This semester I made the bold, very bold attempt, to incorporate an interactive quiz app called Kahoot! into a review lesson...one lesson...one time...and was totally surprised it worked. It falls under "redefinition" because I have never been able to get everyone one involved and keep tabs on student activity. This semester it was a one shot thing for many reasons; i.e.. technical glitches, time constraints, learning the program... but it was definitely a good experience and task previously unmanageable. Instead of a total 1:1 I allowed teams of two on one phone. I'm not going to go through every detail but considering my students are low level adults letting them pair up is a way to help build confidence and get a little teamwork going. Will do my best to get a few more going next semester.
I love Kahoot! Great tool for keeping interest high.
