Activity Description

Claude Title
 
Create any type of quiz customized to your specific teaching material in minutes!

Claude.ai's Artifact app will take a simple prompt and/or an uploaded document and create an interactive quiz app (Yes! An actual app!) that you can link to online, download, or embed in your LMS.

Preparation

  1. Check the website to ensure it is not blocked at your site.
  2. Read through the lesson plan.
  3. Run through the complete quiz to ensure that there are no errors.

How-To

First, sign into Claude.ai. You may use your district SSO (if permitted) or just use any email. The app will send an access code to that email address which you use to enter Claude.

On the left edge menu, click on the Artifact icon.

Claude Options
 
 Claude gives a few options, like creating an app, website, games, etc., but I recommend selecting "Start from scratch".

In the prompt area, click the plus sign ("+") and upload the document for which you'd like Claude to create a quiz, like an article or a vocabulary list. (Note: Be aware of copyright laws when uploading articles.)

Then, type your instructions on how you want Claude to create the quiz. I recommend using the term 'interactive' in your prompt. Your prompt can be simple, such as "Create a 10 question interactive quiz using the article that I've attached," or you can be much more specific, like:

Caude Netiquette Prompt 1
 
(Note: if your LMS allows for SCORM packages, you can embed the Claude-generated app right into your LMS. There are other ways to have it generate your app. See "More Ways" below.)

Claude will automatically generate a plan for your artifact prior to generating the app. This is so you can review what the AI will do and make any corrections or tweaks before it creates it. Here's what Claude gave me:

Caude Netiquette Prompt 2

I had a couple of corrections which I told it: "I like the topics but please lower the reading level at least one level down."

Claude checked in one final time:

Caude Netiquette Prompt 3
 
 

Once I was satisfied, I asked Claude to create the app.

Here's the app that it created.

Teacher Tips

Again, always test the app prior to distributing it to your students. If any problems arise, just ask Claude to help to fix it.

More Ways

Claude's default option for formatting the app is set to HTML format. That's the computer language that most apps use.

Once it has generated the app, you have many options:

The default setting is for Claude to prompt you to publish the app. Claude will publish the app to the web and provide a unique link to the app which you can copy and provide to your students, publish in your LMS, create a QR code from, etc. Note, this will be a stand-alone app not connected to any specific website.

You can also download the app as an HTML file which will allow you and students to open the app on their device even if they're not connected to the internet.

In addition, you can prompt Claude to save the app in pretty much any other format, like a SCORM zip file or in HTML code (if you'd like to manually embed it onto a website.)

In addition, you could ask Claude to generate it as a PDF or Word document. These won't be interactive, most likely.

Since Claude is an AI bot, you could also ask it about other formats and it will help you to figure out how to make it work.

You'll want to make sure that the product which it generates is fully functionable prior to distributing it to your class. I had it generate a pdf but the file wouldn't read. The great thing is that Claude can troubleshoot any problems that arise. You just have to ask!
