Techno Style- Digital Formative Assessment
This class was taught by one of our district coaches, Cathy Hill. She shared how to give quizzes online and have a report sent to you on how each student performed.
See this video on how to use Flubaroo with Google Forms to make grading quizzes/assessments much quicker!

Differentiated Instruction through Social Media
Questions: If you have any questions about differentiating for your students that you would like to ask him, you may contact him by Twitter (@JMcCarthyEdS). His website, Opening Paths (http://openingpaths.org/) is a resource for many on improving student achievement through better pedagogy and instructional practices.
His class that I took on Differentiated Instruction was helpful because he shared about the following:
1. using EdPuzzle, which is a program that let's you upload a video and ask questions during the video to see how the students are understanding what they are watching.
2. using http://www.bgfl.org/virtualdice for reviewing key vocabulary words,
3. using RAFTS to help understand themes in writing,
Here's a picture.
4. A resource page on the different Ways to use social media and how to differentiate in your classroom. This was my most valuable take-away from the class!
