Classcraft trasforma la tua classe in un grande gioco di ruolo

Personaggi che trasformano la vostra classe in una grande gioco di ruolo! Questa è la soluzione ideata dagli sviluppatori di Classcraft, un grande strumento di gamification applicato alla scuola in cui ogni lezione può essere trasformata in un gioco educativo in cui ogni studente divent protgonista attivo. Classcraft può essere utilizzato con qualsiasi dispositivo e si integra perfettamente con Google Classroom e Office 365. Disponibile da un paio di anni, vieie già utilizzato da oltre 20.000 scuola negli USA, mentre non mi risulta esistano esperienze in Italia, per questo sarebbe auspicabile che qualcuno lo testasse (tentando magari di creare un video tutorial in italiano). Classcraft è disponibile in versione freemium, con un prfofilo gratuito che, a giudicare da questa pagina, consente di utilizzarlo in maniera abbastanza completa.

Using your students' smartphone cameras. A week ago, I was delivering a teacher training course on the use of technology tools at York Associates, and was blessed with a group of nine fantastic trainees who were all enthusiastic to learn about practical ideas they can apply when they get back to their classrooms.

Using your students' smartphone cameras

The range of technological knowledge and abilities varied widely from teachers who hardly made use of technology in the classroom to teacher trainers who were involved in making decisions about the use of technology in their national curriculum. However, despite the title of the course, it was essential to highlight the fact that tech tools are merely tools, and not the ‘main star’ of the show. Technology is not there to confound the technophobic teacher or indulge the technophile. It is there to create more valuable and interesting learning opportunities, to make the teacher’s job easier, and to motivate the students.

And the use of the smartphone camera demonstrates this most effectively. 1. 2. Mycaelab. English Placement Test - Gallery Teachers. Teach English.
