![]() by Addy Gottman As a seventh grade math teacher, I am constantly searching for online formative assessments that take very little work on my part, are user friendly, and also provide me with loads of data on student progress. In addition to my wants , the assessment tool also has to be engaging for my students. I have found that Quizizz fits that bill. Quizizz is an online assessment tool and app. It has both a browser based option and student app for the iPad.
My students love Quizizz (I think as much as I do). Students join a game with a code, provide a user name and then the site provides them with a fun avatar. In my classroom, I use my computer and TV to project live results as the entire class works simultaneously on the quiz. Students are given feedback on their progress after they complete each question and then a final ranking at the end of the quiz. Quizizz keeps the students engaged by making it a competition, but it also holds them accountable for getting the answer correct. Scores are based both on accuracy and speed.

By: Jennifer Orton I enlisted a little help with my blog post this week. The Knox County R-I S.W.A.T. (Students Will Advance Technology) team was super excited about the release of iOS 11 and all the new features that were added! During our time together over the past few weeks, they each selected their favorite iOS 11 feature and used the new screen recording tool from the customizable control center to record tips for using the new tool. Take a look at each video below. Then comment... what is your favorite iOS 11 feature and how could you use it in the classroom?
