Description

As Moodle continues to be widely used for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teaching, the integration of AI in item creation is becoming increasingly relevant. This presentation explores how AI can streamline the development of high-quality quiz items, offering practical insights into its capabilities and limitations. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the dos and don'ts when using AI tools for this purpose, ensuring ethical and effective implementation in their classrooms or programs. All items discussed in this session are contributed as open courseware and will be available for free download in the MAJ Showcase, further supporting the EFL teaching community.

The Word Reach vocabulary quizzes are a pivotal component of the TOEIC Self-Study Program developed by Paul Daniels at the Kochi Institute of Technology. This program features a curated list of approximately 1,200 frequently appearing TOEIC words, organized into thematic quizzes to optimize language acquisition. Initially, quiz items were randomly selected; however, the current iteration presents a structured format, offering around 20 preselected vocabulary items per quiz using a vocabulary profiler. Each semester includes 15 quizzes across Lessons A and B, providing a robust and systematic approach to vocabulary enhancement.
