BlackoutBars: Chrome Extension for Spoiler-Free Grading on GoFormative
BlackoutBars is a Chrome extension developed by Inovāt ED that enhances the grading experience on GoFormative. This helpful tool allows teachers to display student progress without revealing the correctness of their answers. With BlackoutBars, teachers can share student progress on the smartboard or with individual students without giving away the answers.
By hiding the colored bars that indicate if a student's answer is right or wrong, BlackoutBars prevents students from cycling through the possible answer choices or guessing until the bar turns green next to their name. This ensures that students are engaging with the material and not simply relying on visual cues to determine the correct answers.
BlackoutBars is an excellent solution for promoting academic integrity in the classroom. By neutralizing the visual cues that reveal the correctness of student responses, teachers can ensure that students are truly understanding and learning the material. This extension provides an answer-agnostic way to monitor student progress, making it an invaluable tool for educators.
