The life and times of MET student

If Boris is looking for a self-directed, stand-alone review tool, which would give students instant formative feedback, then he is in luck!  The quiz function in Moodle would be a great option for him.  He could create a “review’’ quiz, with a variety of types of questions (multiple choice, matching, fill-in-the-blank, short answer, etc.) that provides students with instant feedback.  This feedback can be tailored by Boris to lead students in the right direction if they are struggling, providing suggestions for specific sections or additional resources to review.  Furthermore, Boris would likely want to allow his students to take the review quiz multiple times, so he should use the “each attempt builds on the last” option when creating his quiz.  With this function, students can build their answers over time, with responses from previous tries visible for the student the next time he or she takes the quiz.
