.Formative assessments allow for a quick snapshot of student learning in class. It’s an ongoing process that can happen anytime during a lesson regardless of content area. We use the data collected through formative assessments as a feedback system between student learning and teacher instruction. Here are 9 of my favorite free tech tools that will fit seamlessly into your lesson to gather data and provide instant feedback for your students.
1- Play a Game: ‘Kahoot! Create a multiple choice game or search and edit games made by others. Questions appear on a shared screen and you answer on your own device. Quizlet Live: After creating your vocabulary list, students will be automatically placed into teams. A definition will appear for one of your terms, and only one of the members will have the correct term on their screen. Students race to get 11 correct unbroken and can see the results in real time. Quizizz : Very similar to Kahoot, but provides more detailed and student-level data. 2. Create a Quiz, Question, or Poll: Socrative: With Socrative you can initiate formative assessments through quizzes, quick question polls, exit tickets and space races all with their Socrative Teacher app. Socrative will instantly grade, aggregate and provide visuals of results. Go Formative: Formative assignments, assessments and homework automatically display student work as-it-happens and keep track of student growth to standards.Create a quiz or upload a document and add places for students to respond. Students can draw on their device, type answers, or use a variety of methods all updated live on your screen as students enter their answer. Nearpod: The Nearpod platform enables teachers to create an interactive presentation with their slides. They can insert interactive slides for collaboration, real-time assessment, or demonstration of student work. Teacher's can share student responses to questions and collect data in the meantime. 3-Providing Students with a digital voice: Verso: Students download the app and input their responses to the assignment. They can then post their comments and respond to the comments of others. The teacher can group responses and check engagement levels as well as keep student responses anonymous. Flipgrid: Students can record video responses to a class question as well as post comments and respond to the comments of others. Teacher's can provide feedback to responses directly from the app. Todaysmeet: This online collaboration tool allows educators to create a “room” in which students can share ideas, answers, and thoughts to lectures and lessons. Educators can view student responses in real time for evidence of learning. Google Classroom: Create a question and allow students to respond/reply and post answers in real-time. Comments are closed.
