A fantastic end-of-year or back to school activity but really the ideal any-time vehicle to promote community and communication between teachers and students and which also introduces that important element of healthy competition - so often missing in distance learning. The competition can be run for individual classes or across several classes and offering a prize and running a “coming to your computer soon” campaign for a few days before fires interest and enthusiasm. How it Works The design of this fully - animated quiz is unique and is specifically tailored to quizzing at a distance. Students complete the quiz which automatically records the score and the time taken. They then take a screenshot or photograph of their final score or time and email it to their teacher. The winner is the student with the highest score and in the event of a tie, the student with the lowest time wins. The time penalties for each question mean that those pupils who have cheated and looked up the answers online are unlikely to win. On selecting a wrong answer, the student is immediately provided with the correct answer. Question Content All questions are pictorial and multiple choice. A wide-range of topical and historical general knowledge is included. As well as asking a question, most slides also provide some interesting snippets about the topic so pupils are expanding their general knowledge as well as enjoying the activity.
