Why Should I Use Socrative in my Classroom?
Socrative allows teachers to quickly assess students with prepared activities or on-the-fly questions to get immediate insight into student understanding. Then use auto-populated results to determine the best instructional approach to most effectively drive learning.
How Do I Use Socrative?
Hickory Creek Teachers are using Socrative For:
​
-
Quizzing
-
Competitive Quizzes
-
Self Assessment
-
Peer-to-peer questioning
-
Questionnaires and Surveys
-
Sharing Resources
-
Ongoing Assessment
​
I mainly use it for Summative Assessments and Quick Checks along the way! I have made all of my Summative Assessments available on Socrative. This is such a great way to assess the students, because the teacher has the option for everyone to get immediate feedback during their test and all the data is available for grades as soon as the students finish.
Hickory Creek Teacher Tips:
Tip #1: I love to use the Space Race option to get a good idea of students know before we start the unit. This not only gives me an idea of where to start, but also an idea of what the kids will be expected to know.
