Should I do IOA or in class quiz? [Traditional]

IOAs act as a question bank for the midterms. So it helps you get a better grade by studying them before a midterm or a final.

Also, you get immediate feedback (you can review which questions you got right and/or wrong) after the IOA, that's a plus.

How is a quiz different than IOA? [New Student]

IOA or Individual online assessments are a user-friendly version of quiz. The term IOA is used to distinguish it from the traditional paper based quiz system as the IOAs are performed online (compared to paper-based quiz) and longer in duration (1 day or more).

IOAs are often used as a replacement of Individual assignments and/or quiz.
