Digital formative assessment tools
Digital formative assessment tools were presented that can be used to aid formative assessment in the classroom. Formative assessment is used to monitor student progress and provide feedback, rather than determine grades. A dozen free digital tools were showcased, including Kahoot!, Google Forms, Poll Everywhere, and Socrative. General advice was provided around student privacy and tool selection based on factors like available devices, time requirements, and desired activity type.
