Low stakes assessment to improve knowledge uptake

In this activity

Providing students with low-stake knowledge check moments, allows them to have a moment to reflect, and assess where they currently stand. It can help them consolidate knowledge further, and understand where they may need to focus more of their energy in the course and study material.

With helpful analytics, as an instructor you’ll also be able to better gauge where your group of students currently are, and optimize in class teaching teaching for that.

Other features help you set up a quiz that is low stakes and focusses on student learning, not necessarily assessment.

In this activity:

  • Read instructions: Go through the instructions to understand the activity requirements. Note any guidelines or criteria provided by the instructor
  • Take quiz: Complete the quiz by answering the questions provided. Use the tool's features to answer multiple-choice, open-ended, or scratch-off questions as specified. You can track your progress and retake the quiz if needed to improve your understanding and performance.

  • Scratch-off card: Turn on the scratch off card option to help students use their deductive reasoning to get to the correct answer if they do not immediately answer correctly.
  • Answer explanations: Attach materials and files to answer explanations.
