#3GoodThings (student feedback on the midterm exam I gave using blue books, aka going old school!)
1. The students liked using a pen -- they felt more connected to what they were saying -- despite finding it harder than using a computer.
2. The students were more careful w/the words they used. B/c they didn't want to have a lot of scratched-out marks on the page & b/c they couldn't edit like on a computer, they chose words w/greater care.
3. They needed more time.
