  Case: Using Assessment Data Appropriately
I am a new teacher and I have found that I have struggled with grading assessments on time so that the data can be used to guide my instruction. Oftentimes, I find myself there on the weekend or bringing work home so that I will not be boggled with work during the school day. What are some techniques some of you veteran teachers use to make sure that you are using the data immediately?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
For multiple choice assessments, there are several online grading programs you can use to easily print and grade scantrons. One that I use has an app for your phone that you can use to grade student's papers immediately when they are finished. Then all of the data is saved for you to view later and make decisions regarding your instruction based on item and standard analysis. For open ended questions, I would suggest using a checklist or rubric to grade so that you know exactly what you are looking for when you are reading their responses and can give students more specific feedback.

Comments: I agree, a rubric for short and long answer questions is very helpful both for you and for the student. I have also seen apps that allow you to grade multiple choice tests quickly. With both of these solutions, you can compare all of the grades for the class and see if there were certain questions or areas that a lot of students missed.
