For this semester, I tried using the quiz on the elearning.\u00a0 So, I learned a bit about it by myself (googled the handouts and figured out how to do it through trial and error).\u00a0 I tried it on different courses.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I find that the quiz on elearning is easier to use like Quizziz or Kahoot!.\u00a0 But unlike Quizziz, the quiz on elearning can be set for longer duration.\u00a0 For Quizziz, I only can set the duration up to 2 weeks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, for UG SPPP 1012, I set my 2nd quiz using the elearning.\u00a0 I let the students to take the quiz as many times as they wish (multiple attempts).\u00a0 Meaning, they can take the quiz several times as they want until they get the highest marks (5 marks).\u00a0 I notice that many students use this opportunity to improve their grades.\u00a0 Well, this is an example of formative assessment in which students can regulate their own learning.\u00a0 Of course, I did not let them see the answer but they can get a feedback if they answer it inaccurately.\u00a0 So, in this case, they know if they have answered a question right or wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, I find that some students didn’t even bother to try out the quiz more than once to improve their grades.\u00a0 I trust their judgment in this.\u00a0 There was one student who did not take the second quiz.\u00a0 I have reminded them in class and through Whatsapp group.\u00a0 But, apparently something is amiss in which he did not take the quiz.\u00a0 I did remind them to let me know if they have anything to discuss but only some of them did so.\u00a0 They would either leave a message on my elearning or through Whatsapp.\u00a0 I could not help from thinking why this student acted this way.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Is he struggling?\u00a0 When I looked at his final examination, he did ok (22\/40 – average marks).\u00a0 I haven’t finalised their marks yet because I am still marking one assignment – concept map.\u00a0 But, using simulation, he will get passing grade (60+\/- over 100).\u00a0 That could be B-.\u00a0 Well, if that what he wants, what else can I do?\u00a0 After all, I have given them chances to improve their performance.\u00a0 Nothing else matters.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
