Describe the instructional activities that will occur PRIOR to the SRT activity and how you will introduce
the SRT activity.
Before the Plickers activity, we will have class discussions on Martin Luther King Jr., we will be watching a
video on the life of MLK where the students are to fill out a worksheet that goes along with the video, and
there will also be a couple of homework assignments for the students to do prior to taking this quiz in class.
Describe the purpose of the SRT activity (check all that apply):
Assess prior knowledge Anticipatory set (Create interest in a topic) To illuminate common
misconceptions Formative assessment of content knowledge (for purpose of differentiation and
mastery for ALL students) Summative assessment of content knowledge Test preparation

Briefly describe what will happen DURING the SRT activity: The students will get out their plicker cards
that have been assigned to them. I will let them know we are going to take a quiz that should not last more
than 10 minutes on Martin Luther King Jr. The purpose of this quiz is to help the students reiterate what they

have been learning and to help me as the teacher know which students may be struggling and need extra
help.

Type of questions/prompts used in this activity (check all that apply):

Multiple choice Multiple select True/False Yes/No
Short open-ended response or fill-in the blank Longer open-ended response

If you are unable to provide a working sample of your questions, please list them below (8-10):

Right/Wrong answers: Will there be right/wrong answers to these questions?

Yes No
Mixed (Some will have correct answers, other will not.)

Immediate corrective feedback: Will you pre-select correct answers to some of all of the questions and
display correct response to the class after the SRT activity?
Yes
No
Why or why not?
I will select the correct answers then display the results at the end so the whole class can go over the answers
and further explain the questions that were commonly missed by the class.
Describe what will happen AFTER the SRT activity? After the SRT is completed using Plickers, we will go
over the whole assessment which will help me find out who is struggling most with the correct answers and
what I need to go over again to help the class out as a whole.

How will the data be used?

Each students grade will be collected; this will count as a quiz grade. We will go over the results as a class and
the students will also be getting their grade from me with a note for what the students need to work on
individually. I want the students to be familiar with the information so when we have our big unit test, they
will be better prepared.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity.
I am wanting the students to have more fun options of taking quizzes then the typical pencil and paper
quizzes. I want the students to be engaged and have fun, while also learning.
