Edmodo just released Snapshot for practice with the Common Core. I immediately wanted to try it out. It took only minutes to set up an assignment for the class.
I polled the students to see what they thought of it. They thought it was easy to use, and they enjoyed it.
I thought it has just enough practice questions for the each standard. There are more standards ready in math than in English. To me it is a huge undertaking to have both subjects and all the grades. Kudos to Edmodo for releasing it while they are still working on it so that we can check it out while we have students in class.
I was most interested in the data that I would receive. You have your choice to view it by student or standard. It is color coded to show meets, borderline or below.
I joined a Twitter chat they held about it to give my feedback. I am hoping that they will make it so you can assign standards by students and not just the class group. This is would be great so you can move students along at their pace just like the NoRedInk app.
