  1. It could be really simple • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRBW8eJGTVs

  2. During the last few minutes of the class period, ask students to answer on a half-sheet of paper: "What is the most important point you learned today?"; and, "What point remains least clear to you?“; or, “I was surprised to learn that…” The One Minute Paper

  3. One minute paper • The next class you can review responses and note any useful comments. During the next class periods emphasize the issues illuminated by your students’ comments.

  4. Chain notes • Students pass around an envelope on which the teacher has written one question about the class. When the envelope reaches a student he/she spends a moment to respond to the question and then places the response in the envelope. • Go through the student responses and discuss the patterns of responses with students.

  5. Revealing Details • Students fill in cells of a two-dimensional diagram for which instructor has provided labels. For example, in a literature course, labels might consist of characters (Daisy Miller, Mr. Winterbourne) and themes (innocence, the gentleman); students enter symbols or setting in cells to demonstrate their ability to show how theme and character are created through an author’s choice and use of fictional elements.

  6. Paraphrasing • Ask students to write a their "translation" of something that you have just given a lecture on. For example, characteristics of the Gothic, or its relationship to the Enlightenment. • Ask other students to respond to the “translations.” Did they leave key ideas out? Etc.

  7. One-sentencesummary • Similar to paraphrasing, ask students to summarize knowledge of a topic by constructing a single sentence that answers the questions "Who does what to whom, when, where, how, and why?" The purpose is to require students to select only the defining features of an idea. • Have them read out sentences and ask the class to evaluate the quality of each summary quickly and holistically (i.e. whether students have identified the essential concepts of the topic and their interrelationships.
