Using Socrative in your class

It looks like Socrative could be pretty handy to use in class. If you need to find the app, don't forget about using the search feature on the iPad. After you have set up your account, you should be able to start setting up your quizzes.



When you have entered the app, you can start tweaking some of the features. The My Room Number is pretty important since you will be sharing this with the students. The good news is you can change your room number. You can also clear the room and select different quizzes on this screen. If you click on MY PROFILE and it will take you to a number of other options.




On this screen you can change the room number and change your password if you want.

Back on the previous screen you can make your single question or multi-question quizzes.

But perhaps the greatest feature is that you can make your own quizzes in MS Excel. There isn't a way to do it on the iPad that I have found yet BUT it was very easy to do on the computer. I navigated to their website, www.socrative.com, and logged in. Under their manage quiz section, you are able to find the excel template under the import quiz section.



I was able to save the template and I plan to make a bunch of quizzes and upload them at a later date. That way I can keep copies of the quizzes and modify them at a later date if I want to make changes.


That's all for now.
