(Knowledge Check Activities)
Sprinkle learning activities throughout your training content to give your learners an engaging, enjoyable experience in different formats that helps improve their knowledge retention.
Give them a choice with multiple-choice
In SmarterU’s multiple-choice knowledge checks, your learners may choose one or more correct answers.
Try using multiple-choice style questions for:
- Product knowledge
- Safety standards
- Company policies
- Practice exams
Drag n’ drop objects that belong together
Learners can self-test their awareness of which concepts are connected by dragging an object from one column to its appropriate slot on another.
Matching activities are great for:
- Terminology and vocabulary
- Matching products to descriptions
- The correct sequence of a procedure
Fill-in-the-blank to close knowledge gaps
Test your learners’ knowledge by having them select which word or phrase belongs in a provided statement.
You could use fill-in-the-blank style questions for:
- Standardized customer greetings
- Practical knowledge application
- Memorizing quotations or slogans
- Mathematical equations, formulas, or recipes
Let your learners map it out with labels
SmarterU’s labeling activities provide an image with several hotspots and a word bank. Your learners can drag the appropriate text to the correct hotspots.
Labeling activities can help you assess your learners’ knowledge on:
- Anatomical diagrams
- Locations on a map or interface
- Parts of an object, such as a vehicle or equipment
- Detecting something that’s out of place in an image
Memorize facts fast with flashcards
Harness the power of one of the quickest and most effective study tools for memorization. If you include multiple cards in a flashcard activity, the order in which they appear can either be sequenced or randomized.
Try using flashcard activities for:
- Terminology and definitions
- Identifying images
- Information that requires quick recall
- Strengthening recall without clues
Immerse learners with game show interactivity
Get your learners immersed in their training by having them select an avatar that earns points for correct answers.
The game show is a fun activity that you can use to:
- Engage your learners in a “Jeopardy!®-style” learning game
- Mix a variety of question styles into one activity
- Provide a broad assessment of a learner’s knowledge on a variety of topics
Give your learners a knowledge work-out
Combine content slides with interactive knowledge checks for the perfect balance of “diet and exercise.” Talk to our learning solutions experts about improving retention with activities.
Test your team’s knowledge strength
Let your learners show you what they’ve learned
Build highly-customizable quizzes or exams and have your learners prove they know the training content.
Custom quizzes or exams for your custom courses
Reinforce your lessons’ objectives by testing your learners’ knowledge at any point in your course.
Designing and presenting your quizzes and exams can vary based on the subject, expertise level, or training course. With the SmarterU LMS quiz builder, you’ll have many question options including media, such as images, video, and audio. Additionally, you are not limited to one quiz per course, and they can appear at any point in your training module.
Effective quizzes or exams for any training topic
Combine multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, true or false, long answer, and short answer questions to build your ideal quiz or exam.
- Randomizer: Questions can appear in random order so that no two learners see the same question simultaneously during an in-person quiz or exam.
- Lock Answers: You can lock the order of answers in multiple-choice questions, which is great for questions with an “all of the above” option.
- Multimedia questions: Questions can include multimedia when applicable, including images, sound clips, video content, and more.
- Add Narration: SmarterU LMS supports accessibility by providing text narration options for quizzes and exams.
Your learners have learned a lot, let them show it!
