5 Minute Peer Writing Activity Study
This study, led by Dr. Andrew Richards and assisted by Zachary Hall, examines a new
active learning instrument, the 5 Minute Peer Writing Activity (5MPWA). The study
endeavors to provide an in-depth analysis of the reception of this novel classroom
assessment technique by comparing it to the well-established Minute Paper from the
perspectives of both students and instructors. For students, we aim to evaluate the
reception of the 5MPWA by measuring its impact on academic performance, levels of
engagement, and overall satisfaction. Instructors' perspectives are equally integral
to this study. We will gauge their reception of the 5MPWA based on their engagement
with the technique, satisfaction with its application, and their likelihood of adopting
the 5MPWA in their own teaching practices. This aspect of the research will provide
valuable information on the potential for wider implementation of this active learning
strategy within the educational community.
