DIFFERENTIATED TEACHING
DIFFERENTIATED TEACHING
- Wizer - Allows teachers to add video, audio, and images to interactive worksheets, making them very accessible to all students. Here is a tutorial.
Other similar apps: HyperDocs from Google is similar, but it would take a plug-in like Read&Write for Google Chrome to even begin to add differentiation like there is in Wizer.

ESSENTIAL FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT TOOLS
ESSENTIAL FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT TOOLS
Video lessons and flipped learning:
Video lessons and flipped learning:
- Edpuzzle - Teachers can pause videos, ask both multiple-choice and open-ended questions, and prevent students from skipping ahead in the video. To improve accessibility, teachers should use YouTube’s advanced search to find videos with closed captions.
In-Class and Self-Paced Presentations:
In-Class and Self-Paced Presentations:
- Nearpod - Add quick questions, games, and more. With formative assessment tools and mini-quizzes built in, learning and teaching become fluid. Students in class or at a distance can learn together in the same space inside Nearpod. The slides show up on the device being used by the student, whether that’s a laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Using their own devices helps students closely observe the slides even if they are spaced out and cannot be as close to the board as they would like, making material more accessible to everyone. You can build a Nearpod presentation in Google Slides by using the Nearpod add-on.
Quizzing and Review:
Quizzing and Review:
- Quizizz - Lets you make flashcards, give quizzes, and review material in a game-based environment. Teachers can also look for other decks of cards based on the content they are creating, and use and modify other teachers’ questions.
PERSONALIZED LEARNING AND REVIEW
PERSONALIZED LEARNING AND REVIEW
- IXL - Allows teachers to assign standards in core subjects. Students are given questions and level up based upon successful or unsuccessful answers. As they advance, the problems adapt to their current level. Students are given different questions, so it becomes a much more accurate method of analyzing student abilities. The live classroom feature allows a teacher to give time for practice and to see which students need extra help. This can replace the students doing homework on paper as the teacher walks around the class and looks over their shoulders, something we shouldn’t do as much this fall.
CLASS CONVERSATIONS
CLASS CONVERSATIONS
- Equity Maps - Facilitates conversations between students and the teacher tracks who talks. Characteristics such as gender, race, or other information can be input by the teacher, who can see data on talk time, the number of times a student talks, and patterns of who converses with each other—the teacher can see engagement by students.
