Grading Tool to Try- Flubaroo

Would you like your quizzes to grade themselves? If so, try Schoolnet or Flubaroo.

Many teachers at Piedmont already use these tools. Ms. Thornburg first told me about Flubaroo years ago and Mr. George first told me about Schoolnet this year via Mr. Carpenter. (wait, it was actually phenomal facilitator Katherine Ruffolo who first told me about Schoolnet-but she was so far ahead of me I didn't realize how valuable the info was at the time.)

For Step by Step Flubaroo Instructions see this link http://teachamazing.com/create-surveys-and-graded-quizzes-with-google-drive/

Following are some photos of Flubaroo in action during a great session on Google Classroom via Mr. Aubrey Harrison.  (I also learned about some great new changes just added to Classroom )

Add Flubaroo to your Google Drive as an add-on.

To add Google Drive Open Up any spreadsheet within Google Drive (Google Sheets) then select Add-ons* Get Add-ons

After making a test on Google Forms, take the test yourself under the name Answer Key - if there are any misspellings or typos in a student answer you can always scan for those on the spreadsheet of answers and go back and re-grade it as seen in this image.

You can join your own class by using your gaggle email (teachers have one too) That way you can see what the student view looks like (here is a split screen of both views of a quiz turn in on Google Classroom.

Bonus Tool: This is not a google app but it is useful- it's a stand alone free website I heard of from Ms. Hogan Hamer. Just open the site at Vocaroo.com, speak into your microphone and instantly get a link to your audio recording. Students can make podcasts or you can leave them audio messages...
