Moodle Plug-in presentation ~real-time quiz Deb Sowers LTMS 608 Spring, 2011
Purpose Realtime quiz is a multiple-choice quiz designed for use in a face-to-face lesson. Each student receives each question at the same time with a time limit to answer it (default 30 seconds). In between each question the correct answer is displayed, along with the number of students giving each answer (and some statistics about the percentage class / individual correct answers). This allows each question to be discussed before moving on.
Ease of use • Requires Moodle 1.7 or later • 2.1 version to be released July, 2011 • Most “bugs” were minor and easily resolved • 2010 improvements have included: • Ability to add a picture to each question • More attractive question display • Easier question editing • Reduced network traffic & improved stability (particularly on wireless networks)
Pros • Great way to check in with how learners are learning content • Like other “clicker” programs (i.e. TurningPoint), is very engaging • Do not need to have all of the external devices that are necessary for other similar programs
Cons • (with classroom use) can only be completed in lab setting; all students need a computer w/Moodle access • Can only be used in a face-to-face lesson
Questions? • Again this presentation was about the “real-time quiz” plug-in
