MiniTeste: uma ferramenta ágil para aplicação de avaliações personalizadas

Abstract

Methodologies for active learning can profit from the use of technology. In special contexts, such as those of large classes, the help of technological resources is critical. In this paper, we present the MiniTeste tool for creation, management and application of individualized single-question assessments that can be printed or accessed by mobile devices. We discuss how its features contribute to assessment practices based on the recurrent use of key conceptual questions, allowing for realtime adjustments of the pedagogical strategies according to classroom performance. The software was aimed at supporting peer instruction and flipped classroom methodologies in the Brazilian context, but it can also work on other approaches
