Bensky, Tom - CSU Quiz: An In-Class Instant Student Feedback System - Page 4
Exchanges: The On-line Journal of Teaching and Learning in the CSU


In smaller classroom environments (20 - 30 students), the computer monitor can be rotated toward the students so they, too, can see how they did as a class. (If you would like to see this feedback system in action, look at my sample quiz .) Some classrooms are equipped with a computer projector, which is a fantastic option that can be used to project both the quiz and quiz results on the wall, for high visual impact.

After the students have all "clicked in" their answers, it is now the instructor's turn to do something with the results. Whether I project the results onto the wall or simply read them from a monitor that only I can see, the class is generally at attention. The students seem to sense that I really know exactly how much they just learned (or did not learn). I like to read each question and tell them what percentage of the class chose which answer. Then I dicuss the question and correct answer with the class.
