Context you provide

  • {{question_type}}: The type of questions (e.g., multiple-choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank, short-answer).
  • {{subject}}: The subject or topic of the quiz (e.g., World History, Biology).
  • {{grade_level}}: The grade level of the students (e.g., 5th grade, high school).
  • {{include_explanations}}: Whether to include explanations for each answer (yes/no).

Instructions

  1. If any required inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
  2. Review the provided quiz questions carefully.
  3. Determine the correct answer for each question based on standard knowledge in the subject.
