Student Generated
If you want to up your Quizlet game, save time creating assessments, and increase student ownership of learning you are in the right place.
Classroom Procedure
Provide a brief in class review of the material a few classes before the assessment.
Provide the student with the digital resources (below) to submit their questions or create their own quiz.
You may want to tell each student to submit a certain number of questions.
You can also have them write the question on paper first, get a peer review, and then submit it.
Students can give feedback on questions as they play. This forces them to use higher order thinking to find the bad questions and answers. They aren’t being graded, so it is a safe place to make mistakes.
Only the teacher will know who submitted what question if they control the spreadsheet.
Allow time for students to review the questions and answers.
