Exit Cards: Creating a Dialogue for Continuous Evaluation
Patka, Mazna; Wallin-Ruschman, Jennifer; Wallace, Tenille; Robbins, Candice
Teaching in Higher Education, v21 n6 p659-668 2016
This study explored the use of Exit Cards, which are formative evaluations of student knowledge and instruction undertaken at every class meeting. Its results are based on Exit Card data from two undergraduate research methods courses. Thematic analysis indicated that students used Exit Cards to communicate (1) what they learned, (2) challenges with course material, (3) experiences with peers, (4) requests for help, (5) challenges with coping, and (6) successes. While the present study is an initial exploration of the use of Exit Cards, it contributes to knowledge on the utilization of informal formative assessments.
