1 year ago A good idea in principle. Let's talk about this in person at some point. The multiple-choice stuff on the website is cool of course, but it's been pretty unstable, so a bit hard to work with. I wonder if we'd be saving ourselves a lot of headaches by moving to a plain-html module site and outsourcing the questions/exercises to another platform. But we should discuss all this in person, probably after the end of the module (or close to the end).
A structured evaluation of the participation of the students concerning reading the provided materials and discussion in the class should be developed.
We could remove the multiple choice questions and introduce them in a Mentimeter, which the students can take at the beginning of the class, showing us how well they have understood the content ( 3 to 4 questions in 15 minutes max.). The concepts that have been misunderstood can then be discussed in detail.
Another activity that can be adopted to ensure students read the content posted for them is by providing one discussion question per group in the class. The student leading the discussion ( a different student every week) would present this to the class after 15 minutes. The tutor could document the participation of the students. This will form the base for the participation grade of the student.
