VietTESOL International Convention 2022
Nha Trang University, September 16-18
Traditional testing method relying significantly on paper and pens has largely been perceived as a time-consuming and boring job for teachers and frightening and tiring experience for a number of students. Teachers, therefore, have been encouraged to use technology to facilitate testing meanwhile reducing students' negative feelings. For formal examinations, university or school testing systems may be the official choice, however, with smaller community like classes, free and user-friendly web-based tools can be significantly useful. This workshop focuses on two educational tools, called Socrative and Testmoz, to support teachers in testing and marking as well as enhancing students' testing experiences. Participants of the workshop will experience some activities with these tools, learn how to use the tools to design, deliver tests and check students' results. At the end of the workshop, there will be a short discussion regarding participants' ideas on potential application of these tools for teaching and testing.
