Explain Everything and Stick Around

2/12/2015

0 Comments

 
Yesterday I taught the teachers on my campus the new and amazing features on Explain Everything.   When they saw the SAVE function they just about jumped out of their seats.  As we went through all of the buttons and options they began thinking of ways to use in their classrooms.  Some examples were: filming themselves working math problems correctly and using the laser pointer (shout out to all the new options) to highlight the important steps, having students work problems and record their verbal directions, and creating common craft type videos to explain the roles of people in our community (1.14(E))

I also taught teachers the relatively new app Stick Around by Tony Vincent.  Many of my teachers were very excited about using this app.  They had many ideas on how to use the sorting template, the larger/smaller reminded them of teaching money, others wanted to compare features of two different stories.   When speaking about his new app, Tony Vincent talked about how powerful it is to have students create their own puzzles and share with classmates for reviewing before tests.   Dylam Wiliam also notes the power of students creating their own assessments, in his book, Embedded Formative Assessments.  After reviewing TCEA materials shared from last week, I was inspired to make Rubrics in Google Forms. Here is a rubric I made for students to evaluate their use of Stick Around.
