1912 Eight Grade Quiz Makeover #295: Challenge | Recap

A Historic Exam Gets a Modern Makeover

A few years ago, BuzzFeed posted another one of their viral quizzes. The only difference this time was that this quiz wasn’t written by one of their writers—it was written by the Kentucky school system over 100 years ago. Need help with some of the questions? Take a peek at the answer guide

Not only is the quiz fun to review, the Buzzfeed makeover is also interesting from a course design perspective. I really like how they gave the quiz a modern feel using stock photos and immediate, visual feedback. It was also a trip to see how much (or little) science I still remembered. 

Challenge of the Week 

This week your challenge is to design an e-learning quiz based on the 1912 Bullitt County quiz. You can use the entire quiz or pull selected questions to use in your example.
