Tech tools for the classroom
FlipGrid
FlipGrid is a great resource for having students create a short (90 seconds) video using the webcam of their Chromebooks. It is a good tool for discussion starters, learning reflection, or formative evaluation to check understanding. Here's a resource explaining more and the link to sign up for an educator account.
Recap
Recap is also a great tool for formative assessment. Ask students a question for a typed response or a video response and check for understanding. This link explains a little about how the student and teacher accounts differ. Check out the video below for more information about Recap. You can join with your Google account at https://app.letsrecap.com/teacher/register
