Summit — Climb-to-Mastery Quiz Ladder
A single-contestant quiz ladder of escalating questions with safe-rung milestones, three lifelines (Cut Two, Ask the Room, Coach Hint), an optional per-question timer, and solo or team play. Ships as a blank, commented template.
- Problem
- Recertification and level checks need stakes; a flat quiz doesn't show who can hold up under pressure.
- Who it helps
- Facilitators running recertification, level checks, or high-stakes review one learner (or one team) at a time.
- In training
- A learner climbs a ladder of harder questions; clearing a safe rung banks the score, lifelines ease tough spots, and the timer adds pressure — great for recert or a capstone round.
- Skills shown
- Front-end build, game-state and scoring logic, retrieval-practice under pressure, trainer-editable template.
