Digital Age Assessment - Thing10
Last year, near the end of the year, I was able to obtain a set of smart responders. I knew it was going to be a little work to set up my classes, so I only used them in anonymous mode. Um....maybe that was not the right choice. I see many of my teachers using responders to take tests, informal assessments, BRs, all kinds of things. What I love most about using responders is the feedback the teacher can receive. Imagine being able to make adjustments on the fly to meet the students needs. I've been in dozens of situations when I was teaching, and seeing lots of head nods and smiles and I think "WOW! they are getting this! really getting this!" Then, the students bomb the quiz or test! Sound familiar? Well if the teacher is using responders (not in anonymous mode) then he/she can better judge learning. PERFECT!
