Be The Examiner!!!

Graham Prior

This is an excellent little teaching and learning strategy that has many different tangents to it. Be The Examiner puts students in the shoes of an examiner and can involve students doing the following:At the end of the lesson, writing an exam question on the topic they have just studied, handing it in and then answering it at the start of the next lesson (making this a plenary/ starter partnrship!)Students creating a mark scheme for a question they have written, or, writing a mark scheme for other students questionsWriting a mark scheme for an actual exam questionStudents writing questions based on the topic and swapping them with other students and answering their questions Be The Examiner is also perfect for differentiation by task as the teacher can ask students to write different types of question or ask students to write mark schemes for different exam questions
