My Access Report Reaction

After reading information about all the things students are able to do with My Access I came to the conclusion that it is an excellent program to use. It provides them with opportunities to assess themselves, by using the scoring system, which provides instant feedback. It is an excellent tool that should be used in our schools because teachers can also rely on this system to assess student learning. Sometimes it is hard for us as teachers to grade all the paper work and submit it on time .
Our work would be easier if a system like this is implemented in our districts.
It is also important to mention that ESL students benefit greatly from the program because it encourages them to revise, and positively criticize their work . Online portfolios are also included in the program, where students, teachers, and administrators have unlimited access to assignments to monitor students progress. I would love to learn more about this program to use it in my classroom for specific assignments.
