@alyssaariel95@MaddernBryan@doctor2pi @SarahCeja03 Hi Alyssa. I can see how useful Google Forms would have been in school. There were many instances where the teacher could have easily set up a form and gotten quick and easy feedback from the students. It could have been used for so many things, and it is really easy to use.
@DaniAllen327 @MaddernBryan @SarahCeja03 @Duncannedd Hi Danielle. Using Google Earth/Maps can be a way to teach about certain locations. It can also add some background for some topics in history classes. A game that I have found some students enjoy is GeoGuessr. It takes the player around the world and they guess were they are.
@MaddernBryan @SarahCeja03 A4) Flipgrid gives so much versatility to every assignment. It can be used to reflect, present, or review. One high school project of mine required a typed reflection, but I believe that Flipgrid would have made this much better. @DrEddiesClass#csubted#csubedte4200
@jenny_bones28@Ststansberry@joceperezCSUB@DrEddiesClass Hi Jennifer. This sounds great! I believe that any tool that uses images and scaffolds can be a great tool to use for ELL students. The fact that this program does all of that and even provides information on what interventions may be needed, shows that this is a good tool.
@kassidy_mason2@Ststansberry@joceperezCSUB Hi Kassidy! I have never heard of Lexia before, but I am interested in seeing how it combines speaking, listening, and grammar. Is this platform specifically targeted towards ELL students, or is it for all student populations? Thank you.
@Ststansberry@joceperezCSUB A3) Technologies that promote student interaction with one another are what benefit ELL's. This is why I think Kahoot is a good tool for ELL's. Kahoot has a simple interface and often times when used, will promote peer interaction in class. @DrEddiesClass#csubted#csubedte4200
@tom_karnes@CsubMadelyns A2) In high school we had a teacher that was going to show us a PowerPoint video through some Chromebooks. However, we only had 3 laptops in the class, so we had to get in big groups to see/hear what the computer was saying. It was not fun.

@ChristinaVlaho4@tom_karnes@CsubMadelyns@MaddernBryan Hi Christina! It was definitely hard for younger students during the first months of distance learning. I think it is a lot that we expected from those children and their parents to just quickly shift into online schooling.
@giseleadriana21@tom_karnes@CsubMadelyns@DrEddiesClass Hi Giselle! I can actually relate to this. During one of my online math courses, I was having a difficult time uploading and submitting these types of files. It was very frustrating at first.
@arnie_gonzo88@doctor2pi@Duncannedd Hi Arnie. I also really enjoy Kahoot. It definitely adds an element of fun in the classroom. In terms of Socrative, I don't think I have experience with it, but I will give it a try.
@doctor2pi A1) Im a big fan of Google Forms. There are multiple ways in which you can quickly assess what students think of something, and its easy to use for teacher/student. You can setup questions in different manners and results are well organized. @DrEddiesClass#csubted#csubedte4200
