Featured Presentation
Using QR Codes in the Science Classroom
Channie Zirlott, Preservice Teacher at Spring Hill College
Twitter: @channimz2017 Using QR codes in the science classroom can be a great asset for students and teachers alike. One idea for using them in science is in lab procedure. By making each step in the lab a QR code, students will have to complete one step before moving on to the next. This forces them to slow down and capture the main idea. QR Codes can also be used in students’ notes to give them access to links to reinforce what was discussed in class. These can also make it easier for ADD/ADHD students to concentrate. |

Desmos for GraphingAshley Cooper, Preservice Teacher at Spring Hill College
Twitter: @amcooper017 This presentation is an overview of some of the features that can be found using Desmos. Desmos is not strictly an online graphing calculator, but it is also a resource for teachers and students. Teachers can find activities for students using Desmos’s features along with using the graphing calculator on a projector or interactive board for students to see. Students can also use Desmos as a resource for assignments and exploring the world of graphing. It is an innovative website and application that high school and middle school mathematics teachers and students can use alike. |
Music in the Math ClassroomMarie Rooks, Preservice Teacher at Spring Hill College
Contributors: Madeleine Ackels, Katie Simoneaux, and Clare Wojda Twitter: @Marie_Rooks This video is a explanation and demonstration of how music can be integrated into the classroom. Music can be a tool in helping students with transitions from subject to subject, can assist in formulating a daily routine, reinforcing a habit, or presenting a new topic. This video is an example of using technology with a self-made lyric video to get students excited about math, specifically adding. The video is to the tune of "All I Do is Win," a popular, modern, and catchy rap song that most students will know or be familiar with. The song lyrics focus on three main ways of adding: using hands and fingers to count, counting with blocks, and using mental math. |
Operation MathChristina Milburn, Preservice Teacher at Spring Hill College
Twitter: @misscmilburn This mission POSSIBLE game made for elementary students, grabs their attention and keeps them engaged. In order for the students to open up a series of locked doors, they must perform either addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or any combination of operations. Not only can the students have fun but their progress can also be tracked by the teacher. |

Video Lab ReportsMatthew Sens, Preservice Teacher at Spring Hill College
Twitter: @matthewsokay Video Lab Reports are a fun way to increase student involvement and promote freedom of expression in the sciences. Video reporting would help develop the students verbal communication skills. It also condenses the material in an easier to consume way that would allow the students to easily share their reports with other students. |
