4. Did you learn anything about rubrics? Let me know by answering these questions!
5. Need some ideas for formative assessments during your project? Check these out:
Kahoot! As long as your students have a device with internet access, they can play Kahoot! Set up quizzes with as few or many questions as you'd like. Project your quiz in front of the class. Students go to kahoot.it and enter their room code, then imput their own names. No student login needed. You can also set up surveys and polls.
Socrative: Students need their own device, and also don't need a login since they enter your room code. Launch a quiz, space race (teams), or exit ticket that you've created before class. OR write a question on the board and have students enter their multiple choice, true/false, or short answer response with no up-front work on your part.
GradeCam: Use GradeCam to grade quick 10-question or less quizzes. Students (or you) can scan their completed papers in front of a webcam or your phone and receive immediate feedback. Up to 1000 question answer sheets with paid plan. Zipgrade does this also, but costs for more than a set number of scans.
Plickers: For the school that doesn't have a BYOD policy, or for the class that simply can't handle having the internet at their fingertips. Students have cards to hold up, and a quick scan of the room with the app on the teacher's phone displays and records who's got it and who still needs help. Totally free, unless you feel like purchasing laminated cards from amazon. Here's a quick video of Plickers being used in a 1st grade class.
SeeSaw: Students need a SeeSaw account and will need a code to join your class. From there, you can post links, notes, videos, etc. Students can comment or like. Teachers can assess student posts with skill ratings. If you're interested in a discussion board, SeeSaw can be used to create a class blog.
Don't forget about EDpuzzle and Google Form quizzes!
