What Is a Quiz With Audio & How Does it Enhance Learning?

A quiz with audio is an interactive assessment format that uses sound clips as part of the question prompt or answer input. Instead of relying solely on text, it allows learners to listen to audio and respond, making it ideal for language learning, pronunciation checks, listening comprehension, and accessibility-focused training. By simulating real-world listening scenarios, a quiz with audio promotes more profound understanding and better retention, especially in training environments that rely on verbal communication.

3 Types of Audio Quizzes You Can Create

Watch/Listen & Answer

Learners listen to an audio clip (or watch a video) and then answer questions based on what they heard. Ideal for testing listening comprehension, auditory processing, and attention to detail.

Submit Audio as an Answer

Instead of typing, learners respond by recording or uploading their voice. This is useful for evaluating verbal skills, pronunciation, or language proficiency.

Essay With Speech-to-Text

Learners answer essay questions by speaking. Their words are transcribed automatically, making it easier to give detailed responses while improving accessibility and reducing fatigue.

How to Create Quizzes With Audio

  • Step 1: Add your audio file

    Select Upload Audio, and insert an MP3 file. Learners will listen to the clip and respond with written or multiple-choice answers.

  • Step 2: Let learners respond with audio

    To capture learner voice input, choose the Record/Upload Audio. Participants can record their answer on the spot or upload a pre-recorded audio file.

  • Step 3: Customize, preview & publish

    Configure time limits, retake permissions, grading, or feedback. Preview the audio experience across devices and publish your quiz.
