SHARE
Collect student work to provide feedback, and/or include a section for students to share work with an authentic audience. You may be surprised that the quality of student work will improve when the audience changes from student to teacher
Utilize some kind of digital tool for students to turn in their work and share with their peers, school community, or the world. Some options:
- Google Classroom: Task students with sharing a link to their digital projects. Use the Ask a Question tool and allow students to reply to one another.
- Google Docs & Slides: Students can share their work with their peers who can insert comments and provide feedback.
- Google Forms: Create a Form for students to copy/paste the URL of their digital projects. When all students have responded, share the results Spreadsheet with students so they can view and comment on one another's work.
- Google Sites: Task students with creating a website to showcase their work.
- Padlet: Students can create a "sticky note" on a digital cork board to share text, links, images, and other multimedia. They can also comment on one another's work.
- Flipgrid: Students can share their thoughts through video discussions.

As you design your HyperDoc, think about how your students will share their final products. If you go the traditional route, students show their work in front of the class, with their parents, or within a small group. You could also print students' work and display it either in the classroom or as a gallery walk. If you opt for transformational sharing, students receive feedback from an audience that goes beyond their classmates, teacher, and parents and includes the public. This elevates the sharing experience and gives students a purpose for real audience, which typically increases the quality of work they turn in and promotes an intrinsic motivation to create something awesome so they can get comments, likes, hearts, and similar feedback from the public.

Share Tool: Commenting in Google Docs
We all regularly ask our colleagues for feedback about our ideas, and just as our peers' comments help us grow as learners, they can help our students, too. That's why it's so important to teach students this practice early on. Fortunately, Google has made digital collaboration simple through its apps' sharing and comments features. Simply ask students to share their work via Google Apps and solicit feedback from a classmate (or two or three) using the HyperDoc. This exercise gives students a real audience while also teaching digital citizenship.

- Each partner will read and make comments on the other's work and then return the work to its owner so the owner can read the comments.
- Students comment on classmates' work as appropriate.
- You may have to give students examples of effective comments (digital citizenship, effective partnership lessons).

share tool: google Slides
When it comes to selecting a method for sharing student work, sometimes less really is more. Take, for example, Google Slides. Use this tool to get students collaborating and communicating. This simple tool allows students to choose their slides' image, text, videos, links, and graphic designs with little workflow effort. Once a presentation is complete, students can explore one another's work instantly, learning from the content and gaining inspiration for their own designs. Students can also share their completed slide decks through a link or by embedding it into a Google Site, giving an even greater audience the opportunity to explore their work. Working together on one slide deck takes cooperation and it's a great opportunity for students to exhibit digital citizenship.

How to Design
How to Design
Create a new Google Slides deck through your Google Drive. Adjust the share settings to "Anyone with a link can edit" while the project is in process, allowing you to control the design as much or as little as you need. For example, you could create one slide for each student, add a template for scaffolded instructions, or even add students' names to avoid confusion when selecting a slide to work on.
How to Deliver
How to Deliver
Attach a link for a Google Slides presentation directly to a HyperDoc, along with instructions for the project. Since multiple students will be working on the document at one time, it's helpful to keep the slide deck open on your device so you can monitor their progress. You could even project the slide deck in progress onto a screen in the room for instructional purposes, such as to clarify instructions, teach a design technique, or just showcase clever work.

Once students have completed their slides, set the presentation to view-only to avoid any further changes being made. Share a link to the slide deck as a QR code, through an email, or by embedding it on a website for easy access.
share tool: Student Film Festival
share tool: Student Film Festival
The primary reason we have students share their work is to provide them with an authentic audience, a group of people to help students share, grow, and celebrate their ideas. Hosting a student film festival will help your lessons reach redefinition, because all four Cs will be implemented in highly engaging ways and will culminate with a live audience. To prepare the film festival, have students produce films with a real purpose: to share their film's messages with a live or digital audience beyond the classroom. This alone increases students' levels of intrinsic motivation.

How to Design
You can design a film festival event in many ways: with your own class; as a grade level, department, or school; within the community; or open to the public online. How you design and plan your festival will depend on which method you choose.
- Design a website to help you curate your film festival's resources, including video examples, rules, categories, deadlines, support resources, etc.
- Set a deadline and share festival information with participants.
- Invite an audience and publicize your event.
- Prepare the venue.
- Host your film festival!
How to Deliver

Curate all media resources on a website. This will make it easier for you, your colleagues, and your students to follow along with the rules, deadlines, etc. Student will go to the HyperDoc site to access festival information and eventually share their films. Walk your students through the video production process, encourage them to produce films about their personal passions, and eventually this will help them prepare to enter their work into the festival. Films can be made in class, at home, or both.
How to Collect
How to Collect
Students can submit their films through a Google Form, which you can link to the website where the other resources are curated. The film festival committee (made up of teachers, student leaders, administrators, etc.) can then access the spreadsheet and begin to judge the video submissions. And who knows? Perhaps all the videos will be accepted to the film festival.
Sharing the Films with an Authentic Audience (This might include the class, school, community, or public online.)
- Curate the student-created films in a YouTube playlist.
- Invite students and their families to a public venue to participate in the film festival.
- Play the students' films on a large screen for the entire community audience to enjoy together.
- Watch your students beam with pride as their films are shared on the big screen!
share tool: DigiTal Portfolios
share tool: DigiTal Portfolios
Students love showing their friends and family members their best work, and a digital portfolio allows them to do just that with a click of their mouse. Instead of filing away projects in a box, only to be tucked away in a garage and never looked at again, digital portfolios showcase a student's learning progression. Families can easily access a digital portfolio, time and time again, to revisit student work when it is linked online and packaged in a digital portfolio. Google Slides, Sites, and Blogger are all great platforms for students to publish their projects. Help students set up their digital portfolio's organization, purpose, and structure, and chances are, they will continue to build it long after they leave your classroom.

When you have a lot to accomplish and not enough time to do it all, maximizing face time with students is important. So rather than having every student present their individual projects one at a time while the rest of the class passively listens, have your class share their creations digitally. To do this, provide students with links to both the Google Form and the spreadsheet that has links to all of the projects. Students can then choose which presentations they view and when, having an entire classroom of students with whom to engage and review their peers' projects at one time.
