  1. Descriptive statistics of the quantitative measure of student learning gains from multiple-choice (MC) question #1 that asked students to identify monitoring techniques. Time (min) is the amount of time each class spent on the activity; N is the number of participants who gave permission for data to be used and completed both pre- MMM and post- MMM surveys; Class Total N is the total number of students enrolled in the class. Scoring is described in the text. Pre- MMM mean, Post- MMM mean and SD columns report the before and after scores for the MC question. Minimum score = −8, Maximum score = 4.
