[Year 12 SofDev] Q&A from SD text

[Adrian Janson]

Hi everyone,

 

I have set up a 'quiz' section at my web-site so that students can type in
their answers to the chapter questions and get the answers.  They MUST
create a logon to do this - as they will get the answers emailed to them.
Their email address must therefore be valid - and I won't be using their
email address for any other purpose (you can assure them of this if they
ask!)

 

Once they create a logon, they can access the quizzes by selecting 'SD
chapter questions' from under the 'Resource Library' main menu option.  They
can then select the chapter quiz they wish to do, type in their answers and
click 'submit'.  Once they do this, the answers are displayed on the screen
and they receive an email with their responses and answers.

 

 



 

 

There is a feature that will tell students how 'accurate' they have been.
This feature is a bit experimental and is based on the presence of keywords
in their answer.  Please stress to students that this doesn't mean that
their answer is 'wrong' - as there are so many different ways that an answer
can be expressed - but is just a bit of feedback that tells them (perhaps)
how far they were from an 'ideal' answer (take it with a grain of salt).

 

I have a section at the bottom of the page where (in the future) students
can put their teachers email address to send a copy to them - this is not
quite working yet.  However, if you want to check that your students are
completing questions - you can simply ask them to forward the email that
they receive to you (which is what I am doing so that I can mark off that
they have completed the questions).

 

I will be adding chapter quizzes as the year goes on - at the moment,
chapters 1 and 2 are up.

 

Please let me know what you think (it is a work in progress), but hopefully
it is usefully to you!

 

Cheers,

Adrian Janson
