NearPod

Nearpod is a fantastic tool for eLearning and classrooms. Nearpod allows teachers to create interactive presentations that appear on the student devices synchronously and asynchronously. It also allows the teachers to pre-build lessons for substitutes to use with ease and guide students through a day when you are not in the classroom. You can even activate nearpods for homework or in class student paced lessons. You can embed 3D objects, go on VR Field Trips, and get real time feedback in Live Lessons. And that is just scratching the surface of what it can help you with. There is a lot that Nearpod can offer you and your classroom. You can use your google account to login, or if you have more questions, let me know! Here is a quick video on how they describe their features. I have also included this video recording of my Nearpod PD I lead for our iPLC Remote Learning.

Power Teacher Pro

As you may or will notice there has been some changes to your Power Teacher Gradebook. This change is a good change and a long time coming. PowerTeacher Pro is web-based and offers many upgrades compared to the old version. One example is a cleaner look and the gradebook and reports. I tried this upgrade out last year for my classes and loved it. There will be some training opportunities and feature overviews in coming institute days, and as report cards get closer I will also offer some learning experiences in house. If you have questions let me know. One question that may be at to top of your mind is if our report card changed with the upgrade? The answer is no, only the way it looks while inputting your information. Here are some resources the Beth Migalla created for us.

iPad Time and Updating

iPad Time  Have your students noticed that their iPad times are 2 hours off? Don't worry, there is a way they can fix it. Follow these steps and put the iPad back into the correct timezone. Go to settings Select Privicy Tap "Locations Services" Turn the switch "on" The time may adjust at this point, if not continue to follow the steps Go back to "General" Select "Time and Date" Turn off "Automatic" Manually put into the Chicago Time zone Turn Automatic switch back on.  Mission Complete! As always, if you need help with this, never hesitate to ask your tech team. It is also fun to ask students why they think the iPad is set to that time zone, and why does it choose Cupertino as the default city? If you did not know the reason is because Apple Headquarters is in Cupertino, CA.  Teacher iPad Replacement If you have not had the chance to yet, please come and trade up to you new iPad.
