KWLA (Know, Want to Know, Learned, and Apply): Using a KWLA strategy/worksheet prior to an assessment (like a final exam) in class can help instructors (and students) see what students already “know” about a topic and what they “want to know”/really need to study. After participating in your class/review session, the KWLA can help instructors assess what students have “learned” and if they are able to successfully “apply” the information. For a fillable KWLA worksheet that can be used in your classes, check out the “AVID Resources” page available through the Resources’ tab in D2L.
