So this class was all about using the UTIPS system.  I have to be honest, this is probably the class that I have gotten the least from, just because it's pretty much completely inapplicable to Kindergarten.  #1, my students can't read, so if they were to take a test this way it would have to be one on one, which I don't have time for.  #2, I feel like I can get a better understanding of their knowledge in other ways because they wouldn't get what they were supposed to do.  #3, it would take a whole class time to just get them logged in! 
Haha....anyways, I did learn a bunch though.  I never really understood what Utips was before, or why it was used.  I now understand that it is a good way to get questions that relate to the core and put together an assessment.  I liked how it showed different graphs to communicate the results.  I also really enjoyed taking the test from the 5th grade core!  I have forgotten a lot!!  :)
