Quizzes & assignments

This page shows you how to assess learners in Zinye Learn, so a course is more than just “watched the videos.”

A quiz is a set of questions that’s marked automatically — perfect for quick knowledge checks.

  1. Add a quiz as a lesson (or attach one to a course).
  2. Add questions — multiple choice, true/false, and so on — each with the correct answer.
  3. Set a pass mark if learners need to score a minimum.

Learners get their result instantly, and you can require a passing score before the course counts as complete.

An assignment is work a learner submits for a person to review — an essay, a file, a task done back at their desk. Use these when judgement is needed and a right/wrong answer won’t do.

  1. Add an assignment lesson with clear instructions.
  2. Learners complete it and submit their work.
  3. An instructor reviews the submission and records the outcome.
  • Quiz — facts and understanding you can mark automatically (fast, scalable).
  • Assignment — skills and judgement that need a human eye.

Many courses use both: quizzes through the lessons, an assignment at the end.
