We hope that this resource will be of support for you and your school community. Students then hand these in as they exit the classroom or transition to the next lesson, providing you with helpful feedback and information that can guide your interactions with students and inform your next lesson for that subject.
You will want to make sure that exit tickets are anonymous if you are soliciting any feedback on your teaching practice, so that students are able to answer honestly.
For more general feedback, share the feedback you received and any changes you plan to make based on it. For questions with a correct answer, make sure to share that answer with students, either in the following class, a Canvas Announcement, or a recorded video. Close the loop: When students submit their exit ticket, they want to know you have read it and are doing something with that information.If, instead, you are asking questions that may elicit changes to student or instructor behavior, give everyone some time for students to experience those adjustments before soliciting additional feedback. Determine frequency: If you are checking for student understanding, a different question at the end of most classes could be useful for both you and your students.We recommend that students spend no more than a minute or two writing their answer, which usually means just asking one or two questions at a time. 1 Question, 1 Minute: Students may become overwhelmed if you ask them to spend too much time completing an exit ticket.Keep these in mind as you look at the example questions on the following page.
Considerations When Using Exit TicketsĪs you think about implementing exit tickets in your class, here are some considerations and general suggestions. In either case, whenever you are responding to student feedback, it can be helpful to spend some time thinking about how you want to interpret and prioritize student comments. If you are looking for more general information about students’ experience in your course as a whole, you might consider gathering mid-semester feedback. The primary benefit of an exit ticket is to collect information about a particular class period. Or, you might find it more helpful to ask an open-ended question once a month that asks students to surface lingering questions or reflect on their learning in a particular class session. For example, you may find it useful to ask a different multiple choice question at the end of each class in order to check student understanding of new material. The content of an exit ticket, and how frequently you ask students to submit one, depends on your course and your learning goals.
This resource provides an overview of key considerations when using exit tickets in your class, categories of exit tickets with example questions, and options for collecting exit tickets. An exit ticket is a brief activity completed at the end of class that can serve to gauge student learning, improve student metacognition, and provide some targeted feedback about students’ experience in the class period.The cycle of collecting an exit ticket, acting on it, and then collecting another one, helps keep communication between you and your students honest and open, which can increase student engagement, learning, and sense of belonging in the course.
