My learning pod for EDCI336 met via Zoom on November 29th for our presentations of our Resource Assignments.
Kiana and Emily had a wonderful presentation on FreshGrade.
I learned that FreshGrade is a fantastic tool to engage parents in their child’s education. Although FreshGrade requires a fair bit of time and effort to curate everything and input it onto the app/website, it’s overall benefits outweigh the cons. Parents are able to see their child’s work and virtually be a part of the classroom which promotes parent engagement and allows easy communication between parents and the teacher.
Julia’s and my project was on TED-Ed in the classroom. TED-Ed is an educational platform that provides free, short, animated videos that are geared towards students and cover a wide range of topics.
Here is a recording of Julia’s and my presentation on TED-Ed in the classroom:
TED-Ed is a wonderful resource, which I plan to include in my future classrooms!
