It's really tricky to understand exactly what our students gained from a lesson, especially when working with elementary age students. Most people are able to tell or show sometimes better than actually taking an assessment. In the 1:1 teaching environment where every student has a device with a camera there are so many opportunities to utilize those cameras.
Let's check out Recap! https://app.letsrecap.com/
Recap is free. In addition to being free, it's very easy to use. Teachers can set up classes and students can use the class pin to join their teacher's class. With one click, teachers can create assignments and add questions for students. This app allows the teacher to guide instruction and insert reflective questions of their choice. Students respond to the questions with a video. That's it!
In addition to being a great tool for elementary students, Recap can also be used with ESL (English as a Second Language) students and those that may have special needs. While you're reflecting on new ideas over the summer, think about what you would like your students Recap.
Don't be shy, Recap that!
