This document discusses altering quizzes to focus on assessment for learning. It outlines four guiding principles: emphasizing feedback, allowing multiple attempts, supporting a breadth of interactions, and designing for anywhere/anytime use. Students found interactive assessment helped them learn by coaching them until they got answers right themselves and by applying readings. The document also discusses integrating OpenMark features into Moodle, with feedback, navigation, and multiple attempts added over time. It showcases interactive question projects and invites viewing websites for demonstrations.
