What makes a good pub quiz with answers

Most ready-made quiz sheets are generic, so a good pub quiz with answers works best when it draws on the subjects your group cares about and includes a clear answer key.

  • Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations
  • Questions based on your own notes, slides or documents
  • Answer keys you can check before the quiz starts
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus; QTI and Moodle XML on Pro
