The new semester is just beginning, and over the past few months, we've enhanced Copilot with exciting new features to support your quiz creation. With the capabilities like generating detailed answer explanations for each question, rewriting questions, and smart suggestions for fine tuning the quiz. Copilot is now more powerful than ever. Let’s explore how these updates can help you create quizzes more effectively and efficiently this semester.
Please note that a Copilot for Microsoft 365 license is required to access the following features.
Generate quiz draft based on prompt/pasted content
You can specify your intentions, such as the quiz subject, audience, types of questions, and more to generate a quiz. Besides, Copilot can also generate a quiz from pasted content, such as a paragraph in textbook. For example, as a middle school teacher, you could instruct Copilot to create a physics quiz for 9th grade students or simply copy and paste content from a textbook to generate the quiz.

Quiz draft with answer explanations
After the quiz draft is generated, if you select "Including answer explanations," each question will come with detailed explanations to clarify the reasoning behind the correct answers. You can review the solutions for each question and keep the draft to use. As shown below, when we are generating a math quiz for grade 9 students, Copilot shows us the step-by-step solutions to calculate the correct answer.

Further instructions to refine the draft
You have the flexibility to add/remove questions and refine the draft further by providing additional details to Copilot. For instance, if you forgot to include trigonometric questions in a math quiz, you could keep asking to add two questions on that topic.

Rewrite questions and answer explanations
Once you keep the draft to use, if you need to do further modifications on questions, options or the answer explanation, you can easily rewrite it with Copilot’s assistance. For example, you can make the question easier or add more details to the answer explanation for better clarity. You can also manually customize the answer explanations as needed.

Generate answer explanation for newly created questions
After adjusting the generated questions, if you still need to add new ones, Copilot can help by generating answer explanations based on the correct answers you mark, saving you time on manual input.

You can add a fun theme to boost students' motivation and enthusiasm, adjust settings such as time duration and practice mode, and choose appropriate distribution channels like sharing via URL or presenting live. With just one click, you can apply these suggestions to create a more engaging and effective quiz.
