Educators understand and use data to drive their instruction and support students in achieving their learning goals.
Understanding technology vocabulary is vital for the success of students in a technology based world. Rather than taking quizzes/test using pen/paper, students are able to explore multiple ways, such as games and flashcards, to study basic definitions related to technology. Here is a Vocabulary Definition Test that can be used to test your initial/basic knowledge of technology.
Students have the ability to demonstrate their understanding and competency in other ways that are not traditional. To check for this understanding, teachers can assign online programs where students can insert their data/findings to create a visual of what they have learned. These are especially beneficial during research projects when the teacher wants to see creativity rather than a narrative.
