1. Set your Learning Objectives to red.

2. Open your PowerPoint from last lesson.

Writing a quiz

Todays we will create a simple quiz with between 4 and 12 questions.

The code below is an example of set of how you might start your quiz

1. Copy the code above, then Run it to see what happens .
2. Screenshot or save the link into your PowerPoint

Remember when we compare if things are equal in python we use == not a single =.

Creating a question

We looked last week how Edublocks can help us with our python syntax

So lets make the same question as we just did in task 2 using Edublocks

Click on the link above to open up edublocks

See if you can make the code using the blocks below

Now look at the code by clicking on the Blocks button in the top right hand corner of the page.

The code should look like this:

If we want to keep track of how many questions the user has got right, then we need to introduce a variable to keep track of the users score. We will then assign a starting value to our variable which will be 0 as the users score will always start at 0.

Activity 2

1. Add the score code to your quiz
2. Can add another question?

Activity 3

1. Create a quiz with 5 questions, the quiz can be about anything you want.
2. Make a variable to keep score of the correct answers.

Extension ideas to make the quiz better

3. Print out the correct answer when the answer is wrong?
4. Print out the the score out of 5 when the quiz is over?
5. Have a different statement depending on the score the person got

Add a screenshot of your quiz code to your Powerpoint.

Summing it all up

Lets look at the learning outcomes and decide which one best describes our current level of understanding :
