For this next assignment, we had to use online software to make a test and answer key, rubric, and bookmark on a subject we will be teaching in the future. I chose to use First grade hibernation as my subject. This was extremely beneficial because this is the same subject that I will be using for a final lesson I will be teaching in another class. I will be able to use the tools from this project for that lesson at the end of the semester. The fact that I am already using this software now proves that I will definitely be able to use it when I have my own class. The software programs themselves are extremely easy to navigate and use. It takes barely any time to come up with a simply made, great looking result. I am definitely a fan of the software we used for this project, especially the test and rubric programs. I loved how the test can be made online, then taken by the students and graded for you through the answer key you made. I also was very impressed that you could choose a content area and criteria for the rubric and they would fill in the rest of the chart for you. I like how professional it looks because the template is already there at your disposal. As of now, I haven’t used the bookmark software for much, but I know that one day it will be a very beneficial way for my students to get more exposure to a new topic or study for a test.
You can find the links to my final web tools assignments listed below.
Also found this extremely easy to use and beneficial is looking to make a fast test. This could be something beneficial if you work at a school that allows you to make your own test but a lot of schools are changing the policies and i question how much longer a teacher is going to be allowed to even do so.
