Using Carousel for Whole Class Feedback

IMPORTANT:To get the most out of Whole Class Feedback, you should first mark the quiz you want to give feedback on. Just click on the 3 dots under the 'Actions' column, on the right of the 'My Quizzes', for the quiz you want to mark, then click 'Mark Quiz' (click here for the Knowledge Base article on marking quizzes).

Carousel Learning can be used to facilitate Whole Class Feedback on quizzes (see this blogpost by our Education Director, Adam Boxer, for more on the theory behind WCF). This feature is available for Gold and Platinum subscribers.

WCF can be accessed by clicking on the three dots in the ACTIONS column, and selecting 'Feedback', or by clicking the 'Feedback' button that appears when you have finished marking a quiz.

Every Carousel quiz automatically generates a Whole Class Feedback (WCF) report that includes:

• average and top scores;
• 'What you found hardest' – the 3 questions most commonly answered incorrectly (more if there is a tie);
• 'What I found interesting' – questions and answers selected during the marking process that you found interesting and want to include in class discussion/feedback.

The 'What I found interesting' section is where the answers you selected when marking to 'Include in feedback' appear. You can also include both student answers and model answers in this section (see here for more).

If you click 'Show Answer', the students will see the answers you selected, offering a useful springboard for whole class discussion around common errors and misconceptions, harsh or lenient self-marking, or spelling. Following discussion you then have the option to change the marking to correct or incorrect. See our article on Marking Quizzes for more on this.
