Help students understand you care about them, even if you're critiquing their work. Plus, we all speak up to 75% faster than we can type. Now that's a win for everyone.
Lessons are by far what saves teachers the most time. Here's how:
Step 1 - create a new Google Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/create
Step 2 - open Kaizena from the "Add-ons" menu
Step 3 - Click the lightbulb to make a Lesson comment
Step 4 - type "Sample Lesson" and click "Post"
To save your own comments as Lessons, click the "..." button, then click "Save as Lesson"
