ProProfs provided real-time and meaningful data.

Graves County High School is a part of the Graves County Schools. The school aims to provide high-quality education focused on mastery of knowledge and skills essential for lifelong learning, active, responsible citizenship, and social well-being. This is reflected in their mission statement, “Striving for Excellence: No Exceptions, No Excuses."

I needed real-time formative and summative assessment data in order to identify areas students had mastered and areas of weakness. I also needed a program that was easy to use for Chemistry formulas & graphs.

In my early years of teaching, the only option was to look at individual exams, which is very tedious work when teaching 180 students! As scanning equipment became popular, this task became easier, but more expensive. ProProfs was the solution to getting economical, real-time, and meaningful data.

With the exam statistics I can put on screen during class, students can view comparison data to the rest of the class without seeing individual scores. Students like to look at the most missed problems and help determine if it was just the wording of the question, a common misconception, or a weakly taught section of content.

ProProfs also gives me an easily available report that I can take to a professional learning community meeting of teachers to compare student success. I also like the sorting that is possible with the data. There are other \"cute\" quizzing programs available, but data sorting in those falls short in comparison to ProProfs.

In our weeks on NTI, some students had sporadic internet access at home and could not take quizzes when they were assigned. Sorting my ProProfs exams/quizzes by date taken made recording grades an easy task.
