Before following the instructions, I assume you already know the basics of setting up the SDKs, Simulators, Dev Alpha.

Creating a Quiz:

Click the Create a Quiz button and fill in the details of your quiz.

(Take Note: that this will create an account for your quiz so please be sure to remember your credentials)

Adding a Question:

Simple interface, just fill in the question.

You can select uploaded files in the File Field, set the question media type if it is a text, image, video or audio, set the timer in seconds, the points you want.

Set the Identification field to FALSE if you want the question to be a multiple choice type question. Set it to TRUE if you want it as an Identification type question

When prompted. click start quiz and you can now test your quiz.

Downloading Quiz Data:

This will download a “quiz.zip” file and the size is depending on the overall size of your uploaded files.

It includes the questions.json file also which is your question data.

Downloading Template:

Choose the template you wish.

Pushing the quiz data to the template:

Once you had downloaded the quiz data successfully you can now push that into the template.

(take note: running the phonegap/webworks template will not run very good in the simulator, it will hang when the quiz tries to play an audio file, but I assure you if the quiz runs great on the Web Simulator it will actually run on the actual device with no worries).

Cascades Template

Extract the “cascadesTemplate.zip” to your preferred destination (in my case I will always paste it in a folder called “quizzes” in my desktop)
rename the folder related to your question. ex: sciencequiz (no spaces)
extract the “quiz.zip” files of the “questions/” folder inside the ” <yourTemplateFolder>/assets/questions/ “

PhoneGap Template

rename the folder related to your question. ex: sciencequiz (no spaces)
extract the “quiz.zip” files of the “questions/” folder inside the ” <yourTemplateFolder>/www/questions/ “

WebWorks Template
