Age group is Kindergarten -3rd grade
Technology-based assessment tools are available in abundance. As a technology coach and classroom teacher, it is important for you to identify tools that are aligned to a specified purpose.
Imagine you are the technology coach for your school and the principal has asked you to provide a 5-7 minute narrated digital presentation about technology-based assessment tools at the next virtual faculty meeting. The goal is to select tools that teachers in the grade range of your choice (K-3, 4-8, 9-12) can begin implementing for formative and summative assessments in their classrooms. The selected tools should align with the student technology standards and provide student achievement data that can be used to improve instruction and maximize student learning. The recorded digital presentation should include both visual and audio content.
Consider the various types of formative and summative assessments teachers use and the types of achievement data that are helpful for improving instructional practice and maximizing student learning. Conduct research to help you select five technology-based assessment tools for delivering formative and summative assessments in a variety of ways. When selecting tools, be sure you have selected at least one that would be appropriate for each type of assessment below.
Recall questions (facts, definitions, steps in a procedure using assessments such as multiple choice and true/false questions)
Skills and concepts (comparisons, summarizing, cause/effect, making predictions using assessments such as open-ended questions or interactive assessments like demonstrations)
Strategic thinking (using evidence to justify/make arguments, plan/analyze/use multiple methods to get a solution using interactive assessments or non-interactive assessments such as oral presentations and extended essays)
Extended thinking (research and make connections among ideas and across disciplines to devise a plan and solve a problem using interactive or non-interactive assessments)
Peer review of work and/or self-assessment of work by student
After selecting your five virtual tools, create a 5-7 minute narrated digital presentation for the school faculty. Remember that video and audio quality are important and should be taken into consideration. Ensure your video is filmed with sufficient lighting and that the volume is adequate for viewers to hear. Intonation, expression, proper speech, and professional attire are expected.
Refer to “Recording, Editing, and Uploading a Video or Podcast” and use an online video platform such as Zoom, Loom, YouTube, or Vimeo to upload your completed video. If you upload your video to YouTube, select the “unlisted” option. Ensure that others can access and view your linked video prior to submitting.
For each of the five tools you have selected to feature in your presentation, provide the following:
Name of the tool, link to the tool, and a summary of how the tool works.
Explanation of why the selected tool is appropriate for the grade range you have selected.
Description of how the tool could be applied to a lesson in the form of a formative or summative assessment along with how use of the tool supports student technology standards.
Explanation of the type of data that is produced by the tool and how the data can be used by the teacher to improve instruction and maximize student learning.
Submit both the digital presentation and the link to the narrated presentation. Ensure that others can access and view the link to your narrated digital presentation prior to submitting.
In TEC-516, you created the “Technology Coaching Website” you will develop throughout the program. You also began completing the “Standards and Rationale” worksheet. In ongoing preparation for the capstone project, add the link to the video on the appropriate page of the “Technology Coaching Website.” Add this artifact to the “Standards and Rationale” worksheet using the table associated with TEC-536. Submit both the completed “Technology Coaching Website” and “Standards and Rationale” worksheet as part of the capstone project in TEC-595.

My topic:Role of parental involvement in child Academic Achievement
After reviewing research that is relevant to your proposal topic, you are now ready to move onto developing a hypothesis! You will use the techniques discussed in this module to formulate a hypothesis for your topic that is clear, specific, identifies all your variables, and has a clear prediction about the relationship between your variables. Remember that a hypothesis should be straight-forward and to the point, and is often times just one or two sentences.
For this assignment, you should develop your hypothesis using the concepts we’ve reviewed this week. There is an additional question to answer on the assignment document provided below.

Essay 1 Directions:
After reading our Week 1 texts, including Carol Dweck’s “The Power of Believing You Can Improve,” Arel Moodie’s “The Secret to Student Success,” Jack Kavanagh’s “Fearless Like a Child,” Chimamanda Adichie’s “The Danger of a Single Story,” Jamil Zaki’s “Self-Care Isn’t the Fix for Late-Pandemic Malaise,” Maya Angelou’s “Alone,” and Cherrie Morgaga’s ” The Welder,” explain two primary factors which can help us to become more successful and resilient in our personal, academic, and professional lives. For example, you might focus on:
growth mindset (Dweck) and asking for help (Moodie)
OR
rising above single stories (Adichie) and finding community (Angelou)
OR
becoming fearless (Kavanagh) and standing up for change (Moraga)
NOTE: the two success and resilience factors you provide will serve as a “working thesis statement” for Essay 1.
Organization Tips:
In the introduction, include a series of hooksintroducing the topic of success and resilience (a quote from someone famous, which is introduced and cited, thoughtful statements, anecdotal story, etc.) and end with a clear thesis in the last sentence listing the two factors you think are most influential inhelping us to reach our goals.
