Question bank
Anonymous mid-semester questions for a quiet class
Six open questions a lecturer can use in an anonymous mid-semester check when a class is quiet. They are written to expose pluralistic ignorance, where each student thinks they alone are confused. The third question asks students to compare themselves with peers, which shows the gap directly. Koji can run them as short AI-moderated interviews that ask a follow-up when an answer is vague.
