Here are some ways you could improve your understanding of determiners:
- Review examples of sentences using different types of determiners (articles, demonstratives, possessives, etc.) and practice identifying the determiner in each sentence.
- Create your own examples using different determiners to demonstrate your understanding.
- Test your knowledge by covering up the determiners in example sentences and trying to identify which type is being used based on context clues.
- Refer back to the definitions and key differences between determiner types if you get any examples wrong - focus on areas you're still unclear on.
- Discuss determiners with a study partner and quiz each other on examples. Explaining concepts to someone else can help solid

Revisit the first outcome and use the polling function to allow students to privately self-assess
You may feel that the students do not need privacy to self-assess and in this instance, the chat box may be used
Polling must be used until you can fully assess their confidence to use the chat box and express honesty
If students self-assess as a 4/5, ensure that you are fully confident in their assessment
Ask questions
Ask for examples
Students to ask each other questions
If a few students self-assesses as a 3, but others as a 4/5, discretely ask the higher ones to give examples and to explain their achievement/understanding
If all students are a 3 or below, do not move on. Move to a blank page at the end of the presentation and use as a whiteboard to further explain
If students are ½, go back to the beginning
Always ask students what the gaps are and help them to identify these in order to promote metacognition
