Using Technology Tools for Student Generated Test Prep
Student-Generated Test Questions is a way of retrieving or recalling previously learned information and processing it. The activity asks students to create likely exam questions on specific content topics along with ideal answers. By having students create questions, students will recall and process content. This session will focus on leveraging technology to easily collect student generated questions and create learning review opportunities for all students. Options shared will be ideal for Spring flex learning days.
