Creating Quizzes in Canvas to Help Students Prioritize Study Time
Imagine students being able to quiz themselves multiple times and then see statistics on how well they know each topic and even where to find the material they need to review. The initial pilot project for our 101 students has shown high voluntary participation as students can get feedback in a matter of minutes on what they know and directed where to study. In this presentation, Brian Chiswell will show how several components of Canvas, including Classic Quizzes, Question Banks, Outcomes, and the Mastery Gradebook, have been coordinated to provide students with real-time feedback as they are reviewing for exams.
