  1. What are they?

    Exit cards are a quick assessment tool for teachers to help them become more aware of student understanding of concepts taught. Exit cards are written student responses to questions posed at the end of a class or learning activity or at the end of a day. They may be used at any grade level and every subject area.

    How long does this exit card take to complete?

    Exit cards take about five minutes to complete and reveal important information about student understanding.

    When should exit cards be used?

    Exit cards may be used as part of ongoing assessment and may be used in daily routines or lessons as a closure activity.

    How do I choose appropriate questions?

    The questions chosen by the teacher depend on what information or type of response is expected from students. The questions can be varied and target skill development through demonstrations, explanations, understanding, or a reflection of how students feel about their learning success or frustration. Opinions are often requested in exit cards to address personal feelings or perceptions. The questions should be short and only take a few minutes to write (and read) so they become a quick assessment check.

    Students reflect and respond to Exit Card questions.  

    How do I use exit cards?

    Distribute a slip of paper or index card to each student. Students put their name on the card and wait for the teacher to pose the question(s). Students respond to the question(s) and turn in the card before they leave the classroom. It can be used as a pass or ticket out of the classroom.

    What student expectations should be set?

    Students need to know what the exit cards are being used for. Let them know that you want to know how well they understand what is being taught or difficulties they may be having so you can plan to help them. There are no wrong answers but effort is expected. Student sharing of responses could be a model to build from. A mark could be assigned from time to time if effort becomes an issue (evaluation).

    How will exit card information be useful?

    Teachers assess the responses on the exit cards in order to provide differentiated instruction to meet the diverse needs of learners in the classroom.
