Teaching Strategies : The open-homework quiz
Manage episode 289305366 series 2897167
Incentive homework without having to grade it
Last week we discussed using quizzes as a poll for student’s comprehension of the material. This week, we’re turning that idea on its head. Let’s discuss the use of quizzes to motivate students to LEARN the material. Compulsory homework motivates students to only do problems once. And some problems are probably worth doing multiple times.It’s self-defeating all around. So how do you get the notoriously short-time-horizon motivated high school and college students to do their homework? The open-homework quiz.
