Explain Everything (Pastore)


Explain Everything
Task: Use explain everything to present learned information in a video format with a voice recording. We have used Explain Everything to share learned Geometry terms, practice Math open responses, and begin sharing our Science animal research.

What is Explain Everything? Explain everything is a screencasting app. It is far superior to educreations in that it has the capability to add a variety of different forms of multimedia. Students create different slides to present their information and then record their movement through the slides, voice-over, and additions to slides in the form of a video.

What I like: I just LOVE learning about new apps with my classroom. It is so refreshing to learn something new all together as a team. Having their teacher on the same playing field gives them new opportunities to discover things on their own, assist their classmates, and teach their teachers. They get so much satisfaction out of being able to teach me new things and I absolutely love it! The level of engagement within the classroom is hard to miss.






NEXT STOP: Completing our Animal Adaptations Final Project on this program! Stay tuned for updates! :)


Here is an example video of a light Explain Everything trial we were doing with their geometric terms:
