Packback is a pedagogy partner that uses technology as a “means to an end” to shorten feedback loops for students and instructors, improve writing and critical thinking skills, and cultivate student-centered, trust-based educational learning environments.
Packback places a focus on connecting to the unique purpose that motivates each student. Through an inquiry-based approach, Packback prompts students to ask questions that inspire them about the course material. The process of formulating questions is core to the process of self-motivated learning and metacognition.
