Here’s Pod 7’s presentation!
We decided to go an interesting route for our Ed Tech inquiry. We initially started with a different inquiry question (how has technology evolved within the elementary classroom since we were there) than our current one, but got bored of it quite quickly, realized that this was hard to answer as we all had different experiences, and made observations within our Link2Practice classroom that almost contradicted our question.
This is why we came up with a new inquiry question of: How can we use already existing platforms within a classroom in a creative and innovative way?
Our main goal was to explore this by coming up with a resource that both teachers and students could use to facilitate the learning environment. We decided to use Google Forms as our main platform and looked into different ways that it could be used within the classroom. We found some fun and engaging ways that Google Forms and the features it comes with could be utilized, for the teacher and the students. In this video, we provide a how to instruction on making a quiz which connects to two of our activities that we will be doing in person as part of our Ed Tech presentation.
Enjoy the entertaining video!
