Quizzes, Homeworks and Revision all draw on the same question bank, so what is the difference and which should you use? The key elements are that:
- Quizzes and Homeworks are assigned. Revision is not.
- Homeworks and Revision use CAT and Ebbinghaus schedules. Quizzes do not.
The following table fleshes this out a little.
