How it works
The Exit Ticket workflow, ready out of the box
MentorSparks creates a default two-prompt flow so teachers can launch quickly and still customize when needed.
2. One Thing Prompt
Students submit one open response to "What is one thing you still have a question about?"
- Captures misunderstandings in student language
- Works well for anonymous responses
- Gives teachers practical reteach signals
3. Automatic Summary
MentorSparks visualizes both the confidence split and text trends instantly.
- Traffic-light chart for class confidence distribution
- Word cloud or response list for open text patterns
- Ready to discuss before students leave
