Ten
Occasions to Use Response Cards
Complimentary Tool for Training
and Development
One of the simplest ways to engender thought
and discussion is to ask participants to write a response on a blank index
card. These cards, once written on, can be kept by the writer to ponder
and to stimulate contributions to class-wide discussion. Or the cards
can be collected, shuffled, and distributed to participants (each of whom
then receives a card whose author is unknown). Finally, the cards can
be passed around a group so that each participant can read what others
have written. There are many things you can ask participants to write
on their response cards.
