Hi everyone!
Using Blendspace as teaching tool, is what I am going to share with you today.
Can you imagine, how you are able to create you digital lesson in five minute?
By using Blendspace, yes! you can.It sound really easy and fun for your classroom,right?
I discovered Blendspace in our Technology class conducted by Dr.Farhah. I have never heard or had any experiene in using this application before. However, this tool seems to be very easy and interesting to use.
Blendspace is a free online application. It can be accessed via website, Chrome app, or iPad app. Using drag-and-drop interface, teacher can organize videos, text, links,articles, images, and quizzes into cubes. After that the items can be organized to create lessons and published for students to complete them independently. It is very fun and easy!
You only need to follow 4 simple steps to create your lesson plan by Blendspace :
1. Go to bendspace.com
2. Sign up as teacher or student
3. Create a lesson
4. Discover & Search for lesson
Besides creating lesson plan or lesson theme for classroom,teacher may also benefit Blendspace for their project, presentation and many more.
Blendspace allows content to be pulled from YouTube, Google, Flickr, and other online sources, as well as your own computer, Dropbox, or Google Drive. There's also a bookmarking tool that lets you add websites to your Blendspace collection. I really like the idea of comment sidebar provided in Blendspace. It is useful for teacher or student to put some important remarks or question.
This tool is a really teacher's time-saver for preparing their lesson plans and minimizing the effort at the same time.
Students can then move through the content in linear fashion, responding to prompts in a sidebar comment area or taking quizzes along the way.
They can also create their own lessons that can be private or shared, or remix a lesson.
With a free teacher account, you can create unlimited classes of up to 35 students. Free school accounts allow for unlimited classes with an unlimited number of students. To join a class, students use a join code that you provide.
As a teacher for early age children, I found BLENDSPACE is very useful interactive tool to teach my young learner. It is so user friendly for my fellow teachers to create their lesson plan.
Please review my first Blendspace lesson plan about the life cycle of butterfly!
