Right/Wrong answers: Will there be right/wrong answers to these questions?

Yes No
Mixed (Some will have correct answers, other will not.)

Immediate corrective feedback: Will you pre-select correct answers to some of all of the questions and
display correct response to the class after the SRT activity?
Yes
No
Why or why not?
The class will be able to work together, talking through all the questions to figure out what the right answers
are and why those are the right answers.

Describe what will happen AFTER the SRT activity?

Each student will be given individual feedback based on their performance of the quiz, as the other students
work in groups discussing the book or flashcards.

How will the data be used? Data collected will be used to monitor progress of students as they learn various
things about the earth. At the end of the theme the collected grades will be added to the total grade for the
class. The data will also be used to different instruction based on the needs of the students. The instruction
will be narrowed down to the exact area the students did not fare very well in. The differentiated instruction
will help reinforce the areas that the students have been helped through.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity. This mode of instruction, Quizlet, is new to me,
considering that I have only used pencil and paper or questioning as a way to assess comprehension or
knowledge. In using this program, I hope that the students will be able to easily understand the information
that is being given to them and actually enjoy learning the content. I will pay attention as I use this program
to determine the benefits in relation to other forms of instruction delivery.
