It's almost Middle Ages webquest time at BMS. Like every year, I was reflecting on how to make changes to the automatous mastery learning unit (Click this link to see the many posts about this unit). Travis and I began to discuss how it could change. I wanted a different response to the computer side chat. Mike and I had the students list three to five facts they learned, then tell us two questions they had. I really like the questions students asked, but I wanted students to get more from the chats...So I remember people using google forms to make quizzes. I tweeted out a question and Mike was quick to get us to Flubaroo. I had heard of it, but never saw a need for it until now.
So, Travis took on the task of learning how to use it and email students notes, grades and the questions they had. His tutorial is below. I must admit it takes a few times to get it down, but once you do it has amazing possibilities for classroom use and formative assessment. These forms are basic information presented in the chat. They are not a quiz...more of a listening task with hope students will learn more from some guiding questions as they listen.
Below the tutorial is a test example (will not be used with kids as we have already added other sections-- copies for each school, last question asking for questions--its not graded, and putting them in order of that the chat presents them), If you take it you should get an email with in a few minutes with feedback--see images below. Let us know your thoughts on Flubaroo or how you use it.
Cheers, Garth
