Methodology of using the resource/ tool |
Socrative is an assessment tool that gives immediate feedback for the classroom. It allows teachers to connect with students as learning happens, by providing fun and effective tools to gauge student understanding in real time. This enables teachers to modify their instruction to drive student learning most effectively. With this tool teachers can create quizzes, surveys, team activities and content, and share them with other teachers. Once you have signed up, you will get a room name: this is the code that you will need to give to your students. You can import quizzes, create quizzes and launch quizzes. When you launch a quiz, you can choose if you want instant feedback for students (question by question), if you want to pace the answers or if you want to open navigation (students can get all the feedback at the end). Students must log in (only name and code, there is no need to register) , using your Classroom code, to start their activity. Teachers can show the answers by hiding the students names or the correct answers, if they want. Finally, they can get a report and download it. To create a quizz you can choose between multiple choice, true/false and short answers. You can add pictures, and provide feedback and more information to the students, for every question. Take notice that for short answers, you will have to write the correct one in all his versions: capital letters, small letters and their different combinations. |
