This week ArchiTek presented the process and got a great number of feedback from faculties. Before quarters, we designed an interactive online quiz system, aiming to replace the quiz currently on CMU blackboard.
Faculties gave us various suggestions, which could be summed up as follows:
ralph 3d printer–brain
3d–brain: where do we come from this idea? Which things do we come from? Duolingo (should show demo photo)
Reorder question , ask question in different ways positive, negative,
More examples, is the question template general enough to be applied to many questions.
What is our frame, how to make the system
Don’t want to know details but since it’s himself: how the whole system get delivered to her

Branda: what research have done? No remediation system. !!!Quia!!!
Dave:
A little difficult – assessment are u trying to go specific questions, or more generalize …. Try different template in different area questions. Like student creating questions for each other.

Steve:

Woman:
Original one is boring. R we creating a tool? Like social media
Everyone has to write a blog . Other has to post a comment . Is it good?
After watching a video, post something so that you will get score, if not, lost score.
Richardo:
Puzzle game decision point-→ different result happen …social media may be great. Avatar system simple
However, the faculties mostly focused on these problems:
How can we help teacher better assess students’ behavior?
How can the new quiz be self-motivated effectively?
How can the quiz be more interactive?
As a result, we changed our direction a little after communicating with Mike and Kristen. Redirecting to a narrower topic about map design, we manage to improve one certain chapter instead of the whole exercise book. In terms of the chapter of map design, we throw away the assessment and self-motivation parts. Nevertheless, we are making a much more interactive tool to enhance students’ map design skill. The core problem is still that students feel bored and some of them are not scoring well. However, we are not going to replace the quiz but find other ways to reinforce what should be learning. That is to say, we are creating a tool with technology.
After finding the new path, we made new demo for map design chapter, which showed what we could do about the mechanism and how initiative we are. The next step will be discovering what we are about to do. We are talking with Kristen and her TA about grading keys and students’ GIS projects assignments.
