Formative

"Formative is a free, web-based student-response and assessment tool for the flipped, BYOD, or 1-to-1 classroom. After a detailed tutorial, teachers can upload or create assignments that let students type, enter numbers, draw (with a mouse or their finger, depending on the device), upload an image, or answer multiple-choice questions. Teachers can create classes (manually or by filling out a template spreadsheet) and then distribute their assignments to students through classes (including Google Classroom) or via an access code. Students can use accounts (which allows teachers to track their progress over time) or choose to respond without logging in. Teachers can watch their students' responses arrive in real time via the teacher dashboard, and teachers can send back grades (manually our automatically) and also send longer narrative responses in reply."

Socrative

"Socrative is a simple, dynamic online student-response system (via website or Chrome app) that can help teachers spark conversation and learning through user-created polls and quizzes. Teachers direct students to a web address where they input a code to log their answers. Via single-response polling, students' answers register immediately on the teacher's computer as the students submit their responses on almost any device. Properly implemented, Socrative is a formative assessment tool that allows teachers to create quizzes, quick questions, and exit slips that allow for multiple-choice, true/false, and one-sentence responses that can be graded with feedback for each student. In addition to those basic assessment strategies, students can team up to play Space Race, a collaborative activity that allows student teams to answer questions as quickly as they can; the teacher can access real-time results of this race as well as determine student teams. Teachers can also access data online and print through an Excel sheet or email for further planning."

Quizizz

"Quizizz is a game show-style quiz tool similar to Kahoot!, Quizalize, and Quizlet. It has both a web-based version as well as iOS, Android, and Chrome apps for students. There's also notable integration with Edmodo, Google Classroom, and Remind. There's no question, however, that Quizizz is heavily influenced by Kahoot! and aims to be even easier-to-use and more quirky, and on those fronts it succeeds. Teachers create an account, but for students it's optional. Students access a quiz on their device or computer using an access code, and they can see both questions and answers on their screen. There's a searchable database of hundreds of quizzes, and teachers can use those or edit them to meet their needs. When creating their own quizzes, teachers can add images as well as customize the feedback students see after each question on the quiz. Feedback comes in the form of memes (either premade or custom), which display bassed on right or wrong answers.

Students can take the quizzes all together competitively as a class (and see classmates' progress), or teachers can assign the quiz as homework and have students complete it on their own time. The quiz advances on its own as students answer."

Kahoot!

"Kahoot, a free student-response tool for all platforms, allows teachers to run game-like multiple-choice answer quizzes in real time. Teachers (as well as students) can either create their own quizzes or find, use, and/or remix public quizzes. Questions, along with answer choices, are projected onto a classroom screen while students submit responses using a personal (likely mobile) device. Questions and polls can contain images and video to help further appeal to all learners. Students' devices display color and symbol choices only; the actual answers must be viewed on the classroom screen. The energized, game-like atmosphere comes from the use of bright colors and suspenseful music. Liveliness in the game or quiz escalates as updated ranks appear on the class scoreboard after each question; personal points data is sent to each device. The Team Mode mixes things up and allows groups of students to cooperate with each other and compete against other teams."
