* Posts can be anonymous.]]> 2017-03-28 15:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163156346 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256148 1. It is nice to have them accessible online and the ability to type in the spaces provided.
2. The audio reader is nice for students to be able to use. 
3.  Unable to see student progress without exporting it. 
4. Many students requested hard copies so the online didn't help cut back on paper.

2. Turning in assignments is complicated and not user friendly. This makes feedback difficult.

3. Many students prefer to use the paper copy. Accessing the documents while writing the essay response makes it complicated especially when using the iPad.

3. The website provides greater access to different DBQ's than the standard ones that were accessible in prior curriculum guides. ]]> 2017-03-28 20:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256257 kightmel https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256281 1. The audio feature is a great resource to use with all learners at any point throughout the DBQ writing process. 
2. Differentiation is made easy through the resource.
3. My students and I enjoyed the variety of documents/sources. 

4. I wish there was a Grading feature right on the DBQ Online site. I have had students type their final drafts in a Google Doc or write it traditionally on paper so their final work is not lost. Deleted work throughout the program became very discouraging for students. ]]> 2017-03-28 20:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256281 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256282 1. Audio feature is great for lower level readers
2. Ability to edit and differentiate document organizers is a nice feature
3. Students dislike the editing tools like highlighter and how text boxes move
4. Students would like the ability to write of the documents like Google Classroom document editor
5. Ability to type answers in text boxes and auto save is useful
6. Students like the essay builder feature]]> 2017-03-28 20:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256282 bowsejas https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256288 I really enjoy the online features. Students can be assigned specific versions of the DBQ based on their ability levels.

Students can easily access  tools to help them mark up the documents and make annotations.

Students who need accommodations can have the text read to them. 

One problem that I have had with the online version is student work being "deleted". Uploading the document to Google Classroom for submission is also a tedious process.   ]]> 2017-03-28 20:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256288 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256414 1. No more papers going green and saving trees.
2. Text to speech feature has really been beneficial to students.
3. Manipulating the graphic organizers and adding features on the iPads has been a struggle.]]> 2017-03-28 20:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256414 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256547 2017-03-28 20:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256547 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256570 I found the access to the document questions once finished difficult.  I copied them and moved them into classroom for easier access. 

]]> 2017-03-28 20:04:45 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256570 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256576 I really liked the extra features, such as text read aloud and the ability to mark the text/highlight. I had difficulties with students saving their work and work disappearing. It was nice not having a giant stack of packets!]]> 2017-03-28 20:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256576 stottbri https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256707 1) So many primary and secondary documents for my students to use on topic.
 2) Many different ways to help meet students at their learning levels.
3) Want someway to look at where students are at any given time.]]> 2017-03-28 20:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163256707 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163257986 1.  It is paperless so you save time copying and paper.
2.  Text to speech function is great for struggling learners.
3.  Use Pages/Showbie to submit final essay.]]> 2017-03-28 20:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/163257986 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/164215328 Overall it was nice to be able to tailor specific questions for the docs depending on the student.  The audio function was also a nice perk.  Unfortunately, the functionality of the program on the iPads was very poor.  My students like to see their analyzed documents and the planner or the planner and essay at the same time but that was not possible (at least as far as I know) in the app.]]> 2017-04-03 01:39:13 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/164215328 longkat https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165004534 1.  I enjoy the online format and the ability to export the file(s) to Google.
2.  I wish there were an easier way to export documents or perhaps the ability to log in and view their responses. 
3. Topics that are tied to or more associated to our curriculum. ]]> 2017-04-05 20:52:53 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165004534 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165142778 1. Student work kept being deleted/the students did not like using the iPad to complete work
2. The text-to-speech feature was beneficial
3. Students were generally less-engaged with the online DBQ because they were frustrated with the iPad

In general, I like the online DBQ features and the fact that English is starting to use DBQs as well. However, in the future I will sign out a computer lab to use with the DBQ.]]> 2017-04-06 13:59:51 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165142778 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165165433 1. Lower students struggled with the typing. 
2. Online version did not allow students to turn individual documents in for grading.
3. It is difficult to get the finished essay as the students cannot print from their I-Pad so I had to use Google Classroom.
4. Having all of the DBQ's already online was nice and it saves paper. 
The text - to - speech feature is great for lower level students. I gave them a paper copy and had them use the read aloud feature to help with the reading. 
5. Some images were in color and all were easier to analyze on the online version.

]]> 2017-04-06 15:02:29 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165165433 rudyada https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165205633 1. Many students struggled to learn the technology- Too much time was spent teaching them to use the platform.
2. With having to teach students good historical writing, sourcing, analyzing and more there simply wasn't enough time to be teaching them how to use the APP too. Also Many students were constantly forgetting, losing or having dead IPADs. Paper copies proved to be more effective for most students.
3. Once students got the technology many of the tools were nice. 
4. Text to speech was beneficial for some students who have lower reading levels. 
5. Most students ended up preferring hard copies. ]]> 2017-04-06 16:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/165205633 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874653 1.  My Magnet and AVID students loved the online capabilities.  They preferred typing their response and the ease of the program.  My grade level students found it more challenging - they were begging me for paper copies by the end of the activity.
2. I love the ease of the technology and lack of paper. DBQ's can be huge and it's nice to store it all electronically.  Students found the link to be very accommodating and the site is very user friendly.
3. I wish the exporting were more "share friendly" - it doesn't work amazing with Showbie...]]> 2017-04-18 20:01:02 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874653 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874804 1. Students struggled toggling back and forth from their answer text box and the resources. 
2. Paired well with Google Docs and Google Classroom. 
3. Great resources. Text to speech worked well for students with accommodations. 

Overall, I believe this resource is much more authentic than the paper DBQ's we worked with in the past. I've enjoyed the opportunity to blend this tool with Google Classroom.]]> 2017-04-18 20:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874804 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874934 1. Difficult for students to move through the site on the iPad
2. Would like to get answers and analysis for documents, not just essay
3. Would like other assignments that students could complete - not just always an essay

I like the idea but with the use of the iPad it would be helpful that it would be more seamless]]> 2017-04-18 20:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166874934 https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166875346 1.) Difficult to use on iPad.
2.) For a teacher that likes to provide students options on how to do things, some students do like hard copies, exporting docs. need to be easier.
3.) Highlighting tool was nice.]]> 2017-04-18 20:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/longkat/DBQOnline/wish/166875346
