Our first submission came from Josh Wager, STEM teacher at Sunny Hill Elementary, about using the app Apple Classroom. He said:
"I have to say it is simply the ability to congratulate kids from far away. When they know you are 'seeing' what they are doing, they work harder. When I acknowledge their work, which I can see via Apple Classroom, they feel validated and work that much harder!"Since our request was not specific about submitting a tip about the app “Apple Classroom,” we also got a great tip from Barrington High School Freshmen English teacher Justine Rovin about how she successfully allows student choice in her Apple-enabled classroom:
"In instructional Freshmen English, students chose the platform to deliver their listening and speaking assignments. Students chose from Apple Clips, iMovie, GarageBand, and Voice Memos to deliver their content. The creativity and depth was inspiring!"For the next issue, we are asking you to share tips, tricks, or tactics for helping your students cite their text or image online sources in the grade level(s) you teach.
