Classroom Assessment Techniques

Hi Julia - welcome to class! I think that with adult subject matter experts as students the CATs would be less necessary as feedback from this audience would be more readily given.

Hi Gary - Nice post - thank you! Students do often "tune out" due to frustration because their learning styles are never taken into account.

Classroom Assessment Techniques

Hi Amy -not sure how to get students to verbalize what they didn't learn because if they did't learn it they probably don't know they didn't learn it (-; You could have them tell what they found was the hardest to learn/understand. It's likely that those topics will be what some students did not learn at all.

Hi Flavio! I think you really do a great job in engaging your students before you start to present. Too often we lose them before we even start!
