What is your name?
Kevin Braaten
What is your job title? Where do you work?
Teacher; Berea-Midpark HS in Ohio
How long have you been using Edcite?
[I have been using Edcite for] about a year; it was introduced to us last year by our Curriculum Department as a way to prepare our students for the Ohio End-of-Course-Exam in American Government.
What problem does Edcite solve for you?
Edcite allows us to focus on content and allows our students to practice similar test items that they will see on the state test.
What are your goals for using Edcite this school year?
- Create more formative assessments.
- Create our own questions.
- Continue to develop skills in using Edcite.
What else would you like to share?
We were the only subject area to use Edcite last year, and consequently, we were also the only subject in our entire district that passed the standard on our district report card!!
