The Professional Professors

As I have mentioned in previous posts, I was very adamant that I wanted a quiz engine to embed into my VLE. To achieve this I went through about 3 different quiz generator sites until I settled on the site known as ProProfs.

ProProfs offers seemingly unlimited quizzes to be made by free users in a quick and simple manner.

Firstly, the user either needs to sign up to a free account or alternatively use an existing social media account.

From there the proverbial world is your oyster. Clicking the create a quiz button brings the user to this page:

As you can see ProProfs provides a number of different styles of quizzes which may be useful for blogs or general interest websites. The most suitable for the VLE I was creating however was th simple scored quiz. 

When creating this type of quiz the user is again given a number of options:

These provide the different types of questions that can be inserted into the quiz, and appear as such:

As you can see this allows you to ask any question you like and fill in as many possible answers as you wish selecting the correct one. There is also a feature allowing the user to drag the answers into any order they want to.

Once the quiz is completed and named the user can delegate points to each question and then save the quiz. At this point the quiz may be embedded by selecting the share option and copying the code.

This should then be placed in the html of your Site.
