iQuiz

Introduction

iQuiz is an LTI compliant Python (Django) application for creating and offering quizzes in MOOCs platforms. It can easily be integrated with LTI consumers (tested only with Open edX currently), and the instructor can start creating the quizzes they want to offer. iQuiz can be extended and modified to support various types of questions as required.

To use iQuiz, first install the iQuiz on the server (local machine for development), and then to use it in the openEdx, we have to The installation process of iQuiz is same as that of installing a django application on a server. For deployment in production, you must enable the SSL certificate to encrypt the data being transferred as LTI (OAuth) relies on the HTTPS for security. You can follow any guide available on internet to deploy Django Applications while in production , but if you don't want to invest time in deployment, then you can consider checking out Python Anywhere or Heroku like PaaS.

The quick installation for development and testing purpose is given below:

Instructions are for Ubuntu or Debian with Python 3.6 installed, for other system the process will slightly vary.
