First Steps to a Paperless Classroom
Chris Smith & Susannah Wilcox
Participants will experience how the app Moxtra can be used as a two way street for communication and content delivery for teachers and students. Participants will see how this app can be used to also form small, collaborative groups between students as well as teachers. This app is a one-stop shop for assimilating digital content in the classroom. Participants will be given challenges to complete with the most essential tools to get moving towards a paperless classroom. We will also facilitate teachers getting through the initial set up steps so that they are ready to introduce the app straight away in their own classrooms come Monday. |
