I really like these quizzes. I’ve learned quite a bit by taking them.reviewing from time to time. They seem to be a good teaching tool because instead of interpreting a labeled drawing to field identification, they express field identification in terms of the drawing. For me this makes the lesson more clear and more easily retained. Thank you.
