I have been off the air for a couple of months and I have a line up of podcasts. I also have finally gotten “in the flow” so to speak, with the new teaching assignment I asked for and was given. Along with my HS music classes, I am teaching STEAM to gr. 3-5 using Project Lead The Way; a great curriculum with a lot of resources. I will talk more about that later. This podcast is about online resources that allow you to insert questions or audio content. You can create assignments or mini-lessons or you can have your students do the same. A great way to create a meaningful learning experience.
Video is a great way to engage students. However, it can be even better for delivering content and assessing understanding. I have used several different tools to do this but find myself going back to one or two. I just got used to them, you should try out a few and see what would work for you and your students.

I did some research and found a few more tools. Richard Byrne, an awesome tech blogger and speaker (got to hear him at MACUL 2019), compiled the following list of tools. You can read his blog here. Here is a list, I have checked these out and they seem to offer not only some of the same features, but also the option to foster discussion in some cases.

Moocnote
Vialogues
Tech treat- Nearpod add-on for Google Slides Create a slide presentation and insert interactive slides to check for understanding or engage. You present the slides through Nearpod’s site and information is from each time you present the content is stored on the Nearpod site. I have had great experiences using this tool. If you are 1:1 then this tool is a must for delivering interactive lessons.
