Vratislav Holub Rakuten Viber, the world's leading secure communication app, introduces innovations to help teachers, parents and students communicate better. The communication application, owned by the Japanese group Rakuten, brings the ability to organize quizzes in groups and communities, allowing teachers to quickly and easily find out what the students' knowledge is in a selected area or subject.
It is also very easy to organize a quiz:
- Choose the community or group where you want to organize the quiz and click on the poll icon in the bottom bar
- Choose the mode for quizzes, write a question, enter the answers and, if you want, an explanation of why the given answer is correct
- Choose the correct answer and click "create"

The members of the group or community can see how the individual options are represented in the answers, but they will only know the correct answer and a short explanation of the answer after they answer it themselves. Individuals' answers remain hidden in communities even to the creator of the quiz. The quiz author can see the individual answers in the groups. This new feature is useful for anyone who needs to check with others for understanding, knowledge, or just for fun.
"At the end of the last school year, the transition to online education took on a completely new form. A gradual process became something that needed to be addressed immediately. Within a few days, the education process moved from school classrooms to the home environment. Students, teachers and parents have created many communities on Viber to help them with communication and education in general. If we look at the community user numbers for the same period a year earlier, we can see that this number has doubled this year. This proves that Viber is a useful tool in this new era," said Anna Znamenskaya - Chief Growth Officer at Rakuten Viber.
Viber is committed to the maximum support and expansion of tools suitable for the field of education. He introduced several novelties for students, teachers and parents. An improved gallery or reminders in the notes are now also added to alert you of upcoming deadlines. For those who want to share something fun as well, there's an option to create your own GIFs or stickers, as well as respond to messages. Voice or video messages are also a great way to communicate something quickly and personally.
