Providing Students Feedback in Desmos

 

I do group work often with my students and they want to know whether they are right or wrong.  You can code desmos to tell them.  This is helpful for several reasons. First, it provides students with instant feedback. Second, they can use that feedback to ask for help.  If you know of a common error you can add that; for example, when we do our fractions activity, I remind them to simplify in the incorrect feedback.  Third, students who are solving the correctly will know and be able to help their group.  Here’s a quick video on how to code it. After I code the first slide, I will code/paste the coding into the others and just update the number so that it can be done quickly.
