Students will need to split their computer screen, minimize the class meeting, or use another device such as a cell phone or tablet whenever we play a game. All literature that we read will be supplied by me.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Parental guidance suggested. Learners will access a third party platform: Google Docs, gimkit.com/join, and/or Kahoot.it. They do not need an account for Gimkit nor Kahoot. I will give them a code to join our specific game. They will need to join on a different internet tab than the tab they have Outschool or Zoom on, or can join on another device. For Google Docs, I will provide each learner's with a link to their Doc, where they will complete all of their work, so I can view it and provide feedback as needed.
