RESOURCE DESCRIPTION

Give a brief description of the technology/resource.

This technology allows students to write text in brief words or phrases and it creates a word wall of answers.

INTEGRATION IDEA - PRESENTATION

How might you use this resource in a lesson plan to promote students presentation/speaking/communication skills?

It allows students to input their answers anonymously, therefore they can be honest. The website does allow for
screening by the teachers so that none of the students can insert an inappropriate comment. I inserted this into a
imagery lesson plan and I am excited to implement it this way. You can use this with a lot of literary devices.

VALUE-ADDED EXPLANATION

Based on the value-added rating scale above, how would you rate the technology integration you described, using the
selected resource?

Explain your rating based on the rubric indicators.

I rate this technique a 2 because it would only work with a large class, mature students, and if everyone participates. If that is the
case those, it curates a variety of ideas on the projector for everyone to see. It gives a variety of perspectives to the students and
increases creativity.
