  7. Quizlet: • On paper: • +=Never Missed • -=Often Missed • ?=No Answers Yet Things I liked: -students had choice -students were given immediate feedback -students can have it read to them if they’d like -web-based so can be used on any device -activities were much more engaging than what I can come up with on paper/pencil Things I didn’t like: -I still had to have students give me paper feedback since I don’t have the paid account
