This contribution addresses the theme of technology for formative assessment in the mathematics classroom. Taking a design-based research approach within the European project FaSMEd, we focus on the ways connected classroom technology may support formative assessment strategies in whole class activities. We will refer to a theoretical framework developed within the FaSMEd project, which relates the development of different formative assessment strategies by different agents (teacher, peers, and the student) to different technology functionalities. In particular, we will focus on the functionalities that allow to submit polls to students, gather the answers from them and show the results (both individual answers and cluster ones) in real time. With reference to the theoretical framework and existing literature, we discuss, how the polls can be used, during classroom activities, to foster the activation of formative assessment strategies.

Abstract
This contribution addresses the theme of technology for formative assessment in the mathematics classroom. Taking a design-based research approach within the European project FaSMEd, we focus on the ways connected classroom technology may support formative assessment strategies in whole class activities. We will refer to a theoretical framework developed within the FaSMEd project, which relates the development of different formative assessment strategies by different agents (teacher, peers, and the student) to different technology functionalities. In particular, we will focus on the functionalities that allow to submit polls to students, gather the answers from them and show the results (both individual answers and cluster ones) in real time. With reference to the theoretical framework and existing literature, we discuss, how the polls can be used, during classroom activities, to foster the activation of formative assessment strategies.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
