Introduction
Welcome to IQ - Interactive Quizzes, engaging formative assessment tools based on freely
available, high-quality video content.
Most of the small images in this document are embedded with
related internet hyperlinks. Please ensure that you're using a
PDF viewer that supports these features.
For ease of navigation, especially in large IQ documents,
bookmarks are included. Look for this feature in your PDF viewer.
To aid in time management, each of the IQ episodes includes details on the video length and
number of quiz questions. Brief details are included in the description, with further details
available on the YouTube site.
Each quiz is available using two separate platforms, Kahoot and Quizizz, and every multiplechoice question includes a related screenshot from the video.
Kahoot is a game-based classroom response system, best played in a group
setting, with the questions displayed on a shared screen (such as a whiteboard
or screen projection). Responses are entered using any device that supports
a web browser. The teacher can control the pace of the questions, see realtime results, and pause after viewing responses to provide further
explanation.
With Quizizz, no projector is necessary. With the option to assign quizzes as
"homework", students can play anytime. Players see questions and answer
options on their own screen, and independently control the pace of the quiz.
This format is ideal for early-arrivers, for use in learning stations and for
assignment outside of the classroom.
On signing up for free accounts, both of these platforms provide further benefits for tracking
and analyzing player results. Links for effective use of these platforms are provided at the end
of this document.
I hope you enjoy playing these Interactive Quizzes with your students as much as I do.
Kind Regards,
Ron F.
