Student goal setting is a GAME CHANGER in the classroom. When students can name their goal and the steps to get there, and then reflect afterward, they are building AGENCY which is such an important skill that will benefit them throughout their life. However, there are so many moving parts in the classroom that it can feel overwhelming.

Utilizing screen capture, split screen, and the whiteboard app on the panel - you can streamline goal setting and action in order to manage tasks efficiently.

Teaching students how to interact in a safe and positive way in an incredibly connected world is such an important skill. We can use the communities that have already been created in the classroom, to support these discussions and explore these topics together.

Using the templates included in the whiteboard app - you can facilitate these discussions and save them for future use or export them to other platforms.

Metacognition is the awareness and control of thinking in learning. If students can analyze how they test and process information, they can redirect their cognition and behavior to improve their chances of accomplishing their goals. When students are intentionally engaging in the design process - they are learning a new tool to put in their cognitive tool box.

By modeling parts or all of this process using SPLIT SCREEN and the WHITEBOARD APP, you invite every student to join in on this process whether they have practiced this type of thinking before or not.

COMPUTATIONAL THINKING sounds like it is only suited for a computer science class - but don't be intimidated by it's title. It is really just a cognitive process we all do in our classrooms to support students in recognizing patterns, identifying important characteristics of those patterns, and then creating steps to recreate or identify those same patterns in the future. It is crucial students learn this process and how it transfers across content areas given so many careers ask adults to utilize this skill all the time!

In this video, I show you how to build a computational thinking lesson in whiteboard. You'll see how the panel can increase interaction, engagement, and modeling using whiteboard as it's focus.
