Quizzes help in the development of memory, the foundation level in Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning.

Devise comprehension activities around the revised Bloom's Taxonomy. Low order does not mean that the level is bad, rather it means that this level needs to be more automatic before the other levels can be achieved. Bloom's taxonomy is one of the most used taxonomies related to education.  Developed in 1956, it was used to categorize levels of cognition.  Two of Bloom's proteges later revised the taxonomy (Krathwohl and Anderson, 2002).
