Goal

To increase classroom engagement by being able to monitor student progress and participation in the classroom without having to go back and forth to my computer station. I can be much more readily available and timely in class.  

 

What will be done with my students

I use Google Docs and Slides for presentations in the classroom and need to be able to see student progress and give feedback at their desk. With Corona Virus, I cannot place my computer on their desk. I can show them on an Ipad what they need to work on as well as mark up their papers for feedback .
I need to be able to film video presentations for my AICE Cambridge Global Perspectives students so they can see areas of strength and needs for improvement before their final exam presentations.

I also want to purchase Classroom research and discussion software called Parlay to use in round table discussions to develop research, debate and speaking skills. This will be used in my Global Perspectives, Government/ Economics and History classes.  

 

Benefits to my students

I can run the classroom apps at the student desktop and show them by marking up their actual research papers and presentations. I can also monitor student progress in Parlay for discussion and who needs a "nudge" to participate. Games can be activated and the next questions can be started with me being mobile.


I am really looking to increase feedback and engagement in the classroom.
