Teachers direct student self assessment by asking students questions about their learning. The questions fall into four categories. Each category has an initial set of elements. Schools can add or delete elements from the default template listed below.
Explore | Create | Discuss | Reflect | Background | Writings | Informal | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Readings | Activities | Experts | Story |
Resources | Presentations | Teachers | Responses |
Assignments | New_Questions |    |     |
Teachers transform these elements into questions that help their students think about lessons. Examples of question sets are attached.
Teachers can also change the element names. Below is a template of element names that correspond more closely to the scientific method:
