      I recently started exploring this app myself after finding it on the app store.  It is helpful to see someone else's use and get ideas! I think the most difficult part is going to be the part sharing students' work with the teacher.
  • For the “Introduction to Skitch” 2-day lesson, I gave the students a choice board of activities. The students had fun creating treasure maps, Skitch selfies, classroom maps.

      Such a good idea.  My students would be able to complete the labeling part of this activity, as they are ESL students just learning vocabulary.

      A backchannel could be a really useful adaptation for SPED and EL students in mainstream classes who find themselves left behind in conversation

  • They create a blended environment where teachers and students engage in both physical and online conversations so that learning is no longer confined to a single means of communication or even an arbitrary class perio

      This solves the "I don't have enough time with my students during class" problem if students have access to conversations beyond the limits of a class period

  • A face-to-face conversation while simultaneously reading might have been a distraction. However, by typing their thoughts, all students contributed their ideas while each having the autonomy to work at his or her own pace.

      I especially like having an outlet for students to work at their own pace on something while still contributing to a conversation

      "The conversations were never lost" - this is a great point!  Students could read and re-read past conversations.  With a traditional speaking/listening conversation, it isn't possible to read at all, let alone re-read.

  • Charlie needed an alternative means to participate, and a backchannel would have provided him with that outlet.
  • a digital conversation that runs concurrently with a face-to-face activit
  • TodaysMeet would have let teachers create private chat rooms so that students could ask questions or leave comments during class. A Padlet wall might have fueled students to share their ideas as text, images, videos, and links posted to a digital bulletin board. The open response questions available in a student response system like Socrative or InfuseLearning could have become discussion prompts to give each student an opportunity to share his or her ideas before engaging in class discussion.

  • My essential idea after many rounds of brainstorming was that students would self-select their station work after analyzing their individual data and creating their own personalized weekly learning plan.
    • msdianehahn
      msdianehahn on 26 Jul 16
       
      We use iPads for games and other online learning apps on a regular basis.  Students have tracked their progress on apps only as far as getting so far = stickers/rewards.  Goal setting wasn't involved, nor were specific goals related to skills students needed to learn.  This could be a simple addition to our stations to make classroom learning with iPad apps more effective.

  • anonymous on 26 Jul 16
     
    Hi Diane: I am wondering, does your school support iPads for students in your class? or, is it required that they purchase their own. Is this an online class or a face-face class?
  • msdianehahn on 28 Jul 16
     
    We have a classroom set of iPads that are available. Students don't purchase them, the school got them through a grant.

  • While Linda Yollis has a fantastic classroom blog, her 366 Project is incredible. She has clear instructions for how students from around the world can submit their photos to be shared. These photos make great writing prompts, conversation starters, and can spur on so many ideas in the classroom.

  • For young people without a personal connection to an immigration story, these websites, games, multimedia news pieces, and more, can help put a human face on an abstract debate.

  • YouTube Task #5: The Search Showing a good video in a language class can immensely improve a typical lesson but the search can take a ton of time. This is where I spend the majority of my planning time because once I find a good one, it is the foundation for the entire lesson. I have 5 video searching tips to make it a little easier for you and… But wait! Let’s change this up a little. I want to add that this is how I show my STUDENTS to find great videos. The person doing all the work is doing all the learning. – A Wise Educator As soon as I can, I teach my students how to find relevant videos

  • There are a number of factors you need to consider when choosing which is right for your project, a Page or a group.

      I like the information given in this site.
  • Groups offer far more control over who gets to participate. Permissions settings make it possible for group admins to restrict access to a group, so that new members have to be approved. Access to a Page, however, can only be restricted by certain ages and locations. Again, this makes groups more like a private club

      This statement really helps simplify whether a page or a group is right for you. Based on this info, I think for teaching a group is best.
