| Reflection Technology applications can provide many options for student assessment. An activity that incorporates several assessments is the Gas Consumption artifact. The mathematical calculatons and graphing allows for evaluation of the collected data. Critical thinking skills are assessed by the conjectures and predictions made. Other teachers could use this artifact to increase student learning with technology use that would improve instructional practice. A second assessment artifact is the Excel Gradebook I created to calculate marking period grades. This illustrates proficiency with Excel while eliminating tedious calculations to assess students. Sharing this grradebook with colleagues would guide teachers to use this technology resource to analyze student data. Most importantly is the amount of time saved and the accuracy of the grades. Evaluation methods for student technology use can be in several different forms. An interactive web-site artifact that measure algebra skills would be a tradtional assessment while using the World Wide Web. A rubric for grading projects would evaluate use of Microsoft Office software used in the completion of a Population Project rubric. Proficiency with use of appropriate Internet sites and rubric creation for alternative assessment are demonstrated with these artifacts. |
