This Web2.0 tool I found is called YacaPaca. This site allows a teacher to organize a class list and create tests, quizzes, and surveys for each student. The students each have their own log in and can design their own page. Once the teacher has added an assignment to their page they can take it. This allows you as a teacher to personalize some things for each student. Maybe one student needs more help in one area than another. This can give them more practice, while keeping the class engaged in their own lessons. Or you can test you kids all together on a unit you just finished. This site gives instant feedback to the students if they got answers right or wrong. It also allows you as a teacher to go and and see scores from your entire class in one window. This gives you almost no grading time, which is always a nice break for teachers :).
You can find quizzes that are pre-made and assign them to your students or create your own.
You can design your front page to explain directions to each student before they get started along with letting them know of any time limits they have to answer the questions.
Tool can be used for any subject. This one is a multiplication test used to help the students work on their speed of answering questions.
This quiz is working on root words in language arts.
