Forexample, if many students are receiving high scores in Connection, this can be an indicator ofhealthy classroom culture and shows students are actively listening to their peers. Conversely, ifstudents are receiving low confidence scores, this may indicate there is an issue with students notbeing comfortable responding and could identify room for improvement in the classroomenvironment.Two independent raters observed the introductory activities. To normalize scoring techniques,both raters scored all respondents in the first week of class and compared scoring, and thenalternated attendance.Implementing the Activity

UsefulnessPerceptions of usefulness often revealed shortcomings of online teaching in that it removedhelpful measures, such as being reminded of due dates during in-person classes. Several of theauthors noted that while cameras were an inherently useful tool for online learning, they feltuncomfortable trying to enforce their use. Malori wrote in her reflections: The feedback loop of seeing if students understand/when they’re done writing is still pretty much gone - but some students do have their cameras on, so I use them as the gauge. Otherwise I have to rely on students asking questions or for them to tell me to go back a slide.Much of the time, the authors perceived a technology to be useful if students engaged more withit.

/ methodcomparison of student outcomes and observations on adopting the new method.Based on the results of numerous informal classroom experiments and hundreds of informaldiscussions with students, it was determined that most students do not use effective studystrategies to fully understand key concepts and to master problem solving techniques. Instead,the goal of their current studying and test taking strategies is to “maximize partial credit.” Thesestrategies work as follows. 1. Memorize problems from the homework, in-class examples, or previous exams. 2. Match each problem on the exam to one of the memorized problems that most closely resembles it. 3. Write down the memorized solution, making adjustments along the way so that the solution
