This past week I was catching up with one of my friends who is a teacher in Cobb County. She informed me about an app called Plickers. This is a quick way to use formative assessments in the class. Each student has a card that has a unique visual code with four sides to answer a, b, c, or d. The teacher projects a question and the students hold up their card to respond. The teacher uses his or her device to take a picture through the app, and it reports the results to the teacher! Instant feedback! This is a good way to assess reading and comprehension across all content areas. The teacher can decide whether more time should be spent on a topic, problem, or concept before moving on with the class.
