• Web-based MCQ repository built by students
• Students: – develop new questions with
associated explanations – answer existing questions and
rate them for quality and difficulty – take part in discussions – can follow other authors

Quality of submissions:
• Average quality was very good
• Few trivial questions / nonsense distracters
• ‘Community moderation’ discouraged sub-par questions

Take-homes: • Provide orientation task • Set the quality bar very high • Force yourself to be hands-off • Set an assessment task • Leave the deadline as late as you can • Assessment is quality-based but light-load (no
direct marking required) • Unleash the creativity of your students!
