AgoraQuiz

Principal function(s): Quiz/exercise makersWhole classTeacherStudentYou SupplyWebsite/other users supply

AgoraQuiz is an online educational tool for creating collaborative quizzes. Educators create groups for their students, assign a password to limit access, and add themes to practise, i.e. arts, science, or maths. Students then start proposing questions for each topic, which can later be reviewed by group admins and included as quiz questions. Finally, students compete against one another to see who gets more questions right. Educators can also access quizzes created by other educators on AgoraQuiz and use them. AgoraQuiy is free but requires creating an account for use. Evaluation: AgoraQuiz is an engaging and fun tool for classroom use. For educators, AgoraQuiz can add some variety to their pedagogical methodology by adding a gamified way of learning. At the same time, students can learn both when proposing quiz questions and when playing against each other. The fact that learners can propose quiz questions adds a level of agency and can make them more engaged with the learning process. In addition, AgoraQuiz allows teachers to monitor both the class and each of the pupils in order to identify individual or group difficulties. Interestingly, AgoraQuiz is a time-saving tool since educators can access and use quizzes created by other fellow educators. As a downside, AgoraQuiz’s interface is only available in French.
