Answer Pad Digital Portfolio

Earlier this week I did a post on The Answer Pad a wonderful graphical student response system.  Yesterday they just released a big update w/ their newest feature being that of the digital portfolio.  This is a great way to collect and organize students work to show case for future classes, self assessment, and track students progress and growth.  A educator can create a portfolio by class or student and use the auto capture feature to automatically take snap shots for their portfolio or do it manually.  Other new features is the ability to tag (i.e. CC, theme, unit, etc.), flag responses to review later, and the ability to export a portfolio to PDF.

Answer Pad

Answer Pad is one of the best free (per 1 teacher - 8 groups & 200 students) tools around for mobile devices.  This is a easy to use graphical student response system that helps turns a classroom paperless by allowing for all testing/assessing to be done on mobile devices.  Educators use the web interface to create lessons then push them out to student devices using the free TapIt app.  This allows them to guide learning, differentiate instruction, and assess students in real-time.

Also, there are lots of templates for teachers to browse through and customize to meet their needs.  For example, an educator can download a template of a graph, map, clock, grid etc. and then draw/type/annotate on it to use w/ their students.

Below is a brief demo...

The Answer Pad

The Answer Pad is one of my favorite all-in-one mobile learning solutions for a classroom.  Not only does it allow a teacher to become paperless by doing all testing/assessing on a iPad (or mobile device), it can turn a iPad into a student response clicker system.  A educator can use Answer Pad in a number of different ways and push out assignments that they can grade and assess in real-time, which allows them to differentiate instruction, guide instruction, and even flip their classroom.

The Answer Pad

The Answer Pad is one of my favorite mobile learning solutions for educators.  This is a combo site/iOS app that lets teachers turn their classroom paperless and do testing/assessing on a mobile device.  Also, Answer Pad turns a student's device into a graphically based student response system that is perfect for differentiating instruction and assessing students in real-time.  This can be used by any curriculum for any subject.

Answer Pad updates

Answer Pad one of the best educational web tools/apps for turning a classroom paperless and flipping instruction has just released a bunch of updates.  Rather then try to explain, I'll just copy/paste in the info from their email...


TAPit app update should be live by Monday. Includes an update for Answer Pad+ users: Paperless solution. When you create an answer sheet, if the teacher uploads the pdf file to the library, when assigning the test, click the Display pdf box and the pdf will be displayed on the iPad app for a paperless solution. The paper test slides in on top of the answer sheet by clicking the pdf icon. The sheet can be dragged around, altered in size, with zooming for text size etc. It's pretty cool. We have this on the browser version, but we are going to be updating the browser version to be the same as the iPad app- it's much smoother.

Also, on the teacher side, just released: Again for Answer Pad+ users: Take an image that you have uploaded in the the Go Interactive Template library, or just use one of ours- you can now add test to it  ( eg, Type in a question), or add a drawing to it before sending it out. An example of this is the coordinate grid. The teacher could take the grid, draw a shape on it, send it out and ask the students to draw the reflection. In addition you can also take an image and add an interactive response type to it. So you could take a graphic and add ABCD to it, a slider or a fill in for eg.


If you would like a brief demo on how to use Answer Pad w/ your class let me know!!!
