Assessments in 6th Grade Social Studies

6th Grade Social Studies

Chris Howard

Problem Identified: I needed to have more data to assess students mastery in 6th Grade Social Studies.

Hypothesis: If I use assessments in different formats one time a week, then students in 6th Grade Social Studies will improve their mastery of the material as measured by more information in the Hive.

Data Collection: Used quizizz and its spreadsheet to collect data on mastery.

Actionable Step: Creating quizzes in quizizz is fast and easy. Some problems are caused by the amount of time it takes for questions to load.

Overall Findings/Impact: It is difficult to give mastery checks one time a week when you only see a class 3 periods a week. I found that our lack of bandwidth caused any computer-based assessment to be unreliable. Some kids could not get the assessments to load.
