To conclude the Virginia Natural Resources unit and prepare for the culminating test, the students collaborated to create their own test questions based on the material. Each group recorded their 4-5 questions on the iPod using the Belkin voice recording accessory to the iPod. As a class, we listened to each group’s questions using a docking station. The students recorded their answers on a sheet of paper which I collected.

The students had created test questions for other units in the traditional manner: pencil and paper. They were very excited about the chance to record their questions using the iPod and Belkin accessory.

We didn’t put the questions on the web this time, but we plan to do so next unit.
