❔ What’s it for?

So what’s the point of RapidQandA then? There are loads of great online quiz generators out there: Kahoot and Quizizz for example. Surely, we don’t need another one?

RapidQandA is different. It has three distinct features:

• Speed: quickly writing down your lesson in plain text is faster than clicking in a fancy UI. It might not seem it at first, but once you’ve got to grips with it, you’ll be flying.
• Autorun lessons: these are simple files that can be shared anyway you like. Students can just open the file and run the lesson.
• Privacy: there are no accounts and no log ins — nothing. We’ve all got enough online accounts and we probably don’t want any more.

What can I use it for?

These are probably the three main uses of RapidQandA:

• to play lessons that have been created by someone else or from the built-in library. The built-in library is under construction at the moment, so you’ll have to wait a bit. Sorry!😥
• to create lessons for someone else to use.
• to create lessons for yourself or others.

Why would I want to play someone else’s lesson?

Perhaps it was sent to you as an assignment by your teacher. Perhaps, something in RapidQandA’s library (when it arrives 😉) interests you.

Why would I want to use it to create a lesson for someone else?

Perhaps you want to create a quiz about some topic for your students. You haven’t got much time, so you need a quick method. No need to worry about data protection or creating accounts. Your students will just be able to run the lesson file you send.

Okay! Why would I want to create a lesson for myself?

One reason might be to help you revise for a test. You can create a personal lesson to help drill a topic into your memory. You can also include questions to test your understanding as an alternative to using flash cards.
