https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9 What is app smashing? How do you allow students to app smash? Why app smash? Differentiation built in! Scaffolding built in through student choice. Meant for Persona: PreK-8 Teacher of any subject. As our school moves to push technology and digital literacy across the board, it is important for teachers to have resources that help both with SAMR as well as meeting the IEP needs for differentiation and scaffolding. This is for teachers that are busy cramming everything they have to for testing and curriculum. en-us 2017-10-07 11:56:33 UTC 2021-05-26 14:08:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/File.png bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903327 App smashing is utilizing different apps or products for a specific purpose to then combine with other apps or products to create one project.

Moovly is so much fun! If you have even no talent in tech, or creativity you can create the most incredibly fun and educational animated story with content aligned to your curriculum. Have students create their own animated masterpieces to teach each other about certain subjects! Anyone can do it, and the end result is always really nice!]]> 2017-10-07 12:28:40 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903503 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903572 Using technology in the classroom.

Just used a QR code and code reader for my students to escape the library with BreakoutEDU! QR codes are not dead, and in fact super fun for students to track clues and not waste space with sticking them up all over the library or classroom!]]> 2017-10-07 12:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903670 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903715 Here are apps and sites that work for both laptops and tablets.]]> 2017-10-07 12:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903715 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903790 Everything you learned 2.0
As an educator we all had to learn about Bloom's Taxonomy, but now you can apply Bloom's Wheel with app smashing to hit on all of the different areas! It doesn't get more educational than that, plus tech tools are super fun, and there are a variety in every area that still allows for student differentiation, scaffolding, and learning styles!]]> 2017-10-07 12:32:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903790 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903823 Math can even be app smashed! Math works for about half of the student population. Make it work for everyone with new and visually pleasing ways to hit at everyone's learning style and level with really neat, educational AND fun apps and tech tools.]]> 2017-10-07 12:33:12 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903823 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903891 Why even bother with app smashing?
Differentiation? Check!
Scaffolding? Check!
Different learning styles? Check!
Different interests? Check
Instead of forcing children in a lecture like setting to use just one boring app or tech tool that only a handful of students understand, you can allow students the freedom they need to grow in making decisions based on their needs and levels to create projects they are proud of including every single student in your class! Everyone wins, and you are not stuck looking at a million of the same static end project.]]> 2017-10-07 12:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903891 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903960 Anyone can do it. Especially students! This is where tech meets innovation, creativity, and real world skills where students can utilize for their careers and further education. Take one app, then choose another, use both end products together to create an even better project!]]> 2017-10-07 12:35:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194903960 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194904021 If you have BreakoutEDU you can app smash with it! BreakoutEDU is like an escape room, that can be done literally anywhere. It comes with its own supplies and endless games in which students work together to follow clues to unlock real locks in order to get into the box and escape that situation. Even better students can use breakoutEDU with tech to create an even more enriching experience. QR codes and code readers, tablets, smart phones, laptops, even desktops! The sky is the limit, have your students approach the escape as if they need to use flipgrid journals like travel logs, or even create an iMovie commercial about the breakoutEDU experience for the next class! Endless incredible possibilities.]]> 2017-10-07 12:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194904021 bremekamps https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194904122 Chatterpix takes a drawing, face, or object and lets it speak!]]> 2017-10-07 12:37:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bremekamps/1srgro5m2jr9/wish/194904122
