Who is it for?
This is an assessment based upon the new national curriculum Magnets and Electromagnets topic. Suitable for KS3 but could also be used at KS4 for a pre-topic assessment.
What is included?
This resource is a carefully designed, multiple choice quiz, that assesses depth of knowledge.
There are two ways to use the resource.
Firstly, it can be manually marked within a couple of minutes, by students.
Secondly, it can be marked using the free Quick Key App for android and IOS. Data is collected within seconds using the teacher's mobile phone or tablet, and results visible immediately as well as consolidated in an Excel Spreadsheet. The data in this form is exceptionally useful, teachers are able to assess progress in a matter of minutes, and address misconceptions immediately. I've been using this app for a very long time and can't recommend it highly enough.
Feedback tasks can be generated in either little report forms or as a whole class spread sheet that can be RAG rated by outcome.

Give the students the quiz document attached (I find that they work best in pairs).
Once they have completed it (about 30 minutes) scan in their answer sheet (takes about 2 seconds per student) using the app (android and apple).
Using the question analysis function which is immediately available, see which questions they have done worst the in and spend 10 minutes or so going over that aspect of the quiz. Alternatively, you can tell students which questions they have wrong and refer them back to their text books to take notes as an EBI.
