Socrative allows you to instantly connect to your learners as they are learning. It is great for instant on the spot assessment or even planned assessments with activities to complete. You can also have it show you the results so you know how to plan the most effective learning environment/experience. It makes for a fun and engaging classroom.
Example 1: My learners are learning about plants and the parts of the plant. I am able to go into the shared quizzes and find a quiz that fits the information that we studied to check for understanding. I am able to take that information to know what we need to go back over before our assessment or to know what we need to revisit before reassessment.
Example 2: I can create my own quiz on plants in advance or as an exit ticket have the learners answer a question that I pose to them based on what we learned/studied as they are preparing to leave so I know how to go about beginning class the next day.
I personally do not use this as the type of learning environment at my school is so very different. We solely use assessment and reassessment there are no "test". We are checking for mastery of a skill and my science is so hands on that I wouldn't have "quizzes" so to speak but I could see me using it to pose a question to check for understanding.
