Torque 3D 1.

2 Education: Comprehensive FPS Tutorial

Quiz Examples

These Torque 3D 1.2 Quiz Examples are designed to test reading comprehension and memory.
The Torque 3D 1.2 Comprehensive FPS Tutorial covers a vast amount of information over several
disciplines. It is recommended that quizzes are used as a tool for rewarding those who have read
the material. The learning will come from the repetition of the material over the teaching period.

Note: The reading homework is currently the first exposure to the materials in the accompanying
syllabus; therefore the testing difficulty level is low. These quiz questions are generally too easy
for midterm and final testing.

Note: It is recommended that 5 to 10 test questions are given for a quiz of the first reading of the
materials. Example questions are given here to provide some source curriculum materials and
examples that fall within the current rubric.

Note: Lesson 1 Quiz: Setup and Overview setup is recommended only for longer classes than the
recommended 52 hours for this curriculum.

Note: Lesson 3: Introduction to Scripting is spread out over 3 classes and 3 quizzes to cover the
breadth of the materials in this lesson.
