Evaluation of applications used, and their possible use in my subject area. Part 2.

Welcome to Part 2.

Socrative is a piece of software that can be run on multiple devices at the same time. This means that the students can have access to the software as the lecturer who is in control of the program. Socrative's only use however, is to run quizzes, and when the result data is collected the lecturer can assess them virtually instantly. It is a useful application for assessing the amount of information that your students can remember or that your students already know.  The software allows for various options on the types of quizzes that you can create in your virtual classroom which allows the teacher to be flexible. The teacher can then keep the questions relevant to the topic or discussion subject. It is

very useful in drawing attention to the students lack of knowledge, or their poor results by providing instant feedback which the lecturer can then assess and where necessary provide specific remedial help or assistance.
