Engaging students: Other resources


Kahoot is a free service that allows teachers to incorporate short games into their lessons.

             
Flipgrid
Flipgrid is a free, simple way to foster short video-based discussions on classroom 
topics.

This is a collection of ideas for multimedia projects to incorporate into an online class. 

Other ideas:

1. Students can be assigned to lead discussions (e.g., first 10-15 minutes of class).

2. Students can share materials, infographics, problem solutions, short powerpoints, or other items with the class using zoom's screen share feature. 

3. Students can be given a task to complete (e.g., discuss a question, solve a problem, brainstorm a solution, etc.), divided into groups, and then later asked to report to the whole class what they found.
