Students submit responses by answering multiple-choice questions, drawing, or typing, and teachers can send back detailed feedback. The dashboard offers great at-a-glance progress tracking.

Use Formative as your go-to tool for capturing students' responses in class or following at-home assignments. Start with the simple tutorial and experiment with the pre-made assignments to consider what might work best for your classroom. Make short multiple-choice questions to use as bell ringers or exit tickets to start or end your lesson.

Great for secondary teachers who want to upload their maps/formulas...

Lets teachers immediately gauge student learning, instantly respond, or give students instant access to peer ideas.

You can create quizzes in Microsoft Excel using a template or import quizzes shared by a colleague in Socrative.

Once a quiz is created, you can then administer it at a controlled pace or allow students to go at their own pace.

EdPuzzle is one of my favorite tools. It gives teachers a set of tools to crop an existing online video to just the moments needed for a specific teaching purpose. Teachers can also customize the cropped video with voice-overs, audio comments, as well as embedded assessment questions. Crop any YouTube video. Download the EdPuzzle extension in Chrome and the EdPuzzle button will be nestled under every YouTube video you view. It's a great reminder.

Fast, right-or-wrong feedback is provided on kids' devices and the class screen. The multiple-choice quizzes may tend to favor memorization, but having kids create Kahoots allows for higher-order learning.

Kahoot! is one of the rare, great tools that you can learn about today and actually use tomorrow as a go-to formative assessment

Quizlet Live makes it possible for students to participate in a competitive vocabulary review game against their classmates from any device. What makes Quizlet Live unique is that students compete on randomly assigned teams of three or four students. Even better: The correct answer for each question asked during the game appears on only ONE group member’s screen. The result: When a question is asked, teams need to first figure out what the correct answer is and then figure out which partner has the correct answer on their screen.

Quizizz is an assessment tool that can be used as an in-class quiz game or assigned for homework for students to complete on their own. The reports make it easy to use quiz results to inform instruction. The teacher can see how students performed on each question and use that information to figure out what needs to be retaught or readdressed as well as which students might need some individual or small group reinforcement.
