Loving that @GetSchoolAI has a batch grader that uploads multiple docs at once and it generates personalized feedback on student rough drafts. The best part, it's working for me with my students python code, greatly increasing the detail of feedback I can provide in less time!
New Game Design class poster is up in the room. Very happy with how it turned out, and excited to get to add screen captures of my Ss platformer's in the future to make it even better.
I am really loving the simplicity of integrating interactive questions into my @genially using the AI assistant. Great time saving feature!
Excited to share the opening of our PHS Programming Lab, affectionately referred to in the building as the Code Lab! Thank you @mheller2115 for always getting what our students need to learn and thrive!
Game Design students worked hard this week to learn some basic coding concepts to help with future game design applications. I loved the creativity of one student to give herself a rough XY coordinate guide!
Really loving the AI generated assistance built into the @Socrative quiz creation for simple checkpoint understanding questions! Such a time saver, to get valuable formative student info!
One of the fun parts for me of a new space is the incremental updates, personalization, and creative designs that I start to get done in those small pockets of time I find. Here are some of the motivational posters for my consumer students I’ve added to start. Designed in @canva
I cannot explain HOW MUCH my @GetSchoolAI assistant has helped me get prepared for getting all four of my courses set up this year, so that I can focus on student engagement and learning!
I am so happy to have my @GetSchoolAI assistant helping me prep some of the routine back to school documents I needed to make. I’m checking lots off of my to-do list today!
I didn't use @canva very much during the summer break, but WOW is it nice to get back in and start designing there again for my classes!
I must be excited to start this year back in a high school classroom.
I got up energized , and made my way in to our school nice and early ready to have a productive day, only to find out the worst news possible….
Tomorrow. Our first day back is tomorrow. 😂
Last week of an amazing summer before I start a new adventure moving back to the HS level after spending 7 years in the MS classroom. Grateful to all the wonderful teachers I was able to work with there and looking forward to what this year brings!
Now thinking that @GetSchoolAI has the ability to become an improved version of Rubber Duck Debugging for Ss. I mean, think of the benefits of how Ss could go through the debugging process with a rubber duck that talked back and helped guide the process? Anyone tried this yet?
An underrated bonus of using @GetSchoolAI spaces to assist my Scratch programming students, is that the increased availability to the Ss to talk, and ask questions about their project opens the door to help lead to improved subject area vocabulary and problem solving skills (1/3)
EX: my Ss get better, more helpful, assistance when they ask using Scratch/Programming Specific language than just generic terms. ex: “How do a move my cloned sprites” vs. “how do I move the bad guys”. Since they get better help, they have motivation to use better terms (2/3)
