I've tried using Kahoots as an exit ticket for my students in my Integrated Math III class. I liked use it because it gave me some instant feedback on how well my class as a whole has learned the material. This makes it really nice for me as the teacher because I don't have a million things to grade and I have a general idea of where everyone is. What I don't like about these types of apps is I have no way to see the students work. Therefore, I don't really know what part of the material they are struggling with. Are they struggling with the algebraic manipulation or do they not know how to set up the problem to begin with? The other problem I run into is the lack of technology access my students have. Not all of my students have access to chrome books or laptops. Also not all of my students have access to smart phones. I think about my Integrated Math 3 class. In that class alone I have 4 kids that are still using flip phones and they also did not purchase a chrome book at the end of the year. This can be frustrating when it comes to trying to implement a tech based formative assessment. I usually deal with this by just making paper copies of the formative and giving it to them. This problem is extending to my summative assessment as well, because it requires them to write up a financial plan. It also requires them to find resources online. I've been requesting time for the computer lab for this class, this ensures that everyone in the class has access to a computer. In the future I think I will try to incorporate google forms as another form of assessment.
