Ann+Hoelzel+Flubaroo

Welcome to Ann Hoelzel's Technology Presentation on Flubaroo!


The topic I chose for my presentation is the use of Flubaroo for grading, formative assessment, and feedback. Flubaroo is a free google add-on in sheets. It can take forms quiz results and analyze date, providing important information about students who scored less than satisfactory on the quiz (in red), and questions on which the class scored poorly (backfilled in yellow.) Because forms results can be received instantaneously, graded quickly with Flubaroo, and emailed back to the students within a minute or so, feedback becomes quick and can help the teacher in deciding which direction the lesson needs to go (i.e., moving on if students were successful, reviewing a concept if the question was backfilled in orange.)

Flubaroo is also appealing to any school that has G-suite, but does not have an additional budget for expensive grading tools, as it is free. However, check with your administration and tech director, since you do have to allow access to information when adding on Flubaroo.

Content uses of this technology: This tool can be used with any content area as it ties to google forms/sheets for grading assessments, which take place in any content area.

Pedagogical Considerations for this technology: The key with this is gaining efficient formative assessment, because teachers can quickly use data to adjust, reflect, and improve their teaching. I also see it as a great way to get feedback to students quickly, so they can see areas in which they may need practice.
