Creating a quiz? Save some time just by using your ENTER key

When you’re editing a quiz inside your KeyStone OnDemand courses, having to use your mouse to add every question and every answer can really slow you down. When we’re building our quizzes, we find it much faster to keep our hands on the keyboard as much as possible.


 

Here’s a flow that we’ve found really works:

  1. Click inside the first Question box and type your first question.
  2. Once the question has been added, press Enter. This drops your cursor to the next Question field.
  3. Continue this way until all questions have been added.

Once your questions have been added, go back to the top of your list:

  1. Click inside the first answer field and type and answer.
  2. Press Enter to move to the next answer field.
  3. Continue this way until all answers for the 1st question have been added.

You’ll still need to pick up your mouse to move to each question’s set of answers. But to make up for it, you can mark any answer correct as you’re typing it by pressing TAB to move to the “Correct” field and pressing SPACE to enable the field.
