The CP English Project has grown since our last meeting.
I have found many options available and all kinds of technology to help
with our ambitious endeavor. We can make virtually any kind of online
quiz including quizzes with images, sound, and maybe even video. We may
also
customize quizzes to provide different kinds of feedback and
commentary. Anything is possible!
In addition to the quizzes based on the English High Frequency
Word List, I invite all instructors and staff, CP, LA, or from other
institutions, to contribute anything they deem appropriate for the site
including scholarly articles, materials, links to other sites, recorded
lectures, audio, video, or anything else that would be helpful to students and the
community.
You can simply send me a file of any standard
format. Microsoft Word is okay. Online Quizzes
can be designed for:
- multiple choice
- matching
- cloze
- crossword
Multiple-choice quizzes may have any number of choices up to 4.
Quizzes may have any number of questions but for our Word Lists
we decided on 25. I would again like to remind everyone that
other content
besides quizzes is okay and encouraged.
You can make the webpage yourself and I will post it on the web for
you. There are several ways to make webpages ranging from
rather everyday software such as Microsoft Word to more sophisticated
applications. To make online quizzes check out the following sites:
- Online
Quiz Generator-Just follow 4 steps and you will have
generated your own online quiz.
- Hot Potato-This is what I am
using and I think it's totally awesome. Everything you need to make all
kinds of fully customizable quizzes in minutes. Very easy to use.
Whether you use the easy way or the other way, please send your content to
ndelzott@tokai.edu.
I would like to thank everyone for your contributions and comments regarding this site.
