standard 4

IV.
Assessment and Evaluation

Teachers apply technology to facilitate a variety of effective assessment and evaluation strategies. Teachers:

A.
apply technology in assessing student learning of subject matter using a variety of assessment techniques.
B.
use technology resources to collect and analyze data, intrepret results, and communicate findings to improve instructional practice and maximize student learning.
C.
apply multiple methods of evaluation to determine students' appropriate use of technology resources for learning, communication, and productivity.



This standard is about how teachers use technology to teach students is different subject areas. I use technology to teach in different subject areas.

For math, I have found several sites that my kids can practice math skills that I have taught in class. The sites give them practice on their own and give them immediate results on how they are doing.

In science, there are sites that allow the students to perform science experiments on line and allow the students to view different habitats of the world and the animals that live there. My students can go on line and view in real time zoos animals, weather, and solar activities.

The hindrance to using this kind of technology is the time it takes to find suitable sources for the kids to use .
