You paste a link, trim the video and pin questions on its timeline. When you present, the video stops at each question, everyone answers on their phones, and then the video carries on. It suits training videos, lessons and quiz nights. YouTube Quiz is available now. It is coming to the EU region later. ## YouTube Quiz at a glance | | | | - | - | | Type | Scored quiz slide, feeds the leaderboard | | Find it | **New slide**, then **YouTube Quiz** in the **Quiz** group (marked **Beta**) | | Questions | Each one pinned to a moment in the video | | Answers | 2 to 6 choices per question, one correct | ## Create a YouTube Quiz slide ![AhaSlides slide type picker with a search for YouTube Quiz and the YouTube Quiz slide type highlighted in the Quiz group](https://mintcdn.com/ahaslides/-5RjmYUZQIHEjeRW/images/youtube-quiz-add-slide.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=-5RjmYUZQIHEjeRW\&q=85\&s=5807ef10071478340389c662c6bde640) **1. Add the slide** In the editor, click **New slide**, then search for **YouTube Quiz** or find it in the **Quiz** group. A [leaderboard](https://docs.ahaslides.com/features-and-functions/adding-and-deleting-a-leaderboard-on-your-quiz.md) slide is added after it, so players see the final scores. **2. Paste a YouTube link** Paste the video's address into **Paste a YouTube link** on the slide, or into **YouTube video** in the right panel. The panel then shows the video's title and length. You can also give the quiz a **Title**, which is shown on the slide. **3. Trim the video** Switch the canvas to **Trim & cut**. Drag either end of the timeline to trim the start or the end. Select **New cut** to skip a part in the middle, then drag the cut or its edges. The bin removes a cut. **4. Pin your questions** Switch back to **Question**. Pause the video where you want a question, then select **Add question**. A numbered pin appears on the timeline. You can also click the timeline at a moment, or use **+ Add question** in the right panel. **5. Write each question** Click a pin to open its question. Type the **Question text** and the **Answer choices**, then mark the right answer with **Mark as correct**. Use **+ Add answer** for more choices and **Add image** to put a picture on an answer. **Checkpoint** sets the moment the video pauses; the − and + buttons move it by a second. ![AhaSlides YouTube Quiz editor with two numbered question pins on the video timeline and the Questions list in the right panel](https://mintcdn.com/ahaslides/-5RjmYUZQIHEjeRW/images/youtube-quiz-settings.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=-5RjmYUZQIHEjeRW\&q=85\&s=62106f8c7db840aeb79805104185eb9f) ## Present a YouTube Quiz slide Click **Preview** to try it as a player first, then **Present**. Participants join with the access code on screen, and you click **Start** to play the video. While the video plays, players' phones ask them to watch the main screen, and a chip on your screen counts down to the next question. At each checkpoint the video pauses and a short "Look at your device!" countdown runs. Then the question opens on both screens, with a timer and a live chart of the answers. Players pick an answer and tap **Submit**. When the timer ends or everyone has answered, the correct answer is revealed and each phone shows the points earned. You can also click **Reveal answer** to close the question early. The video then carries on to the next question, and the scores add up on the leaderboard after the video ends. YouTube may play ads in some videos. Play the video through once before you present, so an ad doesn't interrupt your quiz. ## YouTube Quiz settings | Setting | What it does | Default | | - | - | - | | Points | The most a correct answer can earn. | 100 | | Speed bonus | Faster correct answers earn more points, down to **Minimum points** for the slowest. | On, 50 minimum | | Time limit | How long players have to answer each question, from 5 to 1200 seconds. | 25 seconds | | Auto-continue | Moves on by itself once an answer is revealed. It still waits for the time limit, or for everyone to answer. | On | | Show upcoming question pins | Shows the pins of questions not yet asked on the video's progress bar. You can hide or show them while presenting. | On | | Subtitles | Shows the video's own subtitles, if it has any. | Off | The scoring settings apply to every question in the quiz. The leaderboard works as on every quiz slide: see [quiz settings](https://docs.ahaslides.com/using-slide-types/quiz-settings-on-ahaslides.md). ## Ideas for using YouTube Quiz * **Training video**: pin a question after each key step to check people followed it. * **Lesson recap**: play a short explainer and ask about each idea as it comes up. * **Predict what happens next**: pause just before a result and let players guess. * **Quiz night round**: use a nature or science clip and ask what players spotted. * **Onboarding**: turn a welcome video into a quick game for new starters. ## Frequently asked questions ### Do players watch the video on their phones? No. The video plays on the main screen only. Phones show the questions when they open. ### Can I change a question's moment after I add it? Yes. Open the question and change its **Checkpoint** in the right panel. If a cut covers a question, AhaSlides offers to move it out of the cut. ### Should I use YouTube Quiz or the YouTube slide? YouTube Quiz adds scored questions to the video. To just play a video in your presentation, use the [YouTube slide](https://docs.ahaslides.com/using-slide-types/how-to-use-youtube-slides-on-ahaslides.md). **Have a question?** Contact our support team: if you're logged in, use the chat bubble in the bottom-right of your dashboard; otherwise [contact us here](https://ahaslides.com/contact-us/) or email [hi@ahaslides.com](mailto:hi@ahaslides.com).
