It used to be that inserting some type of explanation or instructions in the middle of your Quizmaker quiz required leveraging the multiple-choice question and remembering to factor in the point value for this “non-question.” (If you’re using Quizmaker 1, here’s how to do it.)
With Quizmaker 2, now you can easily insert mid-quiz instructions without impacting your overall quiz score. The secret? The Explanation survey question.

Here’s what to do:
- Create your quiz.
- Click on Add Survey Question and select Explanation.
- Input your instructions.
- Optionally, include an image and/or reference links and files.
- Click OK to save your question.
That’s it! The benefit is that you can now provide your users with intermediary instructions or create a natural break between sections of your quiz. And you don’t have to worry about this survey question type counting toward your quiz point total.


Yeah, but what if you use randomizing and pooling? It would have to have a way to put this question at a specific spot in the quiz, like after 10 questions or %50 complete, etc…
