Create a quiz

A quiz grid takes shape: title, two teams, 20 seconds per question, three categories with two questions each.

Example table

This is the table from the film. It can be copied for step 5.

| Baroque | 100 | Which painter created “Judith Slaying Holofernes” around 1620? | Artemisia Gentileschi |
| Baroque | 200 | Which academy admitted Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun in 1783? | The Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture in Paris |
| Bauhaus | 100 | Which workshop were women at the Bauhaus usually steered into? | The weaving workshop |
| Bauhaus | 200 | Who was the only female master at the Bauhaus? | Gunta Stölzl |
| Modernism | 100 | Which group asked in 1989: “Do women have to be naked to get into the Met. Museum?” | Guerrilla Girls |
| Modernism | 200 | Who painted abstract pictures from 1906, years before Kandinsky? | Hilma af Klint |

Steps

  1. On the start page choose Quiz grid.
  2. Enter a title.
  3. Enter the teams, separated by commas.
  4. Enter the time per question in seconds. 0 means no countdown.
  5. Paste the questions as a table. Each row is one question: category, points, question, answer.
  6. Choose Save. The grid is ready. Only the host sees the answers.
  7. Open the QR code from the menu. Phones scan it and join without an account.

Later, Edit questions in the menu changes the grid.

Two ways to enter the table

  • Markdown table, as in the film: columns are separated by |.
  • From a spreadsheet: in Excel, LibreOffice Calc or Numbers, select the four columns, copy and paste.

A header row is not needed. If there is one, it is skipped.

Try it yourself

Create a quiz grid with the example table and replace one row with a question of one’s own. Then scan the QR code with one’s own phone and buzz once.
