Prepare students to expect some teacher interaction in the classroom or clinical setting so that it
is not viewed as a student deficiency
Capitalize on situations where neither student or faculty have an answer through on-the-spot use
of resources for mutual learning
Feedback Cite a standard, for example, page in textbook, reference to class notes, so the student can use
it to supplement or extend knowledge
Require that the student self-grade an assignment and compare it to the grading rubric so as to

are not required to elicit the same level of performance
Support use of student-made personal note cards or commercial pocket-type summaries as
temporary scaffolds of learning
Questioning Use a variety of questions from faculty and students themselves to assess where assistance in
learning is needed
Promote metacognition by asking students to share new clinical experiences from which
they learned that might also help others learn
Meet promptly with students with low test scores to identify where knowledge is insufficient so
that erroneous understanding is not carried to clinical practice
Provide students with a supervised review of all unit exams prior to the final exam to help them
develop a study plan
Cognitive structuring Vary concept map purposes, styles, and directions to explore student knowledge and thinking as
assessments for assistance
