Assignment Help–Exploring digital assessment tools
Foster a culture where students take ownership of their learning goals and outcomes in both independent and group settings.
Explore digital assessment tools and choose an appropriate one for your students, resources, and content.
Develop a digital assessment of a learning outcome.
Administer the assessment to your students and create a report.
Create a specific plan to use the data from the assessment to differentiate subsequent learning experiences
Provide alternative ways for students to demonstrate competency and reflect on their learning using technology.
The purpose of this project is to introduce you to the technologies available to help you develop digital assessments. Just as digital lessons facilitate differentiated instruction, digital assessments can be tailored to various instructional levels or pacing. With live results available with many digital assessments, we can quickly use the results to differentiate learning based on readiness or mastery.
In this project, you will create a digital assessment that you can use to measure your students’ progress toward learning outcome during a lesson. (The course in the Technology Specialist Endorsement sequence, Assessing and Improving Student Achievement with Technology, will delve into all aspects of digital assessments, but here we focus on a formative assessment.)
There are dozens of apps on the market; most are free or have free trials.Your choice of app will depend on the technology available to you, as well as the purpose of the assessment. Explore EDpuzzle (Links to an external site.), PlayPosit (Links to an external site.) (formerly eduCanon), Google Forms (Links to an external site.), Socrative (Links to an external site.), GoFormative (Links to an external site.), and choose one. If your students don’t have devices, but you have a smartphone, try Plickers (Links to an external site.).
Samples and tutorials are available on each tool’s website, and more tutorial help can be found in Reading & Resources. Click here (Links to an external site.)to see a sample of a video/assessment on Piaget’s formal operations that I created using EDpuzzle.
I am open to the use of other tools, provided you can get data for individual students from it and I can access/take it as a student. Contact me directly and we’ll discuss the possibilities.
