In 2018 I introduced online quiz banks to Physics 1A and Physics 1B. The introduction of these banks corresponded with a 12% improvement in final exam marks for students enrolled in Physics 1A, PHYS1121. Getting these quizzes introduced was a long process.

While introducing prelab tests in Moodle for the laboratory component of the Physics 1A and 1B courses it became clear that there

Laboratories are a very important part of first year physics. Physics is an experimental science, the laboratories show students that what they are learning about in lectures applies in the real world, they also give them the skills in analyzing data and calculating uncertainties. I have designed our lab exercises to develop these skills but also to reinforce the areas of the course that
