ABSTRACT
A typical notebook quiz might ask students to quote from a handout they were given in class and were supposed to keep or from notes on projects and re ports given by classmates. It might also have them translate a vocabulary word discussed in class, ask or answer a question as practiced in class, give examples of a concept (grammar or cultural) practiced in class,or simply give the answer to a specific question from a homework assignment, quiz or test that was checked or reviewed in class (a good way to check that a student corrected his or her paper as you went over the correct answers in class). Anything a student should have in notes or on a paper he or she should have kept would be mate rial for a brief quiz. The ''brief" timed aspect of the quiz also is to encourage the student to organize the notebook. If a student cannot find the material easily, then it is of little value to the student, as too much time would be spent search ing for information.
