There are many tools available on the web to assist in differentiating student assessment. I have USA Test Prep pretty often in my traditional classes where I teach. Another site that is great for differentiating student assessment is Socrative. This is a quick easy way to assess student's learning. Another thing to consider when thinking about differentiating student assessment is the needs of a special needs student. I have had students in the past that needed to verbalize the steps to me instead of write them down. While i have had other students that were not able to verbalize but wanted to type everything out and email me their work. These were all acceptable and great ways for the students to still learn the material and be assessed on what they learned.
There are many more out there, but for this quest I chose to use Toon Doo. This is just like a ticket out the door in a traditional classroom. This would make a great transition to make sure our students content and process before moving on and before reaching the unit test.
