ePortfolio

E-PortfoliosWhat is an e-Portfolio?

An e-Portfolio is a collection of documentation of a student’s progress, submitted by a

student. The e-Portfolio is updated by both teacher and student. Documentation can

include word processed documents, presentations, scanned hard copies, videos of

the student presenting or participating in a group setting, and/or screen shots of a

student’s work through web-based programs.


E-PortfoliosIs the tool web-based or computer-

based?

The tool can either be web-based (a subscription bought through a website, like TaskStream.com,

eportfolio.org, or a personal website built through a blog host, like WordPress.com). An e-Portfolio can

also be computer-based, which would mean creating and maintaining a “folder”, and continually adding work that has been electronically submitted via e-mail or USB flash drive. In fact, an e-Portfolio

can be kept solely on a USB flash drive, and continually updated. It would be suggested to have

a back up of the e-Portfolio though.


E-PortfoliosWhat does the tool cost?

If the school decides to set-up web-based e-Portfolios, through TaskStream, a student would pay an average of $20. If the teacher is requesting this of his or her students, an average

cost would be $50 a student. TaskStream provides 500 MB of storage space.

Another web-based e-Portfolio host is eportfolio.org. When signing up, an organization would pay $29 for a minimum of 150 profiles. As the amount of profiles increases, the cost per user

decreases. The subscriber is paying for only 100 MB of storage per profile, which may last for a year of school, but will not

provide documentation long-term.If the teacher is requesting a web-based e-portfolio, students could also keep websites, hosted through a blogging website,

such as WordPress, and pay nothing. The site has a 3 GB storage capacity. If the average size of a word document is 50

KB, 60,000 word documents could ultimately be stored.If a teacher is requesting a computer-based e-Portfolio, a

student could keep a USB of his or her work. To fully address a student’s need, a student could make a one-time purchase of a 32 GB USB, and pay an average of $60. By having such a high capacity of storage, the student would not be limited to the type

of file saved.


E-PortfoliosWhat data does the tool produce?

The data produced is a chronicle of student’s progress through one year of schooling, as most

students change teachers, and sometimes schools. If the student stays in the same school

district, a district could ultimately produced data for twelve years of education. If the student chooses to continue the e-Portfolio, they could have their

entire education from kindergarten to their doctorate chronicled!

The hope would be that a variety of files are kept to show student progress, such as word

documents, presentations, scanned hard copies, and/or videos of group interactions, projects,

and/or presentations.


E-PortfoliosHow can this data be used to drive

instruction and to differentiate?

As the student and teacher compile the e-Portfolio, the teacher can track the student’s progress, and

create assignments that will drive the student towards success.

As some students do not need re-teaching or additional resources, the teacher can individualize for each student based on the need. Section 508 students can also have documentation for their IEPs, and allow for any alternate assessments.If a regular or special ed student continues to

struggle with a concept, the teacher has documentation to show improvement, even if it is only in small measures, and motivate the student, parent, and/or the next teacher(s) who will help the

student towards success.

Integrated Learning Systems

Integrated Learning Systems

What is an integrated learning system (ILS)?

• An integrated learning is a computer- or Web-based system that assesses individual students to determine their ability levels in certain content areas. After the initial assessment, the ILS then creates, delivers, and adjusts, instruction, assessments, and learning content according to student need (NCREL 2004)

• The system provides feedback, data, and progress updates to students and teachers to inform about the mastery of content.

• Integrated learning systems can be used as a formative assessment tool.


ALEKSAssessment and Learning in Knowledge

Spaceswww.aleks.com

Overview

ALEKS is a Web-based integrated learning system (ILS) that offers instruction and assessments for numerous subjects areas. Although several college-level subjects are offered by the system, its main content is math for grades 3 – 12 . The K-12 content correlates with state standards (UC Regents & ALEKS Corporation, 2011). ALEKS can also be used for RTI (Aronowitz 2010). It can also be used for supplemental or remediation purposes. The system is for individualized learning.


ALEKSCost:

• The price of ALEKS varies according to the length of the subscription. For K-12 institutions, the price ranges from $40 per student for a 12 month subscription to $20 per student for a 1 month subscription. The company offers varying lengths of subscriptions at varying prices. ALEKS also offers independent subscriptions with prices starting at $19.95 per month.


ALEKSWhat data does the tool produce?

• After the initial assessment, the system produces pie charts for each student. The pie charts show the areas in which the student will be required to focus. It also shows areas that have and have not been mastered.

• Teachers can view data by individuals or whole classes. The data includes student progress, logins, performance, time spent in system, topics worked on, and topics completed. It shows content history and content ready to be started.

• Administrators can view school and district progress towards meeting the standards.


ALEKSHow can this data be used to drive instruction and

to differentiate?

• ALEKS is adaptive to student needs and drives instruction according to assessment results. Teachers can gain information about student weaknesses. Note: ALEKS does not use multiple choice questions.

• Students can work at their own pace on areas in which they need help.

• Teachers may have students work on the system as the sole independent curriculum.


ALEKSHow can this data be used to drive instruction

and to differentiate? (Continued)

• Teachers can print out worksheets based on need.

