Tech Tips
I teach in a 1:1 school where each student has a laptop. We use Canvas as our Learning Management system, which offers a lot of interactive tools. I have used the following resources to supplement our LMS.
Interactive
Nearpod - Create a slideshow with prompts where students can type or draw responses, take a quiz, and more.
Socrative - Students respond to questions. Their responses show up anonymously on the projector.
GoFormative - Get live results and give live feedback while students respond to questions.
Kahoot - Students respond to multiple choice questions with a game show feel.
Quizizz - Similar to Kahoot, but it is student-paced rather than teacher-paced.
ClassKick - Students respond by drawing, making audio recordings, or writing. They can raise a virtual hand to ask for help from teacher or peers.
