Description

quiz:bit is a simple classroom voting application for use with the BBC micro:bit.

In classroom situations it can be difficult for children to ask for help with concepts they're struggling with for fear of ridicule from their classmates.

quiz:bit provides a simple, easy to use, anonymous voting system designed for the classroom that can be used to gauge comprehension of a topic, their opinions on "how cool minions are", or even how interested they are in the current lesson!

Use quiz:bit to carefully craft questions for your class to answer. Your class can then vote using their own micro:bits connected wirelessly to a micro:bit relaying messages to your computer. quiz:bit analyses these votes where they are anonymously counted and displayed on the screen in real time.

To use quiz:bit:

1) Download the QuizMaster.hex and Quizzer.hex from: https://lancaster-university.github.io/microbit-docs/resources/quiz-bit.zip

2) Flash any number of micro:bits with the Quizzer.hex file - these will be for your voters.

3) Flash one micro:bit with your Quizmaster.hex file . This micro:bit will relay messages to quiz:bit from other micro:bits.

4) Launch quiz:bit and wait for it to detect your connected Quizmaster micro:bit.

5) Edit your questions & answers.

6) Click 'Start Vote'.

Quizzer micro:bits will display letter options once a vote is underway. Use the A and B buttons to cycle through the letter options and press them both simultaneously to lock in your answer.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
