Some research reports anincrease in learning 23 and other reports no significant difference in relation to traditionalinstruction 25.

It encouraged me topursue this project more actively with a motivation to understand if there is indeed arelationship between these two factors. If administered properly, we also hypothesise thatonline quizzes will be able to save time for instructors in the long run, which is a significantadvantage in this age of ever increasing expectations from an academic citizen.
