Dynamic question types go beyond standard multiple choice and instead provide hands-on practice that prepares students for what they need to do in your course. Students engage with sample writing situations, real sources, and authentic sentences by dragging and dropping, clicking, and more.
“I love the dynamism of the questions and the immediate feedback with explanations—it's far and away better than anything I could hand out or even do in class because it's targeted to the individual.”
—Teresa Alto, Itasca Community College
Immediate and answer-specific, feedback provides advice exactly when students need it. Explanations are reinforced by definitions as well as ebook links directly to the best-selling brief handbook, The Little Seagull Handbook.
“This is my favorite feature in the entire program! Being able to connect with vetted resources when struggling is key to student growth.”
—David Coad, Solano Community College
InQuizitive adapts to provide students more questions in areas where they need it most. And a “Question Confidence” slider allows students to reflect on what they know and rank how confident they feel about their understanding and skills. This structure means less busy work for students who are familiar with the topic, and more substantive practice—without a feeling of being penalized—for students who need or want more.
“The confidence meter does a couple of different things. First, it allows a student to prove their level of knowledge by answering the questions correctly. This way they can spend less time on certain areas. But, it also creates a safe space where they can admit they DON'T know it and can gain confidence at the same time. It's a win-win.”
—Danielle Bond, Valdosta State University
Students should spend less time learning a new system, and more time learning and practicing writing. That’s why InQuizitive has a simple interface that is intuitive and easy-to-use, paired with an introductory How to Use InQuizitive activity that makes it clear how to get the most out of assigned activities. And InQuizitive integrates with most learning management systems so that it’s easy to assign activities in the environment with which you and your students are already comfortable.
“It was SUPER fun! I truly enjoyed it, and I found it to be something I looked forward to doing. It didn’t feel like classwork. It felt like a game that stimulated you to think.”
—student at California State University East Bay
InQuizitive covers the key writing, researching, and editing skills needed for first-year writing—and now features NEW activities on writing thesis statements, understanding rhetorical situations, developing paragraphs, and more.
