Creating a custom quiz in Labster

Labster has a quiz editor that allows you to modify questions or add new ones in Labster simulations. It can be used to tailor learning experiencing that align with your teaching and assessment objectives.

Depending on whether you are using the quiz feature for the first time in a Labster simulation or for an existing one, you need to follow a different process.
