Formative - 1 views

shared by mcsalito on 26 Feb 16 - No Cached
  •  
    A platform for real-time formative assessments + a FREE next-generation student response system.
  •  
    Short Description: Formative is a free, online tool which allows teachers to create a variety of assessments, collect data, and provide feedback to students in real time. In setting up an assessment, teachers may create their own material or upload documents, images, and YouTube videos (to name a few) to which they may add questions. Such questions can include multiple choice selections, True/False, short responses, and "Show Your Work", the latter two requiring manual grading/correction. After all responses are submitted, the teacher may then receive a summary of class scores and export that data to a spreadsheet. Furthermore, the feature of tagging certain skill sets to an assessment enables a teacher to track each student's progress with a particular subject. Examples of Uses: Formative can be used for nearly any subject or topic. Throughout a unit, a teacher could create multiple assessments to evaluate their class's understanding of the material. In a Social Studies unit on the Founding Fathers for instance, a teacher could upload photos of the different Founding Fathers and ask for an identification and brief description. For another question, they could upload a map of the United States and ask students to manually draw in where certain historical events took place. Also, the teacher could upload portions of the Declaration of Independence and/or the Constitution and have students respond to questions posed regarding those documents.

Seesaw - 2 views

shared by mcsalito on 16 Feb 18 - No Cached
  •  
    Short Description: Seesaw is an educational tool that allows teachers to maintain a digital portfolio of student work, as well as deliver differentiated assignments to specific students. Additionally, the teachers can provide feedback on submitted work and students can submit their work/assignments with text or video comments (typically reflections). The tool also comes with the feature of enabling the sharing of these portfolios with parents of the students. With teacher monitoring and approval, parents can gain access to their child's work to track academic progress, view the teacher's feedback, and contribute commentary of their own to the submissions. Examples of Uses: Teachers can use Seesaw to collect digital files throughout the school year as opposed to a pile of papers. In this sense, Seesaw is effective for both organization and communication. By sharing a student's digital portfolio with the parents, this serves as an effective way to preemptively prevent the need for parent-teacher conferences. Through Seesaw, parents are able to monitor what has been submitted and can also view what the teacher has evaluated or commented upon. In doing so, they can easily determine where their child needs improvement or support. This knowledge and method of communication can lend itself to early solutions before a deficient or underachieving academic situation develops.

SymbalooEDU: Social Bookmarking Tool - 1 views

  •  
    Short Description: Symbaloo is a social bookmarking tool through which teachers can share their favorite web resources. In addition to organizing homework, lesson plans, and administrative paperwork all in one place (among other features), Symbaloo allows teachers to create "webmixes" consisting of links and sources for particular subjects and/or topics. For students, it's a useful tool for gathering content for research and maintaining that content in one common area, rather than searching all over the Web. Examples of Uses: Teachers can use Symbaloo to organize websites and databases which are reliable and trustworthy for their students. Teachers can post links to sources of information which they deem credible and useful, thus saving time and energy for their students. Teachers can also review the websites that their students find and share to their own personalized learning spaces.

TodaysMeet - Give everyone a voice - 2 views

  •  
    Make managing your digital classroom even easier with TodaysMeet Teacher Tools, a toolbox just for teachers.
  •  
    Lauren MacDonald Tool Name: TodaysMeet https://todaysmeet.com Short Description: TodaysMeet is a backchannel virtual classroom tool used for communication and collaboration between students that occurs during a lesson, when students are at home, or even with students from other schools. TodaysMeet allows for the elimination of off topic comments and helps keep the classroom as a whole focused. Also, this tool allows for all students' voices to be heard and opens the conversation up for everyone to effectively collaborate. What is extremely helpful for students is that they can print out the conversations on TodaysMeet or re-enter the classroom while at home to refer to notes, instructions, or help on homework. Examples of Uses: Students can access the virtual classroom on TodaysMeet anywhere and continue the conversation with classmates and teachers even after the lesson has ended. This is extremely helpful for teachers when they come across more challenging concepts or units in the curriculum because students can use each other to bounce ideas and questions off of rather than the teacher taking a whole class period to answer multiple questions from confused students.

Digital Passport by Common Sense Media | Digital Passport - 0 views

  •  
    Digital Passport is a great way to teach digital citizenship in 3rd through 6th-grade classrooms. It provides a foundation for appropriate and safe online behavior by offering fun and interactive lessons and meets Common Core and ISTE Nets Standards. Students can engage in videos, games, and quizzes about cyber-bullying, respect, digital literacy, and many other topics to promote digital citizenship. The site offers educator materials that can be utilized by simply registering for a login and password. Both students and teachers can access Digital Passport on computers, tablets, or phones in school and at home. The application can be accessed directly through the website or downloaded. One way to implement this tool in lessons is to allow students to have the opportunity to work on Chrome books or in a lab. Students can be assigned quizzes through the teacher dashboard. Once students get through the lessons, they earn badges and a "Certificate of Achievement," which allows for positive reinforcement. Teachers can monitor student progress during the activity and print reports to share with each student, their parents, and administrators. During lessons, students can be assigned to work individually on a device or as a class on a smart board, which allows for an exciting and innovative way to learn about digital citizenship.
