Online education is changing the entire landscape of education. Consider this –

 “Five years from now on the Web for free you’ll be able to find the best lectures in the world. It will be better than any single university.”

Technological advancements, proliferation of low cost Internet enabled devices, reducing cost of broadband with increasing speed and coverage, all are making online education much more accessible and effective. Online education is becoming more and more integral part of modern education.

 

An important aspect of online education is online quizzing. Quizzing makes learning fun. Online quizzing let students test their knowledge against their peers in an interactive and interesting environment. The desire to score higher than ones’ peers motivates a student to acquire more knowledge. This is the fastest way to acquire mastery over a subject. While there are lot of virtual classrooms and e-learning courses available on web, there is an acute shortage of means to evaluate the knowledge acquired by the students. Though there are many quizzing websites and apps, finding a quality online resource that provides complete coverage, especially for school subjects, is really hard to find.
