Information for Staff:
1. Here is a link to a blog - Smarter Feedback, Better Learning - Using Screenpal for formative assessment and feedback.
Giving students meaningful feedback is one of the most powerful ways to support learning. It can motivate students, help them grow, and clarify next steps. But even when we know how important it is, providing feedback can often feel time-consuming or overwhelming. You can use ScreenPal for assessment, and in this webinar some of the latest features of this tool are shared. It is a chrome extension that can be found HERE.
Here is the link to register for the webinar - there is also a recording.
2. Exam.net - A number of you have started signing in for Exam.net use with the examinations fast approaching. If you would like more information have a read through the following resources to help you set up your school exams. The first is around Managing and trouble shooting an exam, and the other is around 'onboarding' = the creating, editing and setting of the exams themselves.
