EDLD 5364- What I learned Week 5

This week I was taken back by the readings for new technology in the schools. I really experienced an epiphany when I read about new types of assessments in the classroom. I had never thought of video game and application type assessments to monitor the on-going progress of students. This type of assessment can offer varied levels and immediate feedback to the students and teachers. The challenge with this type of assessment is finding or creating one that is rigorous and monitors their progress over time.
