Abstract
Web-based parameterized quizzes provide teachers and students with several advantages as the technology for self-assessment. However, the effect of these advantages is strongly reduced, if a student does not receive enough support and cannot see her/his progress during the course. We have developed the system QuizGuide, which attempts to solve this problem by navigating students through the quiz material of the course in adaptive way. Architecture, interface and plans of future system development are described here. The paper also presents first results of system evaluation.
