New Features Support Remote Teaching.

• Notifications: As students work on your assignments, their submissions and scores appear in a small news feed on the main control panel. You can also post short notifications and you can notify students with assignment links. Students also see notifications that are just for them and you can manage them.
• Audits: Get detailed information about everything each student does, from logging on to viewing documents to how long they spent on a task. Students can now see this. Proctors can now access this. You can generate a code for your administrator to see this too.
• Proctors: Parents can register as proctors. You send them a unique code, the system send parents an unlock code for locked assessments.

• Embedded Video Questions: I am embedding video tutorials a lot with multiple-choice and short answer questions. This feature is in Add Element | Stimulus-based Multiple-Choice and Short Answer
• Multiple-Choice Settings: I am frequently setting time limits on multiple-choice to cut down on the temptation to cheat. The test locks up if they open a tab and it records window resizing. I am using the date-time window a lot, where I set the test to be available only during a certain hour for un-proctored tests. Then I can use our school's remote desktop monitoring system to watch students take the test.
• Discussion Forum: The school closing hit right when I was doing Model UN and Model House of Representatives! Fortunately, the discussion area lets me conduct online debates as students debate bills and resolutions. Very easy to grade!
• Document Upload: I confess, I never liked using Google Classroom. Grading papers is so much easier on InnovationAssessments.com: better organized, embedded with rubrics, and great tools like multi-part tests, grade curving using z-score standardization, and more.
• Many of my colleagues who still use Google Classroom are finding the external link features helpful. You can embed any Innovation Assessment in a Google Classroom feed.
