Material Detail

Recap for iPads is a free student video response and reflection app that lets teachers and parents see how students learn. Recap offers a new, secure and practical way to use video in classrooms. It prompts students to respond to teachers’ questions on video and stores responses privately in the cloud, giving students, teachers and parents easy access to vivid learning insights. Thanks to student Recap responses, teachers get a closer look at students’ individual performance as well as an overview of how each class is doing as a group.  Here is how the student version of Recap for iPads works: 1. Using a web browser, teachers create and assign questions to a student, a group of students or the whole class through a web browser. 2. The Recap app prompts students to respond on video. They use the Recap app to record and submit short video responses and quick self-assessments.  3. Teachers watch student responses in a web browser and can choose to share them with the class, student’s parents and other teachers. Video responses provide evidence of thinking in a natural, conversational format, which supports and strengthens frequent formative assessments to help teachers differentiate and personalize learning more effectively. Recap also serves as a platform for student ePortfolios, which helps students assess their own performance and track progress over time. Thanks to student Recap responses, teachers get a closer look at students’ individual performance as well as an overview of how each class is doing as a group.  Recap is the result of hundreds of teacher interviews and countless development hours. It was created to help students and teachers achieve their goals. We sincerely hope you find it useful and enjoy it!
