Quiz Master
A person might think a quiz is only for academic uses. But quizzes can be put to use in many other situations, too.
Here are a few examples:
- A home burglar and fire alarm company puts a quiz
on their site to let prospects determine their own
need for the company's products. When the CGI
program processes the quiz answers, a different
scores/acknowledgement page is presented depending
on the total score:
A "You have a high risk" page for a high score; a "You're probably okay but should still take a few precautions" page for a medium score; and a "You seem to be in a low risk category" page for a low score.
- A site wants to put up a special sale for those who
enjoy the outdoors. So they put up a quiz asking
about favorite outdoor activities. Depending on
the answer, certain categories of products are
presented with discounts.
- A publishing company has many dozens of titles. So,
they use a set of quizzes to determine the site
visitor's interests. Then they present only the
titles within that interest instead of a confusing
array.
For example, the first quiz could determine the genre or category of greatest interest. A second quiz would then help to narrow the interest so an appropriate list of titles can be presented.
- A website design company asks a series of questions
to help determine a potential client's requirements.
The total score is used to select the special
acknowledgement page with the correct blurb slanted
for the discovered requirements.
- A fabric sales site can educate their visitors with a quiz about how to calculate fabric needs for different sewing projects. This can be similar to an academic quiz except the questions and their correct answers are presented on the scores page.
This article introduces Quiz Master, a versatile quiz generation and processing program.
Quiz Master has many excellent features:
- Answers can be the type where only one may be selected (radio buttons) or the type where more than one may be selected (checkboxes).
- Scores/results pages are generated from templates you design.
- Different scores/results pages can be presented depending on the value of the total score. If desired, those scores pages can contain another quiz -- as many levels as you want.
- The quiz taker can, optionally, be emailed with the scores.
- You, the webmaster, can optionally be emailed whenever a quiz is taken.
Also, there are no limits to:
- The number of quizzes that can be processed so long as the quiz forms are on your domain.
- The number of questions on any quiz.
- The number of answer choices for any question.
Quiz Master generates quizzes for you. Just fill in the sequence of forms and click the button!
Quiz Master is well-crafted.
