Look through some of the sites below. I'm sure you will find something to fit your tech needs in your classroom! :)
Kathy Schrock has tons of great ideas. . . http://www.schrockguide.net/ http://edorigami.wikispaces.com/home http://cellphonesinlearning.blogspot.com/ http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/ http://interactivenets.wikispaces.com/ http://eduscapes.com/tap/index.htm This is not a resource that I have tried, but it looks really interesting and user friendly. If you’ve already experimented with flipping your classroom, it may be time to take it to the next level. With Versal, you can create full courses that live online, using any combination of text, video, downloadable PDFs, multiple choice quizzes, and short response questions. But it doesn’t stop there: Versal also offers a drag-and-drop menu of items that would normally require advanced coding, but don’t in Versal: interactive diagrams, Thinglink images, Quizlet flashcards, timelines, LaTeX math equations, music tools, and even an interactive chess game can be added into a course if the teacher wants it there. You can also search other teachers' courses and find content to meet your classroom needs. Accountability is built right in: When you set up a course, you can track the progress of learners who are taking it, with the ability to see which students have taken which lesson and how far along they are. Learner reports also show scores on quizzes. Give this a try and let us know what you think! One key to improving student writing is to have students write more often. But paperwork is hard to manage, you are limited in how much feedback you can provide, and students often have trouble thinking of ideas. Write About solves these problems, providing students with an online space to write on high-interest topics and get feedback from their peers and teachers. The free option allows for 40 students and a limited number of posts; paid packages offer greater capacity for students and posts. https://illuminations.nctm.org/
This is an amazing website for teachers and students. It is aligned to the NCTM Standards and has content engaging and applicable to all grade levels. Included in this website are a multitude of lesson plans for teachers in K-12 that can be searched by strand or standard. It also includes TONS of interactive tools and games for students and teachers to use that are appropriate to each grade level. Give it a try and let me know what you think! :) I highly recommend this resource. Very easy to use and has the potential to motivate those students that have a difficult time coming up with ideas to write about.
http://storybird.com/ This website features the ability of students to write short stories, poems, or longer chapter books using a variety of given artwork. Students also have the ability to share and collaborate with peers on single stories. Stories can be published "online" or with a paid subscription, they can be printed out. This site also allows teachers the ability to read and give feedback to students on their stories. Teachers can input a "class" of students or students can join on their own. |
