Tech Tools

These are tools that I use fairly regularly in the classroom.  I will post a schedule of when I am using what for teachers to come and observe, or feel free to reach out and I can find a time to come and model them for you in your room.

Mind Mapping

These tools help students visualize their thinking in a very fluid way.  moving their ideas around, connecting and disconnecting  them as their thoughts develop.
Popplet
Popplet is simple and easy to use.  Click the link to see a little video I made on how I use it.

Coggle
Coggle is more complicated but has more options visually.  Click the link to see an example from my class.

Google Tools


Google has a seemingly endless array of tools which can help in the classroom.  These are the ones that I use on the regular.

Google Classroom + Doctopus & Goobric

This is an obvious one - we have all used it at least in our PDs, but it does a lot more than most of us use it for. When you add the extensions Doctopus and Goobric (available on the google Chrome Store) assessing work attached to a Google Classroom assignment becomes 100 times easier.  Check out this link to a blog called Hello Teacher Lady which has a lovely explanation of the benefits. (I also recommend following her - she is pretty awesome!)

Google Forms + AutoCrat

Google Forms is a really easy way to create surveys which will give you immediate data.  All answers are compiled by Google in a spreadsheet which is easy to read and use.  AutoCrat is an add-on which helps you make rubrics.  Again, beautifully explained by the creator of the blog, Hello, Teacher Lady
