Cool Stuff
We continue to look
for better ways to present our content and make it more interactive. Here's
an example. An interactive self-quiz mechanism for a basic Math course.
Students are able to check their understanding of the concepts using this
player.
Try this, click on
the first answer and submit.
Oops, it's wrong.
Ok, click on the second answer and submit.
Oops, wrong again.
At this point, we know the student is just guessing, so they don't get
another try. Instead they are provided the correct answer.
Click on Solution.
If they still don't
understand, they can click on Review and it will take
them back to the exact place in the lesson where this content is covered.

Pretty
cool, huh? The next generation of this player will be connected
to a database so that the student can come back to this player multiple
times and get new questions to work with.
