This semester, several teachers have begun administering assessments on iLearn. One of these teachers is Ms. Kelley Murphy, science teacher at Bryant.
Kelley uses iLearn to create quizzes that involve color pictures, drag-and-drop fill-in-the-blank questions, and labeling diagrams.
Thus far, she has created assessments that not only fairly offer students the opportunity to demonstrate their mastery, but engage them as they do so.
Furthermore, Ms. Murphy also creates accommodated versions of her assessments. These accommodated versions contain questions that address the same standards, but are found in a format more suited to the individual needs of students.
And, using iLearn’s distinct features, Ms. Murphy makes visible only the version of the assessment that is appropriate for each individual student’s needs.
Ms. Murphy uses data from the test questions to make decisions about the direction of her instruction, as she has categorized each question according to the standard it addresses. This makes it easy to glance at the data and determine learning needs.