• Teachers can create quizzes.

• Teachers may intervene with the lessons or offer alternate methods of teaching and practice when necessary.

Benefits – immediate feedback, forboth teacher and student (can also be graded or ungraded)

Concerns – who is taking the assessment/ are students using notes/ how the quiz is administered and type of


QuizStar

-web-based program

- teacher or student created logins

- free service powered by 4teachers.org

- URL: quizstar.4teachers.org


QuizStar

Within QuizStar there are folders which allowthe teacher to create/delete classes and quizzes as well as obtain reports


QuizStar

- The reports manager allows the teacherto see active and archived reports- The reports can be deleted at anytime


QuizStar

Data is reported in a few different ways:- graphed

- broken down by 10% incremental based

- overall by class- number of attempts taken- number of students that took the quiz- mean percentage

- broken down by student showing individual scores


QuizStar

Data is reported in a few different ways:- individual question analysis which shows how many correct, wrong or left blank


QuizStar

All data derived is valuable in that it allows the teacher to know if reteaching a concept is needed or if it is time to move on.

Small group and peer tutoring could be one way that this information could assist in setting up a lesson plan.


Personal Responders

Virginia Taylor-Mounts


Personal Responders

• Personal responders give teachers a quick method of giving students a formative or a summative assessment to a large group or small group.

• Feedback to both the student and the teacher is immediate


Personal RespondersComputer/Web Based

• Personal responders being used in most K-12 schools work in conjunction with a computer and the appropriate software.

• There are browser-based clickers that work on a standard browser. ("Webclicker," n.d.)


Personal RespondersComputer/Web Based

• Grades can be uploaded directly into electronic grad book systems. (“Students click their way to success,” 2009)


Personal Responders

• Cost– SMART Response LE

• $1,635/32 pack

– eInstruction• $1,995/32 pack (Pomeroy IT Solutions, 2011)

– Promethean’s ActivExpression• $1,350/32 pack (Promethean, n.d.)


Personal Responders

• Summative– Teachers can use the responders

to administer a summative exam at the end of a learning activity.

– Grading of the test is immediate– The exam is analyzed; the teacher

has access to individual students data, class data, and even individual question data.


Personal Responders

• Formative– Teachers can integrate responders

into everyday classroom activities. – Because the data is available

immediately to both teachers and students, the teacher can modify as necessary for optimal learning


Personal Responders

• Standards Driven– Import state contents standards– Import core content standards– Create your own test bank of items– Import test banks from textbooks


Personal RespondersData Produced

• Immediate feedback – The teacher knows immediately

which students are answering the questions correctly and which students are not.

– The data can be uploaded to an electronic grade book.

– The data can be exported to Excel as a color coded spreadsheet.


Personal RespondersData Can Drive Instruction

• Standards Driven Instruction – Most responders are programmed to

accept the importation of state standards into the system

– Within the database of the responder system software, will be questions that can be used as a formative or summative assessment.(“CPS TMIr | eInstruction, “ n.d.)



• Standards Driven Instruction – By selecting to administer an

assessment based upon standards, the teacher can determine if the class (each student) is meeting state standards.(“CPS TMIr | eInstruction, “ n.d.)



• Modify lesson during instruction– Based upon answers to short

questions, the teacher can determine the level of mastery of each student. (Ferriter, n.d.)

– The teacher can use this data to determine whether to re-teach or move forward. (“CPS TMIr | eInstruction, “ n.d.)



• More Student Involvement– Students will not be afraid to give an

incorrect answer.– Since the students can anonymously

answer questions, they will be more likely to stay engaged in the lesson or activity. (Ferriter, n.d.)

– This could lead to increased student discussion with all students actively participating in the lesson.



• More Student Involvement– Students will feel more confident as they

ask questions about things they don’t understand and will seek a deper understanding (Ferriter, n.d.)



• Student Meta-cognition– Because students are less concerned

about being embarrassed by an incorrect answer, they will seek a deeper level of understanding.

– They will begin to learn how they learn and take responsibility for their own learning. (Ferriter, n.d.)



• Teacher Benefits– Grades can be uploaded directly into

electronic grade book systems. – Teachers will spend less time grading

papers and have more time for developing lessons that are relevant and rigorous. (“Students click their way to success,” 2009)



• Teacher Benefits• Because teachers have the benefit of the

assessment results; they can differentiate lessons for their students. (Educational systems design, inc., 2010)

• Data collection time is greatly reduced. The system/software collects the data, records the data, and analyzes the data leaving the teacher more time for working on lesson planning. ("CPS™ IR | eInstruction," n.d.)



• Teacher & Student Benefits• As teachers have concrete assessment

data from the responder system, they gain more confidence about their ability to adequately assess students. When student assessments are accurate, lesson planning is more on target with student needs. (Ferriter, 2009)



• Teacher & Student Benefits• After the assessment, the results can be

exported to color coded spreadsheets; teachers can see at a glance the scores of the students. (Ferriter, n.d.)

– Because teachers have the benefit of the assessment results; they can differentiate lessons for their students. (Educational systems design, inc., 2010)
