Student Response Systems Resources

     Two examples of Student Response Systems Resources are Socrative and Plickers. Socrative is a great way to engage and assess students on the fly. I love how Socrative can be used for students who are working on their own and students who are collaborating with one another. Another way to assess students on the fly is by using Plickers. Plickers is a great way for teachers to collect formative assessment data on the spot. Plickers is teacher friendly because it does not require students to use their own digital device. Teachers only have to give one “paper clicker” per student.  The students will use the “paper clicker” to answer assessment type questions. This is a very creative way to assess students daily. I can see myself using Plickers regularly in my classroom. I can use Plickers as an exit slip before students leave my class to assess what they have learned from that day. I can also use the results to re-teach areas I see my students have struggled with from that day. Both Socrative and Plickers require critical thinking. Secretive and Plickers are both a great way to help students collaborate and communicate their ideas on the lesson. I believe the simplicity of both apps can be used to benefit both the teachers and students in the elementary classroom.
