TCU Online: Using the Quizzes Tool for Online Assessments

Instructors can use the Quizzes tool within TCU Online to create and manage a variety of points-measured assessments. These various assessments help instructors evaluate student learning and progress toward learning outcomes. Within the Quizzes tool, instructors can perform ongoing assessment of student understanding; create formative and summative assessments; target a range of learning styles by providing a variety of question types and multimedia; collect assessment data to measure instructional effectiveness; and share feedback in a timely and effective manner.

The Quizzes tool is also integrated with Respondus LockDown Browser to create a more secure assessment environment.
