Chapter 10: Assessing Meaningful Learning with Technology

Chapter ten is about assessing meaningful learning with technology. In reading this chapter I revisited a lot about assessment like authentic assessment along with performance and alternative assessment. Prior to this class I had explored these types of assessment so there wasn’t much that I learned in this chapter. Assessing growth through portfolios is something that we learned in the paper form so this chapter just explained how to transfer them into electronic portfolios. That was one of the forms of technology-based assessments that the book explores. A benefit to doing the E-portfolio is that they are easy to update and show the progression made from the beginning to the end. There are also technology based rubrics and even Clicker assessment tools which we were able to use in class. These are very beneficial, especially since students have the option to submit their answers anonymously. There wasn’t much to learn in this chapter since our previous classes had covered so much on assessment, it was just more on how to convert them into electronic documents.
