Easycritique is a mobile app with built-in scoring rubrics for teachers and adjudicators to complete performance-based assessments on iPad. Ideal for use in the classroom and alternative spaces, Easycritique is the perfect app for evaluating performances and providing constructive feedback to participants.

Start by creating a group, and then add new participants. Next, go to a screening form and the app will auto-fill the names and email addresses of your performers. Then when you've finished the critique, the app will save the screening form and if you'd like, you can also email the evaluation to performers, to other adjudicators or judges, or to yourself.

Easycritique supports teacher effectiveness in the classroom, and it provides artifacts and evidence of student growth from one activity to another, or for the whole class.

Easycritique makes it easy to write objective, performance-based assessments, and it's also an excellent way to establish anecdotal evidence on teacher effectiveness. It's the perfect tool for teachers and directors to give performers valuable feedback that helps them understand their strengths and overcome their weaknesses, thereby improving their talent and the quality of the educational theatre experience.

Once you download the app and create an account, you can log in on the web at Easycritique.com to manage your participant data online. You can upload or edit participant information, reorganize groups, or download a CSV-file containing all of your saved participant information. Your changes online will automatically be changed in the app, so this is a great option for those who have large amounts of participant data to enter or edit.

Easycritique was created by the Colorado State Thespians as part of its mission to promote and strengthen theatre arts in education. Because theatre is an essential component in our schools and in our society, Colorado State Thespians is proud to offer a valuable tool that supports students and teachers in their quest for excellence and the advancement of educational theatre.

We hope you enjoy the app. We are working on several new features so please watch for future updates, which will provide more power and extended capabilities to the app. Have suggestions or comments? Please email docjseller@gmail.com - we love to hear from you!
