MyStudiyo
I decided I needed a break from talking about my info lit wiki, so instead I want to talk about a new tool I just discovered. MyStudiyo is a quiz-making website that allows you to create interactive online quizzes and then embed them into your website. I love this tool! You can view your responses and statistics for each quiz you create. I can think of a thousand uses, too. For example, if you want to test students' prior knowledge, give them a quiz at the start of class, then have them retake it at the end to see if they've learned anything. You can also have fun quizzes to provide a little extra entertainment for your website. For example, a quiz on "how well do you know your librarian?" This is a great tool, still in its beta form. It's free for 3 basic versions of the quiz. If you want to know how an individual scored on a quiz, they must register with mystudiyo in order to track that information. This tool is probably not ready for use as a part of student grading, but it is a great tool for instructors to quickly gauge students' knowledge with little prep time involved. Anyone else used this tool? I'd be interested to hear how others are using it?
