Creating a new quiz 

Different types of questions in Zoho Learn:

1. Single choice questions can be used when there is only one right answer to your question. You can use this question type for true or false questions.
   
2. Multiple choice questions can be used when there is more than one response to a question. For the question to be marked correct, learners must mark all the right answers. 
   
3. Fill-in-the-blanks can be used when you want your learners to complete a part of a phrase or a paragraph. Learners will have to type their answers manually, unlike the first two question types. The typed answers are then automatically graded by the system.
   
4. Descriptive questions are paragraph or essay type questions where your learners have to type in the answers in their own words. These answers have to be evaluated and graded manually.
   

Descriptive questions is available only in our Professional plan.
