UCET 2015

Have you used Plickers? Do you Kahoot? Have you scanned a QR Code? During this presentation, participants will learn a few quick formative assessments and reviewing methods to do with 1 device in the class or up to a classroom full of devices. Students feel like they are “playing a game” not reviewing or being assessed. Bring your Apple IOS or Android device to see how these programs and apps can be used to enhance and engage students in your classroom. http://itselementarymrswatson.blogspot.com/p/ucet.html

If you ever feel overwhelmed trying to understand what your students are understanding and how you can best help them, help is available through recent online tools. Combining the resources of MasteryConnect, UTIPS, and simple spreadsheet use can help you cut through the clutter and direct your instruction. Whether you are brand new to these tools or an expert, join our discussion on how we can focus our time on helping push our students to more efficient learning.
