My next few tech tips will be focused on the topic of assessment tools. Correcting and analyzing assessment data can be very time consuming. Over the few weeks I am going to share a few technology tools that will help save you time and seamlessly organize your data for you. I will give some highlights of each tool, but please contact me if you want to learn more about any of the tools.
Google Forms:
Our district uses Microsoft 365, but Google forms (free) is
still a tool from Google that I use regularly.
This summer they have added many new features, but one of the most
significant is the video question option.
I like Google forms due to its simplicity, ability to self-correct, and
data organization.
Check out this great
link which shows how Google forms can be used to create self-grading
quizzes. This would be a great
alternative to scantron cards and it is much easier to analyze the
results. Google also provides a video
question option along with a way to insert
images into questions as well. The
forms are easily printable using the printer
friendly format for those who can’t complete them online.
Application:
Google forms collect multiple choice, rating scales,
essays, and short answer questions.
Depending on the question type it will also organize the data and put it
in a graph for you to easily analyze.
This would be a great tool to use when you are creating and
analyzing data from your common formative assessments or summative
assessments. You can even
collaborate with others to create a form and analyze the results. Please contact me if you are interested in
trying this tool in your classroom.
