11/13/2017

The week before a break can be a tough time in the classroom. Depending on student focus and attendance is a risk. Why not try something different to keep students engaged and provide opportunities for those taking their vacation early?
Here are some tools that give students voice including some digital resources that can also provide opportunity for absent students to be involved:
  • Padlet: pose questions with real-time answers, vote on responses, brainstorm together, KWL
  • Today’s Meet: create a question and see the live responses, a backchannel during presentations, videos, discussions, lectures
  • Flipgrid: video responses to questions or scenarios, formal or informal feedback, respond to each other
  • Sketchnotes: visual note-taking and journaling
  • Blogs: journaling, reflection, evaluation; Weebly and EduBlogs do provide private classroom options
  • Surveys: Google Forms, Microsoft Forms
  • Socratic Seminars, Spiderweb Discussions, Fishbowl

Interested in more information on incorporating student voice? Check out the November 6 newsletter for more information and ideas.
