Socrative Reviews & Product Details

I like to use mine for quizzes or tests. I have also used it for gaming such as Space Race. The program is nice for me to go back and see a record of student progress. I really like the ability to create a teacher pace quiz/test. I use this for a pretest and posttest format before and after I have taught a specific unit. Students get to see the results instantly and I can control the pace of the test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I choose "Short Answer to a multi-part question, I wish I could create multiple written boxes that could be used in creating a question that has a Part A, a Part B, etc.

I wish there could be a "Matching" choice when creating a quiz. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that the ability to put time into each question and have a little review at the end of the question is excellent. Also that you get your answer revised almost immediately is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That the questions don't have a timer or that there is no timer overall, it closes when the time is up with no warning whatsoever, which can be very stressful and disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The children can log in very easily and that code can not only be choses by the teacher but it also always stays the same. I also like the space race. There are enough options for creating questions and you can add pictures to questions. Creating a quiz is very quick and easy. I also like to use socrative for exit tickets. I can work with it from the iOS app or on the website. I also like the data that is generated at the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike. Everything always works. We have perfect integration with Showbie. All our teachers have an account, and they hardly need the training to work with Socrative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easily administered. Saves all my quizzes, et. for me Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I need to maintain a Pro account in order to have additional rooms. This is money that I have to spend out of my own pocket to have a useful tool for my students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Love the ability to monitor student progress

The pro account is worth it for the multiple rooms

Great for both online and in person classes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like a greater variety of question types available. Compared to google forms and other tools, it's pretty restricted.

Sending results by email -file size is large, the emails don't get through.

I'd like an integrated grade book, that tracks students grades across all assignments and rooms. It's tiresome to have to download and enter grades for assignments one by one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease in creating, testing, recording grades. Socrative does all of the data disaggregation for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. The only thing that would make this 100% perfect is if Socrative added the ability for the user to select for the questions to be read aloud for students who have accommodations. That would be so incredibly incredibly time-saving and benefical, as I currently have to create separate tests for those students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how quickly and effectively I can assess students formally or informally! I can gain a lot of useful information using Socrative to assess what students need extra help with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing that I dislike about Socrative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can scramble the questions and answers, and it grades the test. It also gives feedback on each question Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish it could do matching questions. I also would like to see a feature that would allow the students to highlight text like they can on state tests. I wish could transfer my grades to my online gradebook Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Socrative is a great tool for in-class low-stakes formative assessment. It allows for the students to gauge their understanding and the instructor to gauge how the class is doing over all. Do they get it and can move on or do we need to re-cover some things? It is very easy to use and can be moved into and out of multiple times during the class time without disruption.

On the administrative side, the only problem I have is that the scores cannot be bulk downloaded. You have to download each quiz separately. If you have multiple small quizzes per day then it can take a *long* time to download all of the grades into your grade book. Why is there no option to download grades from multiple quizzes at once? I'd give a 10/10 if this were resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I improve time management by taking attendance and a review (check-for-understanding) of the previous discussion at the beginning of each class. I can make any assessment and assign them to several classes, as well as, with my fellow teachers as common assessments. I have built up a quiz-bank for the next school year. I love the Latex feature for writing equations in Chemistry and Physics. I also like the ability to add an image or diagram for each question or a series of questions. I like the display for students taking the test of the Socrative App more than the web-based layout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Socrative should "refresh" with the name of students and their "Progress" as default with "Show Answers" and "Score" off. We don't want to embarrass students, who get the wrong answers, but I always need to refresh my screen to see who is not yet on the test. I want a report per student since they are preregistered uses so I can show these to parents easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
