The Benefits Of Using Social Videos In The Classroom

 

Jorge Cauz, CEO of the Britannica Group states, "Teachers often report feeling pressured to compete for students’ attention, as short, snappy Tweets or TikToks that often distract them from participating in classroom tasks or focusing on homework. But some of these platforms provide a great opportunity to fuel curiosity and create need-to-know moments that increase the use of reliable supplemental materials such as Britannica’s. If supplemental material is to stand a chance against 15-second videos or constantly refreshing newsfeeds, it must be just as engaging, if not more so, to instill a true love of learning and spark curiosity in children.  Fortunately, short, fun videos can be used effectively to engage students for real learning, as we have found with our successful TikTok series."  To see the TikTok link click here,  hopefully after checking out my amazon.ca ads below.

Notegraphy

Lifehacker.com recently stated that "Notegraphy is the Instagram of Words for the Writer in You."

In Instagram, you take a photo, apply a filter and share it with friends. Notegraphy has a similar approach, where you write a short note, choose one of the templates to beautify it, and share it either on Notegraphy or on other networks like Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, and Facebook.  You could have your students highlight their favourite passage in a story or quote or  part of a poem.  Students, you could become a Hipster Quote Machine!  To visit their site click here.
