Interactive Site Content
 Links to Poll and Quiz Creation Sites and an Example
 

Clicking the "Take Survey" link will transfer you to a three question survey I've created using the Poll-it services provided in the Lesson's links accessed December 02, 2001. They have changed their company name (perhaps due to trademark issues?) to Sparklit.com and you must put up with an annoying Banner above and below the survey questions.

Considering the interests of the current intended audience (fellow students of CISB204), the survey offers 5 responses regarding your opinion on our lessons. Be sure and continue to the survey results at the end of your entries. A link back to my lesson 6 menu page is provided on the survey pages.

If time permits, I would also appreciate your input on my message board created for Lesson 5 which asks for your thoughts on how to advance Computer and Internet Literacy. (Even if you do this after completing the class.) The message board will remain indefinitely for your comments.

Maintaining Audience Interest in your site

Quizzes, puzzles and polls are popular ways of assessing whether people have learned the content provided on your site, finding out what people think, and also of keeping their interest on your site. They key element in making this interactive is to provide immediate Feedback in the way of the correct answers, solution, or displaying the current poll results (what other people thought). If people have to print out the puzzle to do it, provide a link to the answers somewhere on your site.

There are many methods for adding interactive components like these to your web site. You may use a search engine with the key word Poll or Quiz to find many free sites that offer these services and creation tools. Below is a list of sites provided in the instructions for this lesson:

Quia at http://www.quia.com

Puzzle Maker at http://puzzlemaker.school.discovery.com

QuizCenter from the ED TECH tools site at http://motted.hawaii.edu/

Poll-it at http://www.pollit.com/
