Abstract:

An assistant professor of Japanese and an instructional technologist teamed up to create online review quizzes for students of intermediate Japanese at Gettysburg College. Because of the convenience of online delivery, these quizzes were well suited to the needs of today's liberal arts students who often participate in many extracurricular activities. Student use of these quizzes increased over the course of the semester, and the benefits to them were measurable, especially in those students who had performed poorly in the class prior to the adoption of the online quizzes.
