==To Do==
 +
===Sharing===
 +
It should be possible for a 'quiz-giver' to share a quiz so that each 'quiz-taker' can respond either at the quiz-giver's pace or at their own pace. The quiz-giver should be able to see the responses with a highlight showing correct and incorrect responses. This feature will be implemented using as much of the existing code in the ClassroomPresenter (or ShowNTell) activity as possible given that Quiz is implemented in pygame not gtk.
 +
In the sharing mode, verbal responses should also be possible - although checked manually by the quiz-giver.
 +
===Scorekeeping===
 +
The scorekeeping display should be made more appealing (and game-like). The number of points given for a correct answer should be adjusted based on the response time. For example, there should be a way to save the sum of the response times for the math facts so that one could demonstrate the ability to respond correctly to all 100 in (say) less than one minute. The response time is measured from when the question can be answered (it is displayed) until the answer is given (hit return). There probably should be audible 'ataboys' for beating one's best time or for getting all answers correct (first box is empty).
 +
===Question types===
 +
It should be possible to have an audio prompt for an imagequiz question.
 +
Cloze questions should be possible for flashcards.
 +
There could be a 'quiz' mode in which (say) ten questions are presented at one time (true/false or multiple choice).
 +
The matching image algorithm could be easily adapted to text multiple choice questions. In addition, educators might like a multiple-choice
 +
question where the 'wrong' answers are also specified.
 +
It might be possible to have an 'arithmetic' quiz with automatically generated questions.
 +
===Collections===
 +
For learning vocabulary or math facts or spelling, it would be desirable to have a quiz 'collection'. The user would be able to add a quiz to a collection. For example, the new vocabulary list for this week would be added to the vocabulary collection. The user could then practice the new vocablulary as well as review the earlier words. As the words are learned they would advance to the fifth box and not be seen again. There would be a 'review' option: all questions in the fifth box would be moved to the fourth box for that quiz; those answered correctly move back to the fifth box; while those answered incorrectly move to the first box. This would require them to answered correctly four times in a row to get back to the fifth box. One obvious use for this capability is to review for a high-stakes test or to review at the start of a new school year.
