The Good Type of the Flu - Flubaroo (It's like a time warp.)

Have you dreamed of the day where you can give your students quick formative feedback and have the results automatically tallied, color-coded and recorded?

That day is today.  Your dreams are now coming true.

This magical tool, flubaroo, works in conjunction with a Google Form to automatically grade the results of your quiz and enter them into a color-coded spreadsheet.  Personalized results can also be emailed to the student giving them instant feedback.

Things that stood out:

  • Teacher gets a color-coded answer sheet.
  • Red - Names in red scored less than 75 on the quiz.
  • Orange - Questions highlighted in orange indicate less than 60% of the students got it right.


These two colors could make differentiated instruction more targeted, you know who needs what instantly.
