In addition to hardware like mobile phones, websites like Google, and software like Office products, there are many different tools that teachers and students can use to facilitate teaching and learning. There are many ways to classify digital tools, and often, a tool may fall into several different categories. The NWEA (2021) classifies digital tools that teachers can use to support formative assessment as those that:
\nRecord audio and video
\nCreate quizzes, polls, and surveys
\nBrainstorm, mind map, and collaborate
\nPresent, engage, and inspire
\nGenerate word or tag clouds
\nGet real-time feedback
\nFoster family communication
\nStrengthen teacher-to student or student-to-student communication
\nKeep the conversation going with live chats
\nCreate and store documents or assignments<\/p>\n
This assignment gives you the opportunity to explore a variety of digital tools used in the formal education of early learning, kindergarten to high school, and then in colleges and universities. In some cases, the same digital tool may be used for all age groups, and in other cases, the technology is specific to the developmental abilities of the learner. You will identify and analyze tools for learners across academic levels.<\/p>\n
