If you are looking for ideas around assessment then you might find this video really useful. The first part focuses on the ideas of using Google Forms to make simple online assessments. These assessments can include video, pictures, text etc and they allow you to set up the assessment in such a way that students get automatic feedback and a score when they do the assessment. It also means that all the assessments are tracked and so the teacher can easily see that score the students got and what areas the students might still need work on. Google Forms is free, easy to use and easy to get results from.

The next assessment tool I suggested was to use a simple screen share tool to get your students to record themselves speaking. This idea has loads of potential as you can get your students to work alone or in groups /pairs and they can record themselves giving a presentation, talking over a picture, having a discussion or even answering a series of questions. In fact with this FREE technology they can talk over practically anything and this can be a great way of assessing students. This is ideal for work in language teaching but it can really be in any area of the curriculum.

The 3rd area I focus on is E-Portfolios. I tend to use E-Portfolios in all the online courses. I like the idea of students creating content and then adding it to the E-Portfolio as a way of assessing students learning. Students can add content to their E-Portfolio and then reflect on it and this can build up into a useful record of their learning and their thoughts. E-Portfolios can be quite hard work at the start to get right but they are so rewarding. For me they are one of the most effective ways of assessing students online.
