Technology in Our Classroom by Lisbeth Lopez-hernandez https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l Made with a wink and a smile en-us 2020-06-30 01:23:15 UTC 2026-01-17 11:31:11 UTC hello@padlet.com Google Classroom (GC) asantosv2 https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646177158 - I learned how to create a GC for the first time. It's a great resource to consolidate and organize assignments for our students and present grades to the students for their knowledge. 
- There's also a lot of extensions from GC that one can use to enhance the experience from this site.
- It's also great that you can attach links from other google suites very easily since it can be integrated and accessed from the classroom quite clearly.  For example, I can easily incorporate the google form we made in module 2 just by clicking new assignment, then "add," and finally selecting the form and posting it. 
- Also, PearDeck has a function where one can add an assignment you make on it into your GC, which is now easily linked for my students to find.]]> 2020-07-02 17:15:19 UTC https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646177158 PearDeck llopezhe https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646197297 -Presentations can allow for students to interact with the slides and interact with their peers and teachers
-Teachers can poll students or survey what they already know about a topic before starting to teach it through written responses or drawing.
-As you introduce a new lesson using google slides, you can integrate questions that will help students reflect on what they are learning, see if they can apply it to a problem, or figure out if they still have questions or are confused
-the reflections can range from multiple choice to students writing a sentence or two about what is going on as the teacher is introducing a new concept]]> 2020-07-02 17:41:45 UTC https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646197297 Kahoot llopezhe https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646197435 Interactive
- A Kahoot activity allows students to engage with their peers as they review a certain topic (For instance, a math review after learning some lessons will help the teacher see if students are understanding the material)
Check In
-It is a great way for teachers to introduce themselves to the students on the first week of school. If you expect students to open up about themselves, you have to do it first
-You can see students that are participating and you can create activities for students to discuss with their peers

- There are different types of question that you can ask that help provide better insight to the kind of questions asked. For example, if I want to gauge how my students are doing, I could use a scale question to get see this. If I want a better idea, I can use a short answer response. For other questions, I can include gifs and pictures to highlight my points. 
- Best is that the data is easily displayed for me to view and refer. Also, I can attach google forms easily into google classroom as well

- One way to make students laugh or motivate them can be with a meme that they create and that you also create to show that you can also do the work like them
- students need encouragement throughout the day and weeks
- engaging students to interact with online resources can increase their confidence in the technology world
Google Form
-one way to check in is by providing students with a form and questions asking about how they are doing, how school is going, how they feel about the class, what they like to do, and asking for feedback

-It serves as a hub of updated resources for students as well as parents and other teachers
- a teacher needs to strive to update the website in order for students to have a current syllabus and worksheets that will help them with concepts they are learning and reviewing
- a website allows a teacher to share information about themselves that students can refer back to 
- a website can include resources for the students to review concepts and resources for parents ]]> 2020-07-02 20:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646306056 Padlet llopezhe https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646325931 -As students join a Padlet conversation they are able to read each other's response to a warm-up, a check in question, or even answer a prompt that a teacher asks. 
-Padlet can be used for students to create their own topic conversations rather than have teachers give it to them. Then other students can expand on ones they find interesting
-Sometimes Padlet can be used for introductions or a group response that allows the students and teachers to see what they have to say about a certain topic.]]> 2020-07-02 20:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/llopezhe/2qwwoyzmd925o58l/wish/646325931
