Teaching: EdTech Style
A new twist on old thoughts
Student Response Cards
Have you been using student response cards, and getting a little bored of them? You have colored, lettered, true & false, yes & no but now out of ideas. Below is a great new tech tool for you that takes a spin on this idea. But first, for those who haven't used response cards, a quick synopsis.
Traditional Method
Student response cards are a tool to use for formative assessment. It is a quick check to gauge student learning. Use it to your advantage because it requires participation simultaneously from all students not just a select few. Response cards are flexible to grade level and content area. Students pinch, show, or hold the answer up facing the teacher.
