The "Traditional" Way

1. Visit one of the existing quizzes which has the type of questions you wish to write.
   • mc-dw-te.html Multiple-choice Template
   • mc001-ck.html Fill In the Blank Template
2. Save that page as "source", to get the HTML version onto your disk.
3. Read the "source" with a text editor or a word processor.
4. Delete the unnecessary stuff, add your own stuff. (Just substitute your own questions and answers in place of the existing ones.)
5. E-mail it to: (The Internet TESL Journal).
6. We will then put it online and link to it from the self-study quizzes main page.
