Tests in T4T?

Question:
Are we going to have tests in this class?



Answer:
We will have numerous assessments of your learning in this course, but we will not have any multiple choice tests. Since this course focuses on learning not only knowledge but also skills embodied in the ISTE NETS (National Educational Technology Standards) for Teachers, we will be using performance assessments to measure the learning in T4T. As you have hopefully already seen, we will be using a variety of rubrics in these performance assessments.

As described in the course outline, we will be using a series of "Quarterly Checkup Quizzes" to insure everyone is staying up to date on course assignments. We also will use a class learning portal to aggregate all the content being shared by members of the class, and posts shared there will be included in the quarterly checkup quizzes.
