Formative Assessment Tools
If you are like many teachers and are looking for a quick and easy way to use the devices in your classroom or school, Formative Assessment tools can be the answer. All these tools are device agnostic (they work on any device with an internet browser), and are fairly easy to learn. Each tool has it's advantages and disadvantages. Try a couple of them in the next couple weeks to see what you think. Most of these tools can be used in a K-12 environment.
Quizizz - Game-based quiz game
Kahoot - Game-based quiz game
Socrative - More formal formative assessment
GoFormative - Much like Socrative, but offers a couple other types of assessment

Tech Tip - Quiziz
Quiziz
If you are familiar with Kahoot and loved Kahoot, you will LOVE Quiziz! Quiziz follows the same premise as Kahoot, but in a slightly different way. With Kahoot the questions are completed one at a time, meaning the questions do not move on until all answers have been collected, or the timer runs out. With Quiziz, the students can go through the questions at their own pace (with a timer). The cool thing is the teacher can still see real-time data, so it can be used as a formative assessment tool. The other stark difference between Kahoot and Quiziz is that with Quiziz the questions appear on the student screens. Whereas in Kahoot, the question appears on the screen in front, and the student devices are essentially clickers. Quiziz is awesome if your students are getting tired of Kahoot. Give it a try today!

Tech Tip - Kahoot
Kahoot
If you are looking for a way to do fun review in your classroom, pull in a set of devices and play Kahoot with your kids. Kahoot is a great tool for all ages. It is a game-based way to assess. Teachers can either create their own questions, or select a quiz from the many quizzes already created in the public gallery. Kahoot requires no student signup, so playing a game in your class takes very little time. Give it a try during the first couple weeks of school.

Kahoot
Kahoot is another player on the clicker in the classroom field. What sets Kahoot apart from Socrative or Infuse Learning is the game-based approach. Once you create a quiz or survey, students can answer the questions in a game-like manner. Each question is worth 1000 points and the faster you answer the question, the more points you get. Points are then accumulated throughout the quiz and a leader board is developed. It's a pretty neat way to get some great feedback from your students in a fun and interactive way.
