Over time, I\u2019ve noticed that text-heavy quizzes don\u2019t always show what learners truly understand. Sometimes they measure how well someone reads the question, not how well they know the topic. That\u2019s why I often lean on visual formats and learned how to create a hotspot quiz for lessons that are naturally image-based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A hotspot quiz is straightforward. You show an image and ask learners to click the correct spot. It works well for maps, diagrams, charts, lab models, and anatomy visuals. Instead of choosing an option, learners identify the answer directly on the image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In my experience, hotspot questions make quizzes easier to follow, keep learners involved, and help instructors spot gaps faster. In this guide, I\u2019ll explain when hotspot questions are a good fit and walk you through creating your first hotspot quiz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
