[Academic] Physics Playground

[Brian]

Dear All,

Please find attached a very useful 'Myplace Quiz Checklist' time-saver 
to help ensure that your MyPlace assessments will work for the students. 
It will also be on the MyPlace Physics Playground page.

Many thanks to John Jeffers and Konstantinos Lagoudakis for putting this 
together at short notice.

Regards,

Brian.
