Eliademy | Your free online classroom How To Create A Test That Grades Itself Using Google Forms How To Create Self Grading Assessments With Google Forms Google Forms isn’t the first thing you think of when you think of assessment. It’s not especially elegant, it won’t wow students, and the learning curve isn’t as mild as it might be. But with a little bit of work on the front-end, Google Forms can return the favor in spades on the back-end in the form of self-grading assessments. While there isn’t an app (yet) that can uncover the true nuance of understanding, if you’re using multiple-choice assessments–even just as pre and summative assessments–this trick can save you time, allowing the real potential of assessment to shine through in consistently extracting data to revise planned instruction. Mike Reading from Google Apps For Edu gives the following itemized rundown on how to use Google Forms to accomplish exactly that in the video below.

Hem - Digitala Skollyftet ImageQuiz Where Would You Live on This Map of the Internet? If there was a map of the Internet, which country would you call home? This fascinating map was created by Slovakian student and amateur graphic design artist Martin Vargic, who often goes by the pseudonym Jay Simons, and he left no detail untouched. The map is divided into categorized continents, which are then further detailed with countries. Cities are represented with sub-categories and trends; the iPhone 5 on the Apple sector, and OneDirectionVEVO in the YouTube country, while the countries' capitals are portrayed with the CEO or founder's last name. No map of the internet would be complete without all parts being equally represented. Inspired by this XKCD map, Vargic's attention to detail is absolutely stunning, and a considerable amount of research went into the map before anything was drawn out. The complex map was so large that it had to be drawn in 4 segments, which was later merged into one.
Per Kornhall: Digitala läromedel – när, hur och varför? #framtidenslaromedel | Hannas skolblogg Under två dagar i oktober samlades drygt 400 lärare, pedagoger och skolutvecklare på konferens “Framtidens Läromedel” i Solna utanför Stockholm.

Hur skapar vi digitala verktyg som fungerar? Resultaten av användning av digitala verktyg måste utvärderas, och goda exempel spridas. Hur kan vi sprida digitala lärresurser som träffar målet (lärande) lite oftare? Ur Hattie J. och P. Källa: Per Kornhall #framtidenslaromedel Paradigmskifte?
