    Designing and Implementing Quizzes for Effective Learning in PGR Education.

    This poster is submitted as my Digital Artefact in support of my Associate Fellowship application. It presents the pedagogic rationale for using low-stakes quizzes in PGR teaching, alongside practical strategies for their implementation in both synchronous and asynchronous online environments. Drawing on my teaching practice, the poster outlines how quizzes can be used diagnostically to identify gaps in learning and formatively to support active engagement, check understanding, and provide timely feedback.

    It also highlights how carefully designed question types, such as MCQs and short-answer responses, can develop key analytical skills, including critical evaluation, application, and interpretation. The poster is informed by student feedback and indicative outcomes, demonstrating the effectiveness of quiz-based approaches in promoting interaction and supporting learning in virtual settings. Above all, the poster reflects an evidence-informed, learner-centred approach to digital pedagogy, aligned with the expectations of Associate Fellowship.

    Advice for reuse

    Colleagues can use the guidance provided in the poster as a framework to design their own low-stakes quizzes tailored to their discipline or module content. The quiz strategies can be incorporated into lectures, seminars, or online sessions to check understanding and prompt discussion. The poster could also be shared with students to explain the purpose of quizzes and encourage engagement with formative assessment. It is my hope that the poster can eventually be expanded and developed into a short guidance document or toolkit for designing and evaluating quiz-based activities. Likewise, it can support LTA workshops or CPD sessions as an example of effective, evidence-informed digital pedagogy.
