Example of a Shared Quiz on Edulastic

Description of App

Make Your Own or Use Ready Made Assessments Edulastic allows teachers to make test in various formats including written response, 

Edulastic is a free assessment app.  This tool allows teachers to  both create assessments and/or browse an assessment library of pre-made and current assessments.

Getting Started

Create an account using your google account.  The Edulastic app offers a tutorial and training materials to help teachers get started. I set up my account through Google.  After taking a look at an assessment and data graph I became more committed to learning how to use Edulastic.

Dashboard

It's important to learn the icons on the left hand side of the dashboard which open a demo class, the assessment summary graph, a library with pre-made assessments, search assessments, my own assessments, my reports and manage the class. Assessments may be saved as private or shared with the public. Other options for sharing are to only share with your school or district.  Public lessons in the assignment library may be searched by grade level and specific standard.  

Set Up Your Class
To set up and manage your class click on the left side icon that is the 6th icon from the top and resembles a square with four circles.  Be sure to set up a class and name it before trying to set up students.  After creating a class you will be able to use the url and code provided for adding student accounts.   Students need emails.

Begin my tapping the red or green circle to select the color that your would like to start with.  For example, if I tap the green light and set the timer for 5 minutes the green light will be bright for 4 minutes and then switch to yellow for the remainder of time.  

A bell will ring and the light will change to red at the end of my selected time.

Numberline Classworks Google App

Google Chrome App for Math

http://numberline.classworks.com/ is a free app or webpage that allows students to manipulate a number line more easily than with paper and pencil.  Students who have trouble with directionality and fine motor control will find this tool to be more user friendly.

There are five icons on the bottom that provide easy access to tools.  

1.  The light blue icon allows the user the change the scale.
2.  The second and yellow icon may be used for skip counting by each number shown on the number line.
3.  The third and purple icon allows the user to show addition or subtraction. When a number is clicked with the mouse jumps are automatically drawn to show related jumps forward or backward,  (See Illustration)
4.  The fourth and green icon seems to be useful for clearing jumps and allow the user and clean number line to work on.
5.  The fifth and red question mark is for help with the app.  The help site includes a video and resources.  The help website link is http://help.classworks.com/home/number-line/
