Teaching with Technology: Using tech for second language immersion
We're back with the second video in our Teaching with Technology series! This week, Hapara Champion Trainer and OCSB educator Julian Daher lets us in on how he incorporates tech tools into his French as a second language immersion classes.

Offering student choice and voice with playlist based instruction
In essence, playlists give students choice over when, how and what they do to reach an academic objective. In a traditional lesson, students have two choices: follow the teacher’s directions verbatim, or choose to misbehave. That’s not much of a choice at all.
Promote student choice using Flipgrid, HyperDocs and Hapara Workspace
So what is it about Flipgrid and HyperDocs that educators find so appealing? I think the draw is that they can be used to empower students by providing them with voice and choice in the classroom which, in turn, leads to increased engagement.

One of the many benefits of technology is that it helps us with all of these aspects of learner feedback. Providing feedback becomes even easier when Hāpara is added to the mix!
What student feedback is and isn’t
Why does feedback seem to be incredibly impactful sometimes in guiding student learning, but make no significant difference other times?
Tips and tricks for providing formative feedback in your digital classroom
Providing quick and meaningful formative feedback is one of the most important strategies teachers can leverage to propel student learning.
Helping elementary learners build digital skills with G Suite and Hāpara
We’re in a changing world. Kids are privy to technology as soon as their fine motor skills are well enough developed to “tap” an app on a tablet or iPad. As educators, it is our duty to leverage digital skills in a manner that supports student success and confidence.
