CAT's are the key

I plan on using the CAT concept as much as possible. I know one concept that has been working well for me is that I make my students take weekly chapter quizzes over the weekend. Once we meet back into the classroom the following week, I break the students down into teams, and they engage in interactive activities that I’ve created. The student’s love this concept, because they all are very knowledgeable in the subject matters at hand, which tells me that they did read the chapters; and every single one of them participate. I’m always thoroughly impressed by how they know the answers to the questions. The participation is so good, that we always have to be told to keep the excitement down from other classes. Now with using this process, I will engage the students that scored low on the quizzes more to make sure they’re taking notes of the questions and answers provided from their team members during the interactive exercise.
