Quiz Carousel is a digital application to help students embed knowledge into their long-term memory while enabling pupil-teacher feedback. This is particularly relevant during the current lockdown when things that have been taught may be quickly forgotten, but the product is also urgently needed longer-term to facilitate homework, revision and embedding learning.The concept is well-researched and evidence based. There has been a welcome focus on the importance of a knowledge rich curriculum in recent years, and academic literature shows that taking memory tests improves long-term retention (a concept known as the testing effect).The product is based on an idea developed several years ago by science teacher Adam Boxer and prototyped in an Excel-based system called Retrieval Roulette. Adam's learning and feedback from a highly engaged teacher community of users has been incorporated into the new Quiz Carousel product, and he continues to lead on teacher engagement and customer voice.Quiz Carousel works as follows:1. **Teachers upload carefully sequenced questions** covering a whole curriculum.2. **Students take quizzes** combining questions from both recent and earlier curriculum areas, using adaptive learning and spaced repetition algorithms to select questions. Answers can be viewed as flashcards.3. **The system auto-marks where possible**, reducing the work burden for teachers.4. **Teachers offer feedback** on misconceptions and incorrect answers.We are committed to ensuring that a version of Quiz Carousel is available for free, forever. Longer-term we expect to build in paid-for features that enhance the learning experience.Quiz Carousel will play an important role in helping students to embed learning now more than ever, given its suitability for learning at distance. We offer a simple and easy-to-use way for schools and students to remain in contact through these difficult times, as well as a tool to help lock key curriculum knowledge into the long-term memory once things return to normal.EXTENSION FOR IMPACT FUNDINGOur initial funding allowed us to create a hugely popular prototype of the Carousel system. 1,200+ teachers are already using Carousel to set retrieval quizzes for over 20,000 students, with the product optimised for usage both remotely and in the classroom. This extension for impact funding will allow us to devise a long-term commercial model for Carousel by creating a paid-for version for subject departments and whole schools to complement the existing free teacher version, which we will continue to offer at no cost. We will also be able to develop innovative premium features, including more advanced auto-marking and intelligent spaced repetition, which adjusts the quizzes offered depending on the individual or class.

测验轮播是一款数字应用程序，可帮助学生将知识嵌入到他们的长期记忆中，同时实现学生与教师的反馈。这在当前的封锁期间尤其重要，因为已经教过的东西可能很快就会被忘记，但从长远来看，也迫切需要该产品来促进家庭作业、复习和嵌入学习。这个概念是经过充分研究和基于证据的。近年来，人们普遍关注知识丰富的课程的重要性，学术文献表明，进行记忆测试可以提高长期记忆力（这一概念称为测试效果）。该产品基于科学教师 Adam Boxer 几年前开发的一个想法，并在一个名为 Retrieval Roulette 的基于 Excel 的系统中进行了原型设计。 Adam 从高度参与的教师用户社区中学到的知识和反馈已融入到新的 Quiz Carousel 产品中，并且他继续在教师参与度和客户声音方面处于领先地位。Quiz Carousel 的工作原理如下：1。 **教师上传仔细排序的问题**，涵盖整个课程。2。 **学生参加测验**，结合最近和早期课程领域的问题，使用自适应学习和间隔重复算法来选择问题。答案可以以抽认卡的形式查看。3。 **系统自动评分**，减轻老师的工作负担。4． **教师针对误解和错误答案提供反馈**。我们致力于确保测验轮播版本永久免费提供。从长远来看，我们希望建立增强学习体验的付费功能。鉴于其适合远程学习，测验轮播将比以往任何时候都在帮助学生嵌入学习方面发挥重要作用。我们为学校和学生提供了一种简单易用的方式，让他们在困难时期保持联系，并提供了一种工具，可以在一切恢复正常后帮助将关键课程知识锁定到长期记忆中。影响力资金的扩展我们的初始资金使我们能够创建一个非常受欢迎的 Carousel 系统原型。超过 1,200 名教师已在使用 Carousel 为 20,000 多名学生设置检索测验，该产品针对远程和课堂使用进行了优化。此次影响力资金的延期将使我们能够为 Carousel 设计一个长期的商业模式，为学科部门和整个学校创建一个付费版本，以补充现有的免费教师版本，我们将继续免费提供该版本。我们还将能够开发创新的高级功能，包括更先进的自动标记和智能间隔重复，这可以根据个人或班级调整提供的测验。
