Project Quantum gives teachers and students access to a bank of multiple-choice questions to use in teaching computing. Nearly 8,000 questions have been uploaded to the website and app, which are free to use.
The project is the brainchild of computer scientist Professor Simon Peyton Jones and teacher trainer Miles Berry and it is hoped that if it proves successful the approach could be extended to other subjects, including maths, English and science.
Project Quantum enables teachers to set their students a handful of questions and quickly get an understanding of how their class as a whole, and each individual pupil, is doing. The majority of questions in the bank are geared towards secondary education, with fewer questions for primary school teachers and their students – but the hope is that this will change as more teachers get to know about the service and donate questions to the database.
