Sharing is Caring... Share a Teaching Tech Tool
We learn best from others, so let's build our network and continue our path to being forever learners. Please share your best teaching technology tool with other Hofius teachers on this Sharing is Caring Google Form! Look for your responses to appear in upcoming newsletters!
Sharing is Caring Tool 2: EdPuzzle from Valerie Boldt
Edpuzzle allows the teachers to assign videos to students, force them to watch the entire thing (prevents skipping), allows teachers to embed questions and notes, as well as tells the teacher how much the student did and grades the students work if it is multiple choice. I like to use it to screencastify "reteach" assignments and students who have to retest must complete the EdPuzzle reteach in order to complete the retest. Additionally, it is a great sub plan!
Thank you for sharing, Valerie!
