Post 11

Focus Question: How can teachers use student participation systems as effective assessment methods?
One tool I have used is when a teacher post a question on the board us students are placed into groups and we have a game as to who can answer the question the fastest and correct and how we answer is by using our clickers that we used. Participation is a great way for students to get involved and also to have them repeat what they need to know and what they can learn. Open-ended questions is a great way to get them involved as well.

Also when the students have a presentation and they would like to get the other students opinion. Here is an simple example I created that can give you an idea as to what you can create with the survey monkey, Addition and Subtraction.

Summary:  As gearing toward the end of the semester we are working towards our own e-portfolio and this chapter helps get the students involved in the evaluations and assessing their work in the class. Our portfolio gathers all of our work that we have created throughout this class and we can go and edit what we please and see what we have created throughout the whole semester.  And the chapter goes into detail about how students can do peer evaluation, it talks about how we can use technology such as e-portfolios, presentations and publications of personal and student assessment. This can help students keep track of their own grades and work on what they have created.  We use En grade and that helps us keep track as to where we are in the class and what we need to work on.

  1. Nice job with creating your own Survey Monkey poll! :) The downside to the free version is that it is limited to factors that you would probably want as a classroom teacher....still, it is a great 'go to' tool for effective use.
