2024 semester-end survey asked students to rate twelve course elementson a 4-point scale from “not at all effective” (1) to “highly effective” (4) in aiding their learning.The majority of the class found the quiz effective, giving it a mean ranking of 2.66. However, itis notable that only the exam corrections assignment (the other major metacognitive activity) wasrated lower than this. It is the perception of the instructors that the fall semester cohorts tend toengage more with these aspects of the course, and they plan to repeat this survey for severalsemesters to determine if there is a difference between the semesters. Regardless, there is roomfor improvement in how metacognition is encouraged in the course.AttendanceAttendance is
