What is Student Engagement and How can Digital Tools Support our Goals?
Seattle Convention Center - 611
Inclusionary Practices and UDL provide us with ways to explore student engagement like never before. How do we provide authentic options for students to more fully engage in learning and how can digital tools be leveraged to meet our goals? In this session we will explore what it means to provide options for students to truly engage in learning and we will investigate the types of digital tools that can help us do this hard work better. Some of the tools we will explore include, but are not limited to: AI (Google Bard), options for interactive slide decks (Pear Deck), instructional support tools (Google Suite) and more.
