How does the technology allow the student to focus on the assignment/activity/ goals with less distraction (Time on Task).

# data[].attributes.body
Making videos is very engaging, but they must be directed to contain content and appropriate academic language- otherwise it is just a fun activity- also, if others are doing the same thing, it is hard to zero in on your own video, from what I've experienced.

Can the technology motivate students to start the learning process.

# data[].attributes.body
With the widespread use of Youtube and other video sites, kids are drawn to document everything, and to them, it seems more real that way. I short, making vids is almost a zeitgeist.

How does the technology cause a shift in the behavior of the student, where  they move from passive to active social learners (through co-use or coengagement).

# data[].attributes.body
Not only does having to make a vid imply that a student must participate, WEVIDEO also has collaborative video making and editing.

How does the technology tool allow the student to develop or demonstrate a  more sophisticated understanding of the learning goals or content (using higher-order thinking skills) ?

# data[].attributes.body
It depends on the content, and how much competence the student has bothered to gain. It did not get a zero, because having to make a video forces the student to get their facts straight, their ducks in a row, etc. on the content. They just may not go into the type of depth that they could with just the tech app and without a director or teacher there to ask guiding questions.

How can the technology create supports (scaffolds) to make it easier to  understand concepts or ideas (e.g. differentiate, personalize or scaffold learning)

# data[].attributes.body
The app can be used by teachers and instructors to do flipped lessons, or blended learning.

# data[].attributes.body
How can the technology create paths for the student to demonstrate their  understanding of the learning goals in a way that they could not do with  traditional tools.

# data[].attributes.body
All students prefer different paths of learning, and some get into the habits of book learning, note taking, and discourse. These paths, deemed more traditional, can work just as well as visual ones, and sometimes, they even lend themselves to superior language development in the domains of reading and writing.

How does the technology create opportunities for the student to learn outside of  their typical school day

# data[].attributes.body
They can use WeVideo on any modern device, anywhere. Most of our students have access to the internet outside of school, if only at the library or at friends' and relatives' homes

# data[].attributes.body
How does the technology create a bridge between the student's school learning  and their everyday life experiences (connects learning goals with real life experiences).

# data[].attributes.body
WeVideo. like a blank piece of paper, is what you make out of it. It doesn't necessarily create the connection bridge, but it allows for it if students are prompted or inspired to make and tell a school-lesson-to-life connection.

# data[].attributes.body
How does the technology allow the student to build authentic life soft skills,  which they can use in their everyday lives.

# data[].attributes.body
No one wants to look like a fool. So, by being on camera, compounded with being entrusted with presenting information and discoveries, students, and really, all people, tend to put their best stuff forward. We see this on social media, as well as on Wevideo.  Additionally, when students are confused, they can refer to classmates' videos to get that "100th monkey effect " knowledge, kind of like a trend that helps everyone know how to do something better.
(Wait, maybe I'm mixing this up with Flipgrid)

This just slid into home as an exceptional app for learning, as rated by  Triple E​ Evaluation Rubric Evaluating Apps and Websites for Learning Potential by Liz Kolb - University of Michigan--GO BLUE!!!

It's biscuits, it's gravy, yeeah- but it is not intuitive enough for me to figure out how to make boss videos like A Wiseman's North Cove Elementary announcements...and who really wants to take that kind of time?
