Using Goformative for assessment in class

To start off, I would like to recommend you to watch a 3 minutes video on the introduction of GoFormative. This video allows you to check out the interface of the GoFormative and how assessments are created and assessed.


Creating Assignment 

GoFormative allows teachers to create assignment, collect data and provide instantaneous feedback to students in real time. So how is GoFormative different form Socrative shared in May? Well, the questions type in GoFormative are very flexible, ranging from simple multiple-choice questions to opportunities that allows students to draw/label using pencil tool. You are spoiled for choices when you design your assessment quiz.


 1) Add Content
  • Embed Image 
  •  Text Block Video (YouTube) 
  •  Whiteboard
2) Add question
  •  Short Answer Multiple Choice 
  •  True/False 
  •  Show Your Work/Drawing  
3) Enhance a PDF/Doc (20 pages a month for free version)


Assign/Share

You can share your quiz via a join code. The quiz can serve as a recap for previous lesson or an exit pass.



 Else, you can give your students a class code. (Highly recommended) After the students sign up, all the quizzes assigned to them will be saved and they can revisit them again and again for revision.





View Responses and analyse results

And the result of the quiz is instantaneous. The lovely feature of data collection makes the whole class performance easily available. The teacher could conclude the topic by addressing to the common problems shown from the quiz.

As shown below, 90% of the students can get question 1 correct and the teacher could consider addressing question 2 and 3 instead.


Last but not the least, the result of all quizzes done are recorded in your account and the assigned students' account.




You can analyse the result at your convenience and formative assessment is indeed made easy via technology.

Do let me know if you encounter any problems during your exploration.

Hope you can get to try out on GoFormative and have great teaching experience with it :)
