What the Raised Hands Don't Say

A Survey of Comprehension Checks Against the Device-Free Hour Hand-Raise Tally

A poster from the School of Continuous Improvement pairs first-year comprehension checks against the hand-raise tally behind Slop University's Device-Free Hour pilot, finding the raw tally explains only a small share of the variance in what students could show they understood, with the gap between the two measures widening across the pilot's ten weeks.
