Description
The Minute Paper and Muddiest Point strategies are commonly used classroom assessment techniques (CATs) that take little time and can be used at the end of any class or module. These strategies provide feedback on whether an instructor's goal or focus of instructional time or engagement matches their students' understanding or learning.
In this session, participants will explore the various evidence-based approaches to incorporating minute paper and muddiest point activities across disciplines and teaching contexts. Barriers to effective implementation and tips for effective practice will be discussed. Participants are only asked to arrive motivated to improve practice, and they’ll leave with a plan for effective, evidence-based change using the Minute Paper and Muddiest Point!
