Activity
type: Assessment
This activity allowed me to collect and assess my
Internal Assessment Portfolio for my IB Students and provide them with a typed
rubric with feedback. It allowed for
them to make changes (headers, formatting, etc.) prior to the final submission
date as needed without multiple printings.
I used https://www.dropbox.com/ to collect student labs in my
IB classes. Each student created a
dropbox folder and shared with me. This
allowed them to access their labs from any computer and any changes were
instantly transmitted to me as well. As
I assessed their labs using the IB Rubric, I completed a digital review and
saved this to each student's folder. In
this manner, they received meaningful feedback in a timely manner and could
make adjustments as needed. When Senior
labs were compiled for moderation, it was an easy edit to add the candidate
number and other identifying information that was not available in earlier
years.
Dropbox is AMAZING!!! I have also used this to share folders with
the entire class and with my colleagues.
Students received individual rubrics with feedback
that were delivered in their OWN private dropbox folder.
This made collecting IA (nearly)
painless. I had a timestamp of when
students submittted and could easily look to see whether portfolios were complete.
Since I used the digital rubric, I could also easily reassess the moderated
selections to ensure I had accurately applied the rubric.
