Amy, I agree with you that multiple choice test knowledge rather than skills. I hate the idea of having to memorize course materials. I think I gain more from hands on, meaningful experience.

You were very honest in your response to reading. I agree, the book was packed with insightful ideas for using technology in the classroom. I can't wait to explore some of the links that were posted in the text. Thanks for allowing me to read your post. All the best.

I am glad I am not the only person who hates memorizing things for a test. You definitely right with the fact that rubrics is a very time consuming but when it is done it is very beneficial!

Hi Amy,

I really enjoyed reading your comments on chapter 9. I too think it can be a good idea instead of testing a child on right and wrong answers to provide other forms of testing to allow them to think outside the box. That was a good point you brought out.

Great Reflection!
