How do I use TeacherMade to create online assignments?

Use files you already have in Google Drive
Save time when you use worksheets that you already have. Cassandra K. explains the process:

“I create handouts & worksheets quickly from existing worksheets in Google Drive. Sometimes I modify the existing worksheets to allow for better TeacherMade formatting when I create my worksheets.” It may seem like creating assignments can be a huge time suck. Still, Cassandra reasons, “that the time I spend on the front end of my lesson planning and student materials is more than I used to spend on materials creation when I was not formatting everything for the virtual student.” She says, “However, I am spending a lot less time on grading assignments on the backend of my planning.” Give TeacherMade a try today to see how much time you could be saving.”

Share and collaborate with other Teachers and colleagues
Teachers have always shared and supported one another. It’s our nature. TeacherMade allows Teachers to share and collaborate with other Teachers and colleagues. You can share your online worksheets just like you would in the traditional setting. Jennifer T says she “loves how it links to Google Classroom. And helps to keep me organized. My colleagues and I can share worksheets with each other, which is a HUGE timesaver.”

Craft a variety of question types effortlessly
Often Teachers have to water down online assignments because it can be too challenging to include the question types we want. TeacherMade gives you the flexibility to create the assignments you need. Chemistry Teacher Tiffany S. explains how she takes advantage of the different questions types on TeacherMade:

“I modify lab worksheets to incorporate free response answers, graph drawings, drop-down answers for pre-lab questions, and open responses for the lab analysis questions. I like that it gives students (and me) instant feedback and that I can control with questions that are graded and which are for my own review and more formative assessment questions. I also like to take some of the higher-level analysis questions and provide a space to put a numeric answer that is graded on accuracy but then leave an open response space for the explanation that I will formally assess.”

Keep assignments the same for your virtual and traditional students
It can be frustrating to recreate assignments you are handing out in your classroom for your online students. Not anymore with TeacherMade. Regina B. is required to deliver identical assignments for traditional and online classes. She says that TeacherMade: “was a time saver for me because it allowed me to bridge the gap between my students who had to do their work paper/pencil with the students who were completing their work online.” TeacherMade assignments replicate paper and pencil assignments.
