Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) Print Version What Are CATs? Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) are generally simple, non-graded, anonymous, in-class activities designed to give you and your students useful feedback on the teaching-learning process as it is happening. Examples of CATs include the following. The Background Knowledge Probe is a short, simple questionnaire given to students at the start of a course, or before the introduction of a new unit, lesson or topic. Why Should I Use CATs? CATs can be used to improve the teaching and learning that occurs in a class. Provide just-in-time feedback about the teaching-learning processProvide information about student learning with less work than traditional assignments (tests, papers, etc.)Encourage the view that teaching is an ongoing process of inquiry, experimentation, and reflectionHelp students become better monitors of their own learningHelp students feel less anonymous, even in large coursesProvide concrete evidence that the instructor cares about learning
