It’s quiz time, and tech is here to make it easier!
I believe quizzing is one of those areas where technology (and now AI) can really make a difference. It saves you time, reduces repetitive work, and opens up new ways to engage your students.
Back when I was in the classroom, creating a good quiz took time. You had to think of the right questions, make sure they covered your objectives, and then deal with marking and feedback. It worked, but it was time-consuming. Now, things have changed.
With generative AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT, you can draft quiz questions in seconds. Then you take those questions and plug them into platforms like Google Forms, Quizizz, Edpuzzle, or any of the tools in the visual I’m sharing below.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to quizzing. Each tool offers something different depending on how you teach and what your students need.
