iPads for Masterful Math: Randomizing Formative Math Assessment (e228)

Dr. Sean Nank’s research shows that the single biggest method for improving learning with iPads is to use online formative assessments. However, his formative assessments have a twist -- students are all answering DIFFERENT math questions. This intriguing research is a must listen for any school with access to technology. You do not need iPads to implement and learn from this research. Sean’s book is Teaching over Testing.  Enter the contest to win a copy of the book.
