Technology Tools in the Spotlight!

Blackboard Inline Grading

Inline grading is a great feature in Blackboard that makes grading a breeze! Inline grading allows you to view, comment and grade student-submitted assignment without downloading papers or leaving the grade center. Feedback is an essential part of learning and Blackboard just made it easier to give it with the BB inline grading feature! Find out more at http://tinyurl.com/btt3bnt


Tip: Have your students upload a word document because assignment submissions created with the content editor are not compatible with inline grading.

Pixiclip

Pixiclip is an online whiteboard/canvas that lets you draw and record audio while you are using Pixiclip. It is free, easy to use and a great way to create messages in motion. Find out more at http://www.pixiclip.com/beta/whatis


Tip: Use Pixiclip to demonstrate how you solved a problem in a quick, easy platform to share with your students.

Scribble Maps

Scribble Maps allows you to create a free custom map complete with images, drawings, and specialized widgets. Creating a clickable map along with distance and area calculators make this a perfect add to any project. Find out more at http://www.scribblemaps.com/


Tip: Have the students create an interactive map sharing where they are from, where they have traveled to share with other students as an icebreaker activity.
