Every online tool is a bit different. Decide on the purpose of your assessment and then pick an appropriate website tool. If you are looking for a way to quiz students in groups or as a class, Plickers, Kahoot!, or Socrative are all great options. If you want to make online quizzes for students and receive instant feedback or grades, I recommend Class Marker. One unique feature in Class Marker is the ability to ask a question in the form of a video. This would be great for spelling tests or younger students. Google Forms is also a great way to quiz students, and it can be integrated in the Google Classroom very easily.
The online assessment tool I became familiar with this week is Survey Monkey. Surprisingly, I had never used it before. As a librarian, I want to be able to easily receive feedback from teachers and students so that I know exactly how I can support them in the classroom. Survey Monkey is a great way to do this. Check out my survey on Technology.
Then come back and leave a comment on what you think. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Tara,
ReplyDeleteNice Post!
Your blog shares multiple and authentic online testing strategies. These examinations are automated system of evaluation and a quick way of quizzing students knowledge in the beginning of a lesson. I can so see how this assessment tool can be so useful as a librarian.
I enjoyed reading your blog...
This is great information! I love using Plickers and Kahoot! These are even useful in staff development!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to learn more about Class Marker. Thanks for introducing me to a new tech tool! :)
Tara,
ReplyDeleteI love using Survey Monkey to gather information. Also, I love the reports and bar graphs that lvan be generated to help see the results. I found them to be easily read and usable. I've never used Class Marker, but it sounds like I need to check it out!
