Checking for Learning

So this year I am not going to do the pre- and post-tests. I know, cue to the shocked faces… I just feel like the results will be skewed. With all the overcrowded classes I have had, I can hardly say the lessons are at the maximum potential. My guess (and from the test I gave last week) I see that the scores will be uncharacteristically low due to the problem with the teaching environment. That said, I am happy to say that I am not too disappointed because I tested all the lessons last year quite thoroughly.
BUT WHAT ABOUT FEEDBACK?
Yes, what about feedback one may wonder.
I am doing a survey at the end of each lesson. I will ask four questions:
​
  1. Is the lesson two short, just right, or too long?
  2. Was the lesson too easy, just right, or too hard?
  3. What are the 3 easiest vocabulary words/phrases?
  4. What are the 3 hardest vocabulary words/phrases?
 
That’s all I got so far. I feel like this structure can be improved. I will let this roll around in my head and hopefully, I can come up with something better. I may be able to find something online or I may just ask one of my language teachers for help too.

    Hi! I'm Samalya. When I'm not running about cramming for school I sit on my laptop and (attempt to) make a curriculum to improve spoken English in rural Sri Lanka!
