2. What it is and how it works
Quizslides is a web-based platform to create multiple choice tests using powerpoint slides
It was developed in conjunction with London South Bank University
How it works
Prepare the multiple choice questions in Powerpoint and upload the file.
Done.

3. Referencing quizzes https://quizslides.com/quizslides/WYKmhT
There was a demand for more referencing support
We have already prepared some referencing questions for our library sessions
It is a quick fix – free and easy to use
Four quizzes produced: Harvard, APA, Oscola, Numeric styles
Students get to see how well they did at the end
Good for self assessment

4. Drawbacks
It has to be a multiple choice test with four answers (ABCD) – no true/false.
We can’t give immediate feedback to the wrong answer

5. What we would have done differently and the next step
Have less questions?
More images and less words on each slides – use Word to create the test?
Look at the test results to see which questions are more difficult
Consider to use it to create
an IT self-assessment (on word, excel etc.)
a library test on finding materials/using journals as part of the course assignment

6. Quizslides vs Examslides
Good for formative assessment
no sign-in required
users can select options repeatedly until they get the right answer for each question, but one mark is deducted each time a wrong answer is selected - pure guesswork is not rewarded
Good for self assessment
Good for summative assessment
users must identify themselves before they begin
a time limit can be set − time taken is shown and recorded
exam scores and correct answers may be revealed or withheld
multiple attempts by the same user may be allowed or disallowed
questions can be randomized when using traditional test formats
