In Educake, if you want to save a quiz for later without assigning it to a class, you can save it as a template quiz. Other teachers at your school can see and use your template quizzes, just like they can with your assigned quizzes. This article will show you how to work with template quizzes in Educake.

Creating new template quizzes

You can create template quizzes in Educake in the same way that you set regular quizzes. Start by clicking "Create New Quiz or Template" in the course you're working with. (Note: this button used to be called "Assign Tests".) Here's what this looks like:

Then choose your subject, unit(s), topic(s), and questions. When you reach the "Add Extras" page, you'll have the choice to continue and assign the quiz to classes, or to save it as a template. Save it as a template by clicking the "Save Quiz as Template" button, here:

If you'd rather assign the quiz right away instead of saving it as a template for later, just click "Set Quiz Dates" to move on to the next screen.

If you save your quiz as a template, you'll be taken to your list of saved templates.
