As an extension of Jenova Chen's Flow in Games thesis, Active Quiz is a demonstration of how the passive and negative experience of a traditional quiz can be vastly improved and turns into a rather positive and active activity by using interactive design and positive psychology, which are well known to today's video game design community.

Notice this is not a video game. It is not designed to draw you in for hours like flOw. This is a statement to raise awareness of the use of games in education. It is time for the education community to use video game design to improve techniques in education. More specifically, to help students enjoy taking test.
