purposes, you can customise a quiz to your unique subject and industry.

There are three main factors to consider when deciding on your quiz format: the purpose of your quiz, your target audience, and the information you are trying to gather. Some standard quiz formats include:

1. Multiple choice: This format allows participants to choose answers from a predefined list of options. It's a popular format for testing knowledge or understanding of a subject.
2. True or false: This format requires participants to indicate whether a statement is true or false. It's an excellent format for testing respondents' understanding of facts or definitions.
3. Picture questions: Picture questions can be great, from fun 'name the celebrity' quizzes, to an art pop quiz. You can use one of our picture quiz templates to help you get started. 4.Short answer: This format requires participants to provide a brief, written response to a question. It's a suitable format for definitions, or testing the understanding or application of a concept. 5.Matching: This format requires participants to match a set of options with other options. It's a suitable format for testing knowledge of relationships or connections between different concepts. 6.Fill in the blank: This format requires participants to provide a word or phrase to complete a sentence. It's an excellent format for testing knowledge of vocabulary or specific details.
4. Ranking: This format requires participants to rank a set of options in order according to specific criteria. Ranking formats are used for ascertaining the popularity of certain items or concepts.
