3 Visual Apps For the Classroom

     1. Kahoot 

Kahoot! is an app that engages students in the classroom and even at home. This app allows teachers to create their very own questions and/or quizzes for their students to do. The app lets teachers create an engaging lesson using slides to help their students. Kahoots! has been built solely on the student's engagement to learn. It sparks an engagement and the desire to learn from the students. The fundamental idea behind Kahoot! is to boost engagement, participation, and motivation through competitive, game-based learning experiences. It’s all about empowerment and learner-centricity, whether it is in the classroom, the board room, or the living room. That’s when educators and learners create magical moments together—powered by Kahoot!.

    2. ST Math 

ST Math is a unique website, that provides students with equitable access to learning through challenging puzzles, non-routine problem-solving, and formative feedback. With ST Math, students are able to build a deep conceptual understanding, and schools see proven repeatable results. The program starts by teaching the foundational concepts visually, then connects the ideas to the symbols, language, and robust discourse. With visual learning, students are better equipped to tackle unfamiliar math problems, recognize patterns, and build conceptual understanding. Without language barriers, the problem is accessible to all students, regardless of skill level or language background. In ST Math each student has their own personalized journey and takes as long as they need to achieve mastery. This ensures that students are building and demonstrating a strong conceptual foundation.

    3. Seesaw 

Seesaw is an online tool that teachers can use to provide meaningful feedback on student work. For example, teachers can create digital portfolios for their students and upload/create assignments, photos, videos, and other files directly to each child's portfolio. Teachers may also leave comments and recommendations on individual pieces of content within a student's portfolio. This app is a great way to keep students engaged in their learning, as they can see the progress that they have made over time. It is also a valuable tool for communication between teachers and students. Students can choose pieces from different disciplines and combine them into unique presentations by allowing them to record audio or video to express their work and the goal, which is an excellent method for peer assessment and student self-assessment. The bad thing about this app, it's not free.
