Thinking
and writing during a hyperstudio-based quiz.
Most
people treat a mistake on a written quiz as something bad...a sign that I don't
remember an answer.
On
our quizzes, we are asked to do more than to remember a short answer. We are
asked to THINK.
Our
quizzes give us the opportunity to remember information and to reflect on how
the information is connected...how it relates to other information. We have
to discover and explain what the information MEANS.
Isn't this the very way that adults
remember information, discuss it, re-think explanations, and create new understandings,
new KNOWLEDGE?
