Formative Feedback: Technologies to Maximize Impact with Minimal Effort

There are three goals for this interactive session: present, implement, and play. The session includes our SoTL research on students’ perception of the academic and affective impact of a new feedback tool, using a survey of student feedback preference in varied categories. We also demonstrate other applications used in our courses to increase engagement with and among students. Finally, attendees have the opportunity to play with the technologies, experimenting with possible uses in their own coursework, sharing in small groups, and discovering new possibilities. Attendees may bring a tablet or laptop, though demonstrations can be accessed with any internet-enabled device
