Flipgrid

-

Flipgrid is a tool that allows you to create grids to facilitate video discussions. In each grid, teachers can post questions or some assignments for their students, and these are called Topics. Then, students can post video responses. These grids can be shared with students or even with some other teachers' grids for collaborative learning. 

After signing up, teachers can create new Topics for students. They can arrange the amount of time that the videos should be(2-3 minutes or more).  Teachers can keep this grid special by allowing only the users with school's e-mail address. 

It's a great tool to use in online education. Online education seems boring for students mos of the time. Ensuring an interactive lesson is teachers' hands. Users can upload and edit video, add more clips, cut and segment as well as enhance with emojis and texts. So, essentially, a simple video editing tool can produce a powerful result, depending on how creative you want to be!    

Flipgrid can make students more interactive, creative and expressive. Teachers, with the help of Flipgrid, can listen to even the students who don't talk much in the classroom. Flipgrid is a great tool for foreign language education too. Students can find opportunities to talk in the target language when they need to post a video on grids.

Nearpod is a tool that can help teachers make the class interactive. Teachers can create interactive presentations that include contents like videos, pdfs and audios or activities like polls, tests, open ended questions, matching pairs and quizzes. Students can gain access to these presentations through links and codes that teachers share with them. Teachers can share these materials either as live participation or student-paced.     Here's an example of Nearpod presentation. This is a powepoint slide I created a while ago but I added some contents on it with the help of Nearpod. We can add time limit and state a point for each question. Before saving this interactive presentation, we can also preview it.  Teachers can assign homeworks to their students. Students can engage on their own time as well! Teachers can provide a student paced code and they can access the Nearpod lesson at home, or anywhere with internet connection. Teachers can also create some mini games for students. T

Virtual Reality

  Virtual Reality (VR) is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment.  By simulating as many senses as possible, such as vision, hearing, touch, even smell, the computer is transformed into a gatekeeper to this artificial world. The only limits to near-real VR experiences are the availability of content and cheap computing power. Virtual reality can improve education by providing students with memorable and immersive experiences that would otherwise not be possible, it can all take place within the classroom. VR is accessible to every student and can be easily monitored by teachers. Virtual experiences have the power to engage and inspire students in a unique and powerful way.  Here's a video about how Virtual Reality can help education:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtWStM1oMPU

Sutori is a collaborative tool for creating and sharing interactive timelines and presentations. Teachers can create classes and in order for their students to join the class, they can send students codes to access shared timelines and create their own. There are many options for adding content to the timeline, including text, images, videos, links, quiz questions, and more.  Sutori is easy to learn and a great helper for interactive learning!  A tutorial for people who has not used Sutori before:  Sutori Tutorial Here is an example I created on Sutori:  https://www.sutori.com/story/likes-and-dislikes--UFsMQEbMT2VSUcctSAFSfoZU