Then develop a full body paragraph on each factor listed in your thesis (make the body order match the order of points listed in your thesis). In body paragraph 1, start with a clear transition and topic sentence showing which success and resilience factor you are discussing, (make this match the first point in your thesis), such as growth mindset (Dweck), or asking for help (Moodie), orbecoming fearless (Kavanagh), or rising above single stories (Adichie), or assisting others (Zaki), or finding community (Angelou), or standing up for change (Moraga). Then follow the topic sentence with your own explanation for why this ingredient is so important. Illustrate your point with details and direct quotes with quote marks (copy the exact words) from one of our Week 1 Module course texts. The two support quotes from one of our Unit 1 texts needs to be in proper MLA format using a clear signal phrase, quote marks around the author’s words, and parenthetical source citation. End body paragraph 1 with a wrap up sentence on the paragraph point for smooth finish.
In body paragraph 2, start with a clear transition and topic sentence showing which success and resilience factor you are discussing, (make this match the second point in your thesis), such as growth mindset (Dweck), or asking for help (Moodie), or becoming fearless (Kavanagh), or rising above single stories (Adichie), orassisting others (Zaki), or finding community (Angelou), or standing up for change (Moraga). Then follow the topic sentence with your own explanation for why this ingredient is so important. Illustrate your point with details and direct quotes with quote marks (copy the exact words) from one of our Week 1 Module course texts, including two support quotes with proper MLA format using a clear signal phrase and parenthetical source citation. End body paragraph 2 with a wrap up sentence on the paragraph point for smooth finish.
Remember to use the MLA format for quotes with a signal phrase at the beginning and parenthetical citation at the end for sources with time stamps (TED Talks), page numbers (articles– when provided), or line numbers (poetry), such as:
Dweck explains, ” ” (5:13).
Zaki states that ” .”
Moraga describes, ” ” (lines 47-48).
Note: since there is no page number for the Zaki quote, there is no parenthetical citation since the author’s name is in the signal phrase. In this case, since there is no page citation, the punctuation goes inside the quote mark: Zaki states that ” .”
After developing two primary factors which help us to become successful and resilient in body paragraphs 1 and 2, add a body paragraph 3 which provides your own example from personal experienceillustrating how these success and resilience factors helped you to achieve a specific academic, personal, or professional goal (excelling in a class, passing a rigorous test, an accomplishment in sports, an improved relationship, completing an important work project, advancing to a supervisory position, etc.) For example, you might describe struggling in a challenging algebra class in high school, but then developing a growth mindset combined with asking for help to improve, trying new study techniques, and finishing the semester with a solid “B.”
In the conclusion, wrap up your thesis points in different words, refer back to your intro. hooks and paper title to frame the paper for your readers, and explain how these success and resilience factors will help you in the future. End on a positive note, encouraging your readers to find their own success and resilience ingredients which will help them to flourish in life as well.
After the conclusion, on a separate page include a Works Cited for the two class sources quoted in your paper (the Works Cited page is not included in the page count).
On a separate page after the Works Cited, list five writing techniques that you used in your paper which we have reviewed together about creating an effective academic essay (engaging intro. hook, clear thesis, clear body paragraph topic sentences, effective quotes, concrete details for response, smooth transitions, conclusion framing paper with intro. and/or title tie-back, etc).
Note: This is not a research essay. Your examples should be based on our Week 1 texts for body paragraphs 1 and 2, as well as your own personal experience for body 3. There is NO OUTSIDE RESEARCH.
Additionally, be sure to include 2 support quotes (copy the exact words and put them in quote marks) from our Week 1 texts in body paragraphs 1 and 2 (4 quotes total).
As you begin writing Essay 1, consider the different strategies and examples that our Week 1 sources use to illustrate their arguments. Use these texts as a model of writers using clear points and vivid examplesto develop the points in their thesis, and be sure to do this in your essay as well.
Brainstorming Questions to Help Develop Essay 1:
The following questions will help generate ideas to create a compelling argument about specific factors which can help us to be more resilient and successful in reaching our goals.
What factors help to create success and resilience?
Which factors in our Week 1 texts resonated the most with you, such as growth mindset (Dweck), or asking for help (Moodie), or becoming fearless (Kavanagh), or rising above single stories (Adichie), or assisting others (Zaki), or finding community (Angelou),or standing up for change (Moraga)?
What ingredients contribute to our ability to face and overcome challenges we encounter?
What obstacles have you overcome during your personal, academic, and professional journeys?
Which accomplishments are you most proud of?
How were you able to reach these goals?
In what ways have these experiences shaped who you are?
Where are you in your personal, academic, and professional journeys right now?
What are your goals for the future?
What have you learned by facing and overcoming challenges and how will this help in other areas of your life as well?
