Learning2gether Episode #332
On Sunday May 22 Susan Gaer spoke to us about how she gets her students to exercise their language by producing content using apps such as Kahoot, Socrative, Quizizz, 5-Card Flickr, and Showme. She and Vance discussed other such apps and Susan gave us a screenshare view of Quizizz. The occasion was an excellent opportunity to share expertise with an experienced and much awarded educator, and you can play it back here:
In Chatwing, we created a list of URLs we would use during the presentation; e.g. this article on brain research supporting Susan’s approach to learning
