Moduel+5+Reflection

//** Reflection Prompt: # 5 **// How has technology impacted or changed your classroom assessment and evaluation? Has your data collection methodology changed with technology? If technology has not impacted your assessment and evaluation, what would you like to change? Discuss technology and your own productivity and professional practice.


 * __Description: __** In this module we had to read and understand chapter 4 and 5 of our Technology Facilitation and Leadership Book. We should also look at resources on SpringBoard.


 * __Impact: __** Technology has impacted my classroom assessment in many ways. The Students complete reading, phonics, and math assessments on the computer. I usually have the students do their state reports on Microsoft Word. I also have the students do Earobics, Aimsweb, First in Math and Accelerated Reader so I could see what they are struggling with. The achievement project is the authentic assessment given at the end of the unit. Technology also helps to see data more clearly. I use excel to create graphs from my students results from quizzes and tests. That way the students can see their improvement or what they need to work on.


 * __Intent: __** I read on the discussion board about Google Docs as an evaluation assessment. With Google Docs I can learned I could create my own quizzes and or worksheets and then can create graphs to analyze the data and I can focus on my students' weaknesses.
