Next on my blog challenge: What technology would I like to use this year?
As a high school teacher in a 1:1 district, we get to have Macbooks available to us. So this clearly allows me the opportunity to try new tech in the classroom. But what do I try first? How to choose what will work for my students? I've gone most of the year using G-Suite in an effort to make my classroom a more "student-centered" classroom. I've branched out to use #BookSnapsREAL and #Flipgrid where my students would be highly engaged and the activities were ALL ABOUT THEM! So what would I like to use that I haven't already? Hyperdocs! Having to use hyperdocs in some PDs I've attended, I can appreciate the ease with which all the information I need to get started is readily available at my fingertips. This is what I want for my students. To anticipate what they would need and have this readily available for them really takes a lot of the pressure off me, and puts the accountability on them. They can work at their pace, and I am more available to support those students that may need it. So, I am in the process of creating my first hyperdoc. Hopefully, if I can anticipate their questions and needs correctly to provide them with enough material so that they'll be able to use it to guide them in this next phase of our unit, Latin American Art! I won't know until I try! :)
