This one is going to be a two-parter, both things are awesome & have so many possible functions in the classroom!
Split-Screening
|
Some different splits available. |
The app I use for this is
Tab Resize, I love, love this app. There are multiple ways you can split your screen & this function always for a lot of things in the classroom! In addition, you are able to manipulate the sizes of the tabs (in case you want one to be most of the screen & the other to be a little bit).
Different times I have used it in my classroom: Students: doing research, taking quizzes, etc.
Me: looking at data, checking student work on 1 side/updating grades on other side, general multi-tasking.
Screencasting
The app I use for this is
Screencastify. I am pretty new to this one, but it is pretty awesome. I used this one recently, to record myself showing my students how I wanted them to set up their chromebooks to take their quiz.
Why couldn't I just show them this on my projector? Well, we have desktops & chromebooks, & unfortunately, the desktop is not as able flexible about manipulating the tabs. Chromebooks are perfect for this; hence why I recorded it on my chromebook & I am going to play my screencast through my desktop! I can see this being used in other ways in my classroom in the future!
Hope you guys enjoy, please feel free to
email me your questions or suggestions!
