I never heard of "fog free" assessments before. I thought this was interesting because as a special education teaching this is something I do all of the time. You look for specific academic needs through various assessments so you provide the specially designed instruction that is necessary to meet the needs of a student with a disability. Fog Free assessments are simple like this. If you click on the link it takes you to another article that explains what they are. The author of that article basically said that these are the kind of assessments where you need to look for the information and the data. (Felicia Ulsh)

I use Youtube playlists all of the time. These are great for lesson openers to catch the interests of the children. It is a great way to differentiate for your visual learners. Actually not only visual but all learners. This is a way to incorporate 21st century media into the classroom. Again, as I mentioned on someone else's comment, students need to learn how to use the technology tool appropriately. I can not stress that enough.
