Using a learning<\/p>\n<p>management system (LMS) in the classroom provides teachers with a wide<\/p>\n<p>variety of features to support assessment of students.<\/p>\n<p>I recently had the opportunity to attend ICE 2015, the Indiana Connected<\/p>\n<p>Educators conference held at Noblesville High School. At the conference, I<\/p>\n<p>attended a session that featured the LMS, itslearning. In this session \u201cThe<\/p>\n<p>Hoosier LMS: Hands-on w\/ itslearning\u201d with Bryan Bennett, I learned the ins and<\/p>\n<p>outs of the itslearning software, including how you can use LMS in the classroom<\/p>\n<p>for assessment.<\/p>\n<p>With itslearning, a teacher can give informal assessments to their students<\/p>\n<p>with frequent checks for understanding using surveys and polls and can also<\/p>\n<p>build a test or quiz for their students to take online. Teachers even have the<\/p>\n<p>option to link tests to assignments so students can easily access and understand<\/p>\n<p>learning objectives. The test questions can be aligned to course standards in<\/p>\n<p>order to pull reports on student mastery of standards. The software offers a<a href=\"http:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2015\/11\/Screen-Shot-2015-11-12-at-6.37.11-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-475 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2015\/11\/Screen-Shot-2015-11-12-at-6.37.11-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2015-11-12 at 6.37.11 PM\" width=\"141\" height=\"146\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>variety of item types, including either\/or, multiple choice, multiple response, short<\/p>\n<p>answer, open answer, select from a list question, fill in the blank, match, order<\/p>\n<p>and hotspot (click the picture). It also features a lock-down browser so that<\/p>\n<p>students cannot access other websites or applications while taking their test.<\/p>\n<p>Once the students have taken a test, teachers can give feedback to their<\/p>\n<p>students in a variety of ways. They are able to give written, audio or even video<\/p>\n<p>feedback to their students. This option allows teachers to provide specific,<\/p>\n<p>constructive, actionable feedback using preferred learning styles to move<\/p>\n<p>learners forward.<\/p>\n<p>When students are given clear learning targets, frequent, meaningful<\/p>\n<p>feedback, With learning management systems such as itslearning, teachers have<\/p>\n<p>access to a variety of features that allow them to adapt teaching according to<\/p>\n<p>student need, and advance learners through their learning journey.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on ICE, visit their website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iceindiana.org\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.iceindiana.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sierra Emilson Dual Major \u2013 Elementary and Special Education Ball State University &nbsp; &nbsp; Learning Management System \u2013 ICE Conference Online assessment is a powerful method to engage students, encourage [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,21,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-467","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adminstrators","category-speaker","category-classroom-teachers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/467","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=467"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/467\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=467"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=467"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/air\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=467"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
