Quest Ladder / Sharing a question
Sharing and embedding one question
Five ways to put a question somewhere, and which one to hand to whom.
One question, several doors. Not all of them for learners.
The links
Share & Embed on a question holds everything you need to put it somewhere else.
| Link | Shows | Works for drafts |
|---|---|---|
| Teacher review link | Everything at once — stem, answer key, hints, timing, solution and learning content. | Yes |
| Student link | What learners see: timer, progressive hints, submit. | No — needs published status |
| Direct Link | The question at its own address. | — |
| Embed code (student view) | Markup to paste into a website or a learning platform. | No — publish first |
| Token | The identifier, for when something asks for it. | — |
Open student player is the exception worth knowing: it works for drafts while you are signed in, so you can walk your own unpublished question as a learner. Preview in new tab does the same in a fresh window.
The card warns you when the question is not published: the student link and the embed will not work for learners until it is. If a learner reports a dead link, this is the first thing to check.
Named delivery links
Named delivery links are separate embed links with their own grading policy. The panel's own example is the clearest one: practice without speed penalties, against strict assessment, from the same question.
- Link label names it — something like Year 10 mock — strict. A label is required.
- Create share link makes it; the card confirms.
- Revoke link withdraws it, and the confirmation warns that existing embeds stop working.
This is the tool for the same question serving two purposes. Without it you would duplicate the type, and two copies drift apart.
Sending it to a class
Everything above is a link anyone with it can use. When you want work attributed to particular learners, the route is a class: personal links, one per learner, minted from the class page.
Personal links covers that, and Deliveries covers handing a whole ladder out rather than a single question.
