How do students
find AR books they want to read? AR Enterprise does allow you to "find a
quiz". You can enter a title and/or author to see if there is a quiz for a
certain book. QuizList goes much further. It empowers students to browse
your quiz list and make lists of books they would be interested in reading. A
student can find all quizzes about horses or airplanes in a specific reading
level range and then click on the titles to read more about them. If a title
strikes her fancy, it can be added to her printer list. This student will come
into your library the next day with list in hand of books she wants to check
out.
Book Lists
You are also able
to create book lists using QuizList to guide students' choices. Create a list
of fantasy books similar to Harry Potter to get students to explore the rest
of the genre. Use events like "Black History Month" to highlight titles of
interest. Your faculty can create their own reading lists to supplement their
curriculum and students may create their own book lists to recommend titles to
other students.
Quiz/Book
Matching
When you have
almost 100,000 quizzes, it becomes very important for the students to know
which quizzes you have a book for in the library. QuizList comes with an
optional feature called QuizList Match that enables quiz/book matching in just
minutes. Not only will the students know which quizzes you have a book for,
but your call numbers are also transferred to your quiz list for inclusion on
the students print outs. QuizList Match also gives you reports to help you
focus your book purchases on books you need to match existing quizzes --
something that used to take weeks of work to accomplish by hand. Read more
