Try:\u00a0 ‘Plickers’<\/a> – The very low tech, high tech version of an SRS. All you need is some downloadable class cards and one smartphone. The students hold their cards up based on their answer (A, B, C, D), the teacher scans the cards from anywhere in the classroom using a smartphone, tablet or ipad, or even the gym, and the responses are automatically entered. The class can view a graph of responses if you connect your computer to a projector and you can easily see who has and hasn’t entered a response.<\/p>\n

1. Scoresheet<\/b>: Earlier this year, we announced Scoresheet, a fantastic way to review your students\u2019 results over multiple questions. Use it to spot learning trends with students, identify questions to review from a unit, or even get grading done faster. Want all of the details? Read more\u2026<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n

\n2. Individual Student Reports<\/b>: On the left panel of Scoresheet, you can now easily print individual student reports or save them as a PDF. The first sheet provides an overall class average and lists the 3 most commonly missed questions for you to save for your records, while the remaining pages contain individual student reports including the question and answer choice selected.<\/span><\/div>\n

Upcoming Features<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
    \n
  1. Grouped Plickers Questions<\/b>: We\u2019re currently working on a way to let you group your Plickers questions together. You\u2019ll be able to title your question group, add a description, and add tags. This is an exciting preliminary step for SHARING, which we\u2019ll be working on after this! Thank you for all your helpful comments and votes for this feature. We\u2019ll keep you posted on our progress! <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Webinars and tutorials<\/b>: Many of you reached out during and after ISTE to ask about some of our sessions on how to write high-quality multiple-choice questions, how to use Plickers to spark critical thinking, and how to use Plickers for groups and games. If you\u2019re interested in any of these or any other topics, please reply to this email and let us know! We\u2019ll be prepping a few key tutorials for fall. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
