Hot Potatoes is an app that lets you create your own tests such as cross word puzzles, multiple choice, short answer tests, matching term test, and one that combines all of them together. the app is really 6 combined to let you to be able to create your own tests. There is six choices to choose from, the choices are jcloze, jmatch, jquiz, jcross, jmix, and the masher. Jcloze closes it, jmatch allows you to create matching tests, jquiz allows you to create a test, jmix allows you to create a test of 2 things and the masher is all tests together. so baicily all this app is, is a test creater. This is jcross.

This is jquiz. This is jmatch.

In order to create a test you have to click on one of the potatoes that say jmix, jcross, jmatch, jmix, jquiz or on the boot that says the masher. After you choose which you want it comes up as a blank screen that looks like one of those above.

I think that this will help us in math class because we can make study quizzes and we can take the quiz on the computers. It can also help to see what we know and don't know before we start a chapter. For example in math we can take a pretest so we know what we are doing before we do it and the teacher will know what to teach. If we used it for fractions we could skip some of the things she has to teach because we would know it. This is how we can use this app in school to help work us learn.
