Content Refresher: Using Exam Wrappers

Are you searching for ways to support students in becoming more self-directed learners?

Consider using exam wrappers to help students reflect on their performance and identify areas where they might improve. An exam wrapper consists of questions that prompt students to think about how they prepared for an exam, the strategies they used during an exam, and the specific types of questions they found challenging. By completing an exam wrapper, students are able to better understand of their strengths and weaknesses and can use this information to guide next steps for their future exam preparation.

Ask Yourself: How might you use data from exam wrappers to inform your teaching and support students in their preparation for exams?
