Using quizzes to assess knowledge

Quizzes have different question types:

• Multiple choice
• True/False
• Put the words/phrases in sequence

All quiz questions and answers should be clear and objective. They will be graded automatically.

The goal is to assess whether participants know the material well enough to put it to work. Quizzes should assess a student's readiness to fulfill their role and successfully complete assignments.

Creating a quiz

You will need to create 50% more questions as you intend the quiz to have. This will create a pool of questions that can be randomized so that students can take a quick more than once. Questions are presented in a random order.

Once you know what the questions and answers will be, they'll all need to be entered into PropLIBRARY.

Grading quizzes

PropLIBRARY will automatically grade the quizzes and award points. Every module that is knowledge based should end with a quiz. But the quiz function can be used for progress or even fun. They can be used as a learning tool, similar to an exercise.

Length of quizzes

For multiple choice questions, we typically anticipate a minute per question. Thus a 20 question quiz adds 20-minutes to the course length.
