For the “Minute Paper” the instructor takes a few minutes atthe end of class for students to answer two questions, generally what they learned and whatquestion(s) remains unclear/unanswered. The instructor can review the comments and address themost common comments in the next class as well as quickly assess a student's learning andunderstanding [8]. Eliciting information from students on the topic that is most confusing, or the“muddiest point”, has been applied for years in many different classrooms including GeneralChemistry [8], [9], [10].
