    Idea how to use with students


    Challenge students to write a brief (200 or less) word obituary for a famous person being studied. Have them include major accomplishments and write it as if it just occurred. On a digital corkboard, upload images from the major topics you covered this year. Challenge students to go onto the corkboard and add a thought along with a visual or audio piece for at least three topics. When groups or individuals present in class, have students use a TodaysMeet room on their laptop or mobile device to post questions or comments. The presenter(s) can refer to the posts and answer them as time permits.

    Assign students to create an editorial cartoon for a complex or a controversial topic. Grade them on knowing their content, their audience, taking a stand, and backing it up.
    Prior to deep content instruction, do a word search of the key content vocabulary with students using this tool. This tool is very interactive whiteboard friendly as students drag words around to find synonyms, antonyms, and other context info. In place of a traditional editorial cartoon, have students create a brief animation that would depict a deeper understanding of your content or as a visual to answer challenging essential questions. This is a great research site for geography, economics, statistics, and history. Have students look for strong correlations between two sets of data points and then draw conclusions on the implications in a short blog post.

    Idea how to use with students


    Government students could use Animoto to create a 30-second commercial for a fictional or real person running for office. Have them focus on different forms of propaganda when they put it together. Post primary source documents you studied this year, like a poem or excerpt, and have students share what it meant to them or how it connected to their content this year. Students can type, webcam, or voice record their response.

    Prior to wrapping up a lesson, copy and paste the chapter summary of your unit into a Tagxedo word cloud. Invite the students to look at the prominent words and debrief why each is important. As students look for ways to prepare for an assessment, have them create a Glogster poster that has images, video, music, and text that would answer your unit/lesson essential question.
    Create a custom hashtag (#likethis) that you use to have students communicate about your class. They can use it for assignments or as a discussion board part of a lesson. Best of all, Twitter keeps all of the recorded tweets with that hashtag! Challenge your students to create a history of virtual tour. For example, they highlight four or five cities important to the reformation along with research they find. Using this site, it brings together mapping, visuals, and text! For a research or just keeping up with current events, have your students take all their RSS feeds and blend them into Flipboard so that they can read each sites magazine-style, and without all the clicks of visiting each site.
