Formative Assessment in the Cloud
Session Description:
Participants will learn how to use the web-based and mobile sites like Infuse Learning, Socrative, Poll Everywhere, and Remind101 to support formative assessment. "In the age of assessment and accountability, teachers use assessments to look beyond the score or grade that is assigned to the student’s performance on the test. The purpose of assessment is to inform the teacher with the instructional needs and accomplishments of his/her individual students and class." (Formative Assessment - Salient 5) By using web-based and mobile sites like Socrative and Poll Everywhere, teachers can quickly and efficiently monitor student progress in order to adjust instruction based on the assessed needs of students. Remind 101 allows teachers to adjust assignments, provide reminders and study tips to students safely via text messaging.
