Quizzes

[Admin]

I'm in the process of adding quizzes to this site, and I'm going to need your help.

I know many of you are teachers, and even more of you are students. If you have old quizzes on any of the books or authors featured on this site I'd love for you to gather them up and then hopefully next week (some kinks still in the system) you'll be able to enter them (assuming you know all the answers). Multiple choice only. Just make sure the quizzes aren't from a textbook as those are likely copyrighted.

The quizzes will be both part of the forums and part of the main site. You'll be able to challenge your friends and your scores will be stored.

Nice idea, Admin. I like it. Gonna have to start ransacking my place for old quiz lit questions now!!

[Loki]

I think it's a great idea. I'll get some questions from my old English Literature book if that would be a help...

[Bongitybongbong]

That would be very cool.

As long as we can't be sacked for failing the quizzes :D (kidding :p)

[Stanislaw]

yeah, I remember the english lit test that was posted a long while back, 5 words... did poorly, um, did poorly. :D ]

I think its a cool idea, any chance of other quizes, ie. bio, chem, computer sci (got lots of those)

[Snukes]

heh heh heh. Can we invent our own quizzes...?

Suddenly occurs to me that could be interpreted two ways. I originally meant "can we make up our own quizzes about literature?" but now I'm also a little curious if we'll be able to make up quizzes about other stuff too, just for fun?

[Admin]

There will be a section for fun quizzes.

[Snukes]

Yesss! That will be SO much fun...

[Admin]

You can now submit quizzes. Browse the main site to the author or book you wish to submit a quiz on and look for the Quiz heading.

Not all authors or books are available for quizzes right now. All the authors/books added this summer are not yet setup for forum integration, they will be by the end of July hopefully. So basically its all the books/authors listed in the forum book/author directory.

I'm looking forward to it!

Will the highest scores be shown?

[Admin]

I believe so yes, but first I need some quizzes.

[Admin]

It can be hard to come up with a whole quiz by yourself, so what if I made a new area of the forums for making them?

How it'd work is you could contribute just by submitting a single question, then it'd be easy to get 10 or 20 questions for a quiz.

[Admin]

Well, not alot of response, but I think its a good idea, so I'll implement it.
