Confidence Rating | IRIS Connect Tech Guide

In this IRIS Connect Tech Guide, we explore how to promote metacognition and uncover hidden misconceptions using confidence ratings. Ask students to rate how confident they feel about their understanding, using a scale such as 1 to 5 fingers, coloured cards or digital polls. This gives you a clearer picture of not just what students know, but how sure they are.

What it is:
Ask students to rate how confident they feel about their understanding on a scale (e.g. 1–5 fingers, coloured cards or digital polls).

Desired effect:
This strategy promotes metacognition and helps you gauge not just correctness, but how sure students feel, highlighting hidden misconceptions or overconfidence.

Problems it helps solve:

“Students are too reliant on the teacher.”

“Students do not share when they don’t understand.”

“Students sometimes think they know the answer when they don’t.”
