Create 2.1.3 – Using Web 2.0 Tools to Differentiate Student Assessment Quest

My favorite way of having students demonstrate their understanding is through using the app called ShowMe on the iPad. Students can record an explanation of them "teaching" a concept, and I can play it back. I usually give a rubric for the project and let them take it from there. Below is a picture of a ShowMe screen, explaining the concept of a volcano.



Another use for the ShowMe app is to let students work math problems and record themselves. This allows teachers to "watch" for mistakes and help students to make corrections. Below is a tutorial for the ShowMe app.
