A live guided quiz with AI-generated hints on wrong answers and explanations after retry. Try answering incorrectly to see it in action.
Turn Every Mistake into a Learning Moment
AI hints and explanations when students answer incorrectly
Guided exam mode adds AI-generated hints and explanations to every wrong answer. Instead of just seeing 'incorrect', students get a nudge toward the right answer — understanding why, not just what. The most effective mode for learning-focused practice.
Why 'Wrong — The Answer Is B' Doesn't Teach Anything
Most quiz tools show a red X and the correct answer. Students see what they got wrong but never understand why. Without explanation, mistakes repeat. Teachers want to add hints and explanations but writing them for every question across every quiz is unsustainable — especially for AI-generated quizzes with dozens of items.
Guided Mode — AI Explains Every Wrong Answer
Quizzz Guided exam mode automatically generates contextual hints and explanations for every question. When a student answers incorrectly, they see an AI-generated hint that nudges them toward the correct answer without giving it away. After retrying, a full explanation reveals the reasoning. Teachers don't write a single hint — AI handles it based on the question content, target language, and difficulty level.
How Guided Exam Mode Works
AI-Generated Hints on Wrong Answers
When a student answers incorrectly, a contextual hint appears — a clue that points toward the correct answer without revealing it. For vocabulary questions, hints might reference word roots, character components, or usage context.
Full Explanation After Retry
After the student retries and sees the correct answer, a detailed AI-generated explanation appears. It explains why the answer is correct, including grammar notes, character breakdowns, or cultural context — turning every mistake into a mini-lesson.
One Question at a Time with Feedback Loop
Like Interactive mode, Guided mode shows one question at a time. But it adds a learning layer: wrong → hint → retry → explanation → next. Students move through the quiz at their own pace with built-in scaffolding.
Zero Teacher Prep for Hints
Teachers don't need to write hints or explanations. AI generates them automatically based on the question content, the target language, and the difficulty level. Even for AI-generated quizzes with 30+ items, every question gets a relevant, contextual hint.

Who Uses Guided Exam Mode
Learning-Focused Practice
When the goal is learning, not grading. Guided mode is ideal for homework, self-study, and review sessions where students need support — not just a score.
Mixed-Level Classes
In classes with varying proficiency, struggling students get extra support through hints without slowing down advanced students. Everyone works through the same quiz at their own level.
Kanji and Character Learning
For Japanese and Chinese vocabulary, AI hints can reference radicals, stroke components, readings, and mnemonics — providing the kind of scaffolding that makes character memorization more effective.
