Reorganize files in an itslearning folder
To me, this is a definite improvement over the old up...up...up...!
Classroom Visits
I will stay 10-15 minutes max (unless you request otherwise) and I won't come in if it looks like you're giving a test. I certainly won't make it into every classroom, but I hope to visit 20 or so per school. If you want to be on my MUST VISIT list, fill out THIS FORM so that I can be in contact before I come out.
Less-Paper Spotlight: Digital Notes
Did you know that both Nearpod and PearDeck (an add-on for Google Slides) allows YOU to control notes on student devices to get feedback from EACH student as you go through the presentation AND for students to take their own notes about what you SAY that might not be on the slide? Those personal notes are then saved to their Google Drive for them to access later!
To learn more, go HERE for Nearpod or HERE for PearDeck (note that this is a Premium feature). Or, just email / call / Tweet me!
Check out the full Challenge Board HERE. To play along, click the blue "Use Template" button to make your own copy, then share it back to me. After you complete each challenge, add a checkmark image to the square that you did and a comment sharing how it went!
