This week is a vacation week for the vast majority of readers of this blog. As I do at this time every year, I’m going to republish some of the most popular posts of 2018. Here’s one from March.

Over the years I have tried and written reviews of dozens of tools that teachers can use to create multimedia quizzes. But at the end of the day there is just a handful of tools that I consistently think of when it is time to make a quiz myself. Those tools are included in the following chart. Links to video tutorials for each tool are included in the chart.

Click here if you cannot see the embedded chart.

A few points about the items in the chart:

• Formative supports embedding media from third parties. That means that you could include an embedded audio file from a source like Vocaroo or Anchor.fm. 
• Vizia responses land in a spreadsheet or CSV file of your choosing. 
• If you’re wondering why I didn’t include Kahoot or programs like it, I put Kahoot in the category of “game” and not something I would use for an assessment that would go into my gradebook.
