In the Classroom
After watching a ClickView math video, present students with real-world problems related to the video's content. Have them work in pairs or small groups to solve the problems using the concepts they learned. Host a "Math Video Showcase" where students present math tutorial videos they made to the class, allowing for peer feedback and discussion. After viewing a video about art techniques or historical art movements, students can create their own artwork using the methods discussed. Following a ClickView science video, organize a hands-on experiment related to the video's content. For example, if the video discusses ecosystems, students can create mini-ecosystems in a jar. After watching a video on a literary topic or a story, have students create their own short stories or scripts incorporating themes, characters, or settings from the video. Share the stories using a digital storytelling tool such as Book Creator, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
