This Quiz App was delevoped at the Institute for Systems Theory and Automatic Control of the University of Stuttgart and accompanies the lectures "Einführung in die Regelungstechnik" and "Konzepte der Regelungstechnik" at the University of Stuttgart. The app content is updated according to the progress of the lecture and is only available in German, which is the language of the lectures.
In this app, the students are provided with short and simple quizzes. The presented questions are based on past lectures with the purpose to help the students revise the covered material. After each lecture, a new set of questions bundled in so called 'Kurztests' are uploaded. The students get instant feedback on whether their answer was correct and even additional explanation via an information button is available whenever sensible. At the end of every short quiz, the students receives a summarizing feedback on his performance. Furthermore, the students have the possibility to go back to their answers to review their mistakes and finally also delete their answers to redo the test.
For more information on the Quiz App and its underlying concepts, we refer the reader to a paper with the title "Smartphone Apps for Learning Progress and Course Revision" that we presented at the IFAC World Congress 2020. This paper focuses on the usage of the app in the course "Einführung in die Regelungstechnik".
We hope you enjoy using the app, and we are of course highly appreciating any feedback.
