Recommendations for Implementation
- Start by building a tagged question bank aligned to your curriculum.

- Use item analysis after each run to remove ambiguous questions and rebalance difficulty.
- Combine with formative assessments for ongoing feedback rather than relying solely on summative tests.
If you want, I can draft sample quiz settings, a CSV template for imports, or a one-week rollout plan for teachers.
