A1: I am excited about using technology in the "Activities and Materials" section in the instruction rubric. I look forward to using #TedEd and #Flocabulary to make the ELA class more engaging to students. I also think it would be useful to use a website such as #TooNoisy
A1: My authentic assessment is a group project where students must create their own dystopian society. Here, students must explore economics, societal and culture outlooks, and historical context. This would be a group project where individuals each take part! #ap3040
concentration camp. I would also try to find the Oprah interview with the author where he describes his time there. This would help students really feel and understand the enormity of evil that existed under Hitler and Nazi Germany. #ap3040
A2: I would promote different perspectives in the classroom by using virtual reality in Google Expeditions or Google Earth. For example, in ELA, students could read "Night" by Elie Weisel and take a virtual tour of Germany to visual what it might have been like to live at a
why would it work or not work in real life?" This question could guide students to think critically about society and compare/contrast to a fictional society. They could come up with a song, game, video, or presentation to explain and answer. #ap3040
A1: PBL allows students to take center stage in the classroom. The student-centered approach uses metacognition to get students thinking critically when there is a real-life problem. A teacher in the ELA class can pose the question: "What would a dystopian society look like and
This helps save time for families who might have one household computer & two or three kids who have to do remote learning. For example: Instead of assigning a persuasive speech via Flipgrid, Ss could have the option to simply type it up on a Google doc & send it in. #ap3040
A2: With all of the technology options available, it can get complicated, time consuming & frustrating for students & parents doing remote learning. Teachers can use a simple Google Doc for students with limited access or capabilities on the internet.
with reading or pronouncing words can use it to follow along. The student can pause and search for the word definition before moving on. This can save a lot of time for them especially when a teacher is not standing right there for them to ask! #ap3040
A1: I watched the Google video that explained a LOT of Chrome features. #Chromevox is great for students who have vision loss. It's text-to-speech feature allows students who have vision impairments to work online. I think this feature is also great bc any student who struggles

@MrsMHatfield Your binder has a great start! I also think #screencastify is a good app for screen recording and making lessons online. It would be a good tool for students who need additional help. I am excited to look into Educreations for my own class. #ap3040
@MsMorganMusic This brings back many elementary memories! I think the space in the front of the stands is good for movement such as dancing, instruments, or soloists! #ap3040
Engaging in the discussion. The teacher could simply remain on the #zoom call to monitor the environment and make sure students are using the zoom call appropriately and positively. #ap3040
A2: An app that I would like to use in my classroom is #zoom. Zoom allows students to meet anytime and anywhere before or after class. Students can work together on projects and communicate much easier through #zoom. Teachers can also monitor the environment without actively
