HOW DO I CONSTRUCT A QUIZ ON EEVEC

A quiz tool called ‘EROS’ (Edinburgh Re-usable Object Sequencer) has been developed for use in EEVeC. Actually, as its name implies, it can also do the job of simply showing a sequence of objects such as images. You can request that a module be set up for you (steve.fox@ed.ac.uk). Your new module will then appear in a link on the left side of your home page called MyCAL. It is then a simple job to set up the pages in order to construct a quiz.

HERE IS THE LINK TO YOUR MODULE

THE EROS HOME PAGE

HERE YOU WILL FIND THE MODULES YOU HAVE REQUESTED FROM STEVE FOX (LTS)

THE START OF A NEW MODULE

THIS IS THE START OF A NEW MODULE

THE FIRST PAGE

2. THE FIRST PAGE WOULD USUALLY BE AN INFORMATION PAGE TELLING WHAT THE MODULE IS.

1. YOU HAVE A NUMBER OF CHOICES OF PAGE TYPE

ADDING A SECOND PAGE

HAVING ESTABLISHED THE INFORMATION PAGE, YOU CAN NOW INSERT THE FIRST QUESTION PAGE

FIRST STEP OF SET-UP

1. YOU CHOOSE QUESTION TYPE (OFTEN MCQ)

3. YOU CHOOSE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE MARKING AND WHETHER ‘LATENT’ OR NOT.

2. YOU PASTE IN QUESTION (AND ANSWERS AND FEEDBACK) FROM A WORD DOCUMENT

SECOND STEP OF SET-UP

This transmission electron micrograph of a pancreatic acinar cell shows…

..large amounts of Golgi consistent with its secretory function

The cell may well have extensive Golgi but that is not shown here.

...large amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum consistent with its secretory function

Yes. The cytoplasm is packed with rough ER.

. ...large amounts of smooth endoplasmic reticulum consistent with its secretory function.

No. The smooth ER does not have ribosomes and is not involved in secretion

...large amounts of endosomal membrane consistent with extensive endocytosis.

No The stacked membranes that you see are rough ER

PASTE IN ANSWERS AND EXPLANATIONS AND INDICATE WHETHER CORRECT OR INCORRECT

ADDING AN IMAGE IS POSSIBLE BUT NOT ESSENTIAL

ADDING AN IMAGE

1. NAME THE IMAGE AND UPLOAD A JPG FILE FROM YOUR COMPUTER

2. THE IMAGE HEIGHT SHOULD BE ABOUT 250 PIXELSMAXIMUM TO FIT WELL ON THE QUESTION PAGE.

ADD A MATHS QUESTION

THE MATHS OPTION ALLOWS USE OF VARIABLES SO THAT EACH VISIT TO A QUESTION IS DIFFERENT

THE VARIABLE APPEARS BETWEEN ASTERISKS

What is the % occupancy of a receptor with Kd = 100 nM when the free ligand concentration is *A* nM (round to one decimal point)

SET LIMITS OF VARIABLE

YOU SET LIMITS OVER WHICH THE VARIABLE CAN VARY

PROVIDE FORMULA

YOU ADD THE FORMULA WHICH USES THE VARIABLE (IN THIS CASE THE CONCENTRATION OF LIGAND) TO CALCULATE THE ANSWER (IN THIS CASE THE % OCCUPANCY OF RECEPTOR)

PREVIEW QUESTION

HERE THE VARIABLE IS 15 NANOMOLAR

ADDING A SCORE SUMMARY PAGE

THE SCORE SUMMARY PAGE REPORTS THE CUMULATIVE SCORE

SHOWING THE CAL SEQUENCE

1. HERE IS THE SEQUENCE (THE MATHS QUESTION IS NOT SHOWN). WITH MORE QUESTIONS, THIS WOULD MAKE A QUIZ

2. ONCE YOUR QUIZ IS READY, ADVISE STEVE FOX WHERE TO PUT IT IN EEVEC
