The teacher can quickly gauge students understanding during a lesson by using the thumbs up, thumbs down assessment. When the teacher is going over something he/she can ask students to express their understanding of the concept by giving a thumbs up hand signal. If the students don't understand they should give a thumbs down hand signal. If students understand some but still have some questions, they should hold their thumbs in the middle of up and down.  https://cms.azed.gov/home/GetDocumentFile?id=5887e207aadebe16205a25dd
