摘要

This paper presents the design, development, and evaluation of Just-in-time Quiz (JiTQ)—a novel tool that integrates real-time attendance tracking with synchronous formative assessment. Motivated by the need to streamline classroom management and enhance student engagement, JiTQ enables QR-based participation, automated attendance recording, and immediate feedback through live quizzes. Developed as a native Moodle plugin, it leverages the Moodle API for seamless integration and accessibility across devices. The system was deployed during the 2024–25 academic year at Oman Dental College across undergraduate dentistry modules. Faculty received training and support resources, and the tool was actively used in regular sessions. Data from system logs indicate strong adoption: 651 quiz instances were recorded across 67 modules, generating over 60,000 student attempts from 476 unique users. Student and faculty feedback, gathered through surveys, highlighted the tool’s usability, impact on engagement, and potential for data-driven teaching. JiTQ demonstrates how combining attendance and just-in-time assessment can lead to improved instructional efficiency, higher student attentiveness, and enhanced learning outcomes. Its integration into daily teaching practice offers a scalable model for real-time classroom interaction and ongoing learner evaluation. Future enhancements aim to expand its analytics capabilities and support adaptive learning strategies.
