Midwest Summit Spring 2017

Collaboration and communication through the implementation of digital learning practices help prepare all students to succeed as lifelong learners. Formative assessment can be used to improve student achievement and, when students receive descriptive feedback on their work, they are able to analyze what they have done well and identify areas for improvement. Digital Tools including G Suite for Education and iPad apps can provide students with effective tools to help learners receive and provide feedback, along with opportunities to reflect on the learning outcomes. This session will focus on checking for understanding and providing targeted feedback and opportunities for reflection through the use of G Suite for Education tools, G Suite Add-Ons, Web Apps and iPad Apps. We will also look at the use of digital portfolios with the app Seesaw to create opportunities for students to give and receive meaningful feedback. You’ll come away with hands-on experiences, sample lessons/activities, and best practices/classroom applications for creating growth in the use of feedback through designing digital learning experiences.
