For our math lesson today we used the Extreme Collaboration add on for the SMART Notebook software. This is an add on that can be downloaded from SMART Exchange. There are directions along with the download to walk you through the process to get up and running. We were learning about digital clocks. To put the LearnPads, our network and the Notebook software to the test, we utilized Extreme Collaboration to keep everyone engaged, informally assess and provide opportunities to embrace the teachable moments. I was in awe as we progressed through the lesson. Students were all able to share their answers in real time. These answers were able to be manipulated on the SMARTBoard. We could sort correct answers and group incorrect answers. This was perfect for capitalizing on teachable moments for wrong answers. Kids enjoyed learning from each others correct and incorrect answers. It fostered a collaborative learning experience that was not possible before. Check out the video below to see an example of how this was set up. I also compare how this looks on both the LearnPad and iPad during the video. Share This:
