Screenshade: An Extension from EdTechTeam
We have a holiday gift for you!
At a recent EdTechTeam Summit, I was talking with a few teachers about extensions they wished existed. One teacher mentioned that when working with students on math, she loves having them write an answer on a personal whiteboard and show it to her. I’ve seen this in action and always thought it looked like a fun way to engage kids and do quick answer checks.
The trouble, she relayed, was that she spends so much time hiding and displaying the answers that it wasn’t a terribly efficient process, especially if a student needed personalized help. She wished there was a way to cover the answer and have it automatically show after a certain period of time.
Enter ScreenShade, the newest extension in the EdTechTeam Extension cadre. ScreenShade gives you the ability to cover a portion of the screen or the entire screen easily at whatever size you like. Optionally, you can set a timer to have the overlay disappear automatically.
Install ScreenShade on our EdTechTeam Extensions page at www.edtechteam.com/extensions and be sure to like our Product Development Facebook page for updates on our extensions including a BIG announcement in January!
