Tech 3 #11

This week's Tech 3 focuses on using technology to make student thinking visible.  This is a benefit to online and blended learning.  Teachers can monitor and measure student reflection through the use of web-based technologies.  Keep track of student thinking through:

• Discussion boards
• Edmodo posts and replies 
• Shared Google Documents 
• Mind mapping web-tools 
• iPad creation apps (Link from my Creation App Sessions)
• Student blog posts and comments

Of course, there are many web-based tools and apps that will make student thinking observable and measurable.  The trick is to find what works for you.  Joe and I can help you find the right tool for specific instructional goals/objectives.
