Quotes by Norman Eng (?)

“A second alternative to clickers is to use color-coded index cards. When asking about their level of understanding of a particular topic, students can raise a green card (concept is understood), a yellow card (concept may need some clarification), or a red card (concept requires better explanation). Simply scanning the room for these colors can indicate where the class stands. This also reinforces the idea that the color-coded system reflects your ability as a teacher to clearly communicate, rather than the student’s ability to understand.”

“Often, students understand that if they say, “I don’t know,” the teacher will move on to someone who does know, which undermines their motivation to participate. The best way to address this is to move on to other students, listen to their responses, and then go back to the first student and ask him/her to paraphrase.”
