QUIZZES


Discovery School Quiz center

Quiz Center is a powerful tool you can use to create, administer, and grade quizzes online. Without any Web development background whatsoever, you'll be able to make online quizzes that provide instant feedback to you and your students.



QUIA  Unfortunately the QUIA company no longer offers their product for free. They charge 49.95 for a year's subscription. They do offer a 30 day free trial though if you care to use their program for this assignment.

     There are eight types of games and two types of quizzes that you can create here. When you click on the
     type of activity you want to make, an editor will appear to guide you step-by-step through the
     process.
Visit the puzzle and games page I created for my psychology classes. I am still adding to it.
