 * Select between multiple choice or short answer.
 * Type the questions and your answer choices
 * Tap the square next to the correct answer to mark correct answers.
 * Continue adding questions (I usually like to limit these to 3-5) by selecting the question type and adding the answer choices and correct answer.
 * Tap **“SAVE”** when you are done with your quiz.
 * Tap the **Main Screen** button/icon in the top left corner
 * Tap **“Start Quiz”**and make your selections:
 * student-paced vs teacher-paced
 * random answer choices
 * immediate feedback/disable immediate feedback.
 * live results
 * **End the Activity** when students have finished answering.
 * Best Practice Use:** Use this app to check for understanding, as an exit ticket in the classroom, as a formative assessment tool, for student feedback during lessons.

Students will use their mobile devices to provide input or feedback during a lesson activity.
 * Student Procedure:**
 * Students **download the Socrative Student App** (available for iPad, iPhone, Android, iPod) or use a device with the app downloaded. Students can also use **laptops with a web browser and go to** @http://m.socrative.com
 * One the app or web site opens, the students enter the teacher’s room number and tap **“Join Room.”**
 * Teachers should open the Teacher app or open the teacher site:   @http://t.socrative.com and tap **“Start Quiz”** to begin their preloaded quiz.
 * **Questions begin appearing once the teacher has started the quiz.**


 * Follow-up:**
 * Now that you have completed this activity, brain storm other ways that you might use Socrative in the curriculum.
 * Here are a few: as a lesson starter to review concepts from homework or the previous days lesson, to check for understanding as a lesson is presented, as a “Clicker” replacement, as an exit ticket at the end of the class/activity.
 * “How could you adapt this activity to work with your students?”
