Example quiz questions for teachers writing assessments

What is the difference between formative and summative assessment?Formative checks happen during learning to guide teaching, while summative grades learning at the end of a unit. Formative results should change what you teach next, not just rank students.

Why should multiple-choice distractors reflect common student misconceptions?A plausible wrong answer reveals which misunderstanding a student holds, so a wrong choice still tells you something useful.

True or false: true/false items should avoid absolute words such as always and never.True. Absolute words are often clues that make a statement false, so students can guess without knowing the content.

Which level of Bloom's revised taxonomy does Compare two causes of the French Revolution target?Analyze, because students must break the topic into parts and show how the parts relate to each other.

Why add an explanation to every answer in a practice quiz?Explanations turn a wrong answer into a lesson by showing students why each incorrect option fails.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a classroom quiz include?

Most short checks work well with 5 to 10 questions, which leaves time to go over answers in class. Longer unit tests can go higher, but keep each question tied to one learning objective.

What makes a good distractor in a multiple-choice question?

A good distractor is a plausible answer that matches a common misconception, not an obviously silly option. Replace any wrong choice a student could rule out without reading the question.

Can I export quizzes to Moodle or QTI?

Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 export are on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF and DOCX export are included with Plus at $39 per year or $7.99 per month.

Is there a free plan to try it first?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports. No credit card is needed to start, and students get 40% off with a school email.
