Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the opinions of future teachers on their experience using Socrative exit tickets in the university classroom. For this purpose, the Socrative program was implemented as a learning tool within the education programs of two large universities in Spain, and a questionnaire was created by adapting instruments from previous research. The results show that the use of exit tickets improves the participants’ reported attention and perceived abilities to reflect on, synthesize and analyze the course content. In addition, the use of Socrative facilitates instructors in identifying the degree of understanding or difficulties of students. © 2021 The Author(s).
