Survey Monkey is a Web 2.0 tool that I stumbled upon when our Tech Teacher sent us an e-mail with a link to an online survey. I took the survey and then, I decided to explore it further. Here's the video of my monkey quest.
While I have not used it yet, I have several things in mind:
- Quick survey to parents, this will prove beneficial when trying new software or sites. See what parents think of it.
- Pre Assessments. At the beginning of the year I give a pre assessment to see where students are and the steps I need to take to get them where I want them to be. I think that using Survey Monkey would eliminate the test anxiety that sometimes affects the outcome in pre assessments.
- Continuous Asssessment of my practices: How are students using, enjoying, benefitting from the tools we are using in class. This will allow the experts (my students) give me feedback on which tools are more useful, etc.
- Course Evaluation from students and parents. I have always asked for an evaluation from my students. Now, I can also add one from parents. The great thing about using Survey Monkey is the anonymity factor. Who does not like that?
I can not wait to get back to Spanish pod. Since moving to Florida, my sons and I have been talking about learning Spanish. This may be the way to go! Thanks. And Fantastic job on these 2.0 tools!
