Hyperdocs Tips & Tricks

hey everybody so glad that you decided to come be here with me for my first ever live show and to that point if there are any issues or technical difficulties please bear with me i'm taking a risk here which i recognize everybody is doing with using different technology this is the first time i've ever used live streaming so i'm just gonna go for it and see how it works out i noticed that i've been getting a ton of comments on the channel about hyperdocs and so i wanted to make this first live show about hyperdocs so we're going to talk about some different ideas for how you can build hyperdocs and then i'm going to go over some different issues that come up with hyperdoc implementation so i get a lot of questions about link management how to post assignments to google classroom how to grade hyper docs things like that so we'll be talking about that throughout this live show today and if you have questions go ahead and put those in the comments at the end of the show i'll be addressing any questions i have an hour set aside so however much time i have at the end i'll answer people's questions and if we go a little bit over people want to hang on and keep asking questions i can address those as well so we're going to start here by just talking about hyperdocs um and getting an overview of what they are uh just a reminder um this is not going to be an in-depth presentation about how to build them and put them together i do have some other tutorials about that this is going to be more about just addressing the types of programs that we might want to put in a hyperdoc and then answering some different questions like i said about implementation so on our agenda for this show um is to first talk about what hyperdoc is and then i'll go over some of my favorite tools for building hyperdocs and i'll spend the majority of the time talking about some of the different implementation issues that are coming up and then answer questions at the end so first a hyperdoc is actually a term that was invented by three women and they have a website they also have a book they have courses their names are lisa hifel kelly landis i'm sorry kelly hilton and sarah landis and um they basically came up with this concept of putting together an interactive digital lesson and really the idea is that the teacher is intentionally designing a learning experience for students so i highly recommend that you check out their book their website is hyperdocs.co they have tons of free hyperdocs on their website their philosophy is teachers give teachers so they just post all kinds of free stuff and lots of other teachers post free hyperdocs on there as well they have them for every subject so definitely check out their website they have courses on their website the book that you can purchase so uh definitely check that out now they use a lesson sequence when they're building hyper docs that follows an engage explain apply share reflect and extend sequence i like to use the five e's lesson sequence which is to engage students to then have students go through an exploration phase they will then explain their uh what they've learned in elaborate phase and then and evaluate phase it's really quite similar and really what what they did is adapt actually the five e's lesson plan so either method is fine really the purpose of following a lesson sequence is that it can help inform us about the tech tools that we choose for that particular phase of a sequence and it can also help us with figuring out how we would use that tool so it's actually going to be a little bit less important what specific tool we use and more important that we're using it intentionally based on the particular phase of the lesson so i'll give some examples of that in this show all right so i do want to start with some pros and cons here as well of hyperdocs because there definitely are some pros and there are definitely some downsides so first it's important to remember that when they invented the idea of a hyperdoc they didn't necessarily intend for it to be used for fully remote teaching right this was a concept that was developed prior to remote teaching and so really the concept is that you would be using it in the classroom it could be used for fully online learning of course but the idea is that you have students sort of doing this independent study that you have facilitated and you can be supporting students along the way now there are some issues that come up when we build these kinds of lessons for students in a fully remote environment and that's some of what we're going to talk about today so pros of making a hyperdoc i'm a huge fan hyperdocs are pretty much the way that i design all of my lessons and i love them because they're fully customizable so you can really create a hyperdock to be anything you want it to be and i really love that about hyperdocs and along with that they also just have really high level app functionality so to give an example of that edpuzzle is a tool that allows us to make interactive video and in edpuzzle you can do things like set the settings so that a student is not able to scrub forward in a video you can do things like add voiceovers to video you can trim videos so it has some nuances to the program that are really functional padlet's similar has really high level functionality now the opposite of that would be if you went with more of a kind of set menu fixed hyperdoc type option like nearpod which is really just a program that kind of has this idea of a hyperdoc and they've created basically preset hyperdocs they've borrowed a lot of different ideas from different programs they've kind of put into their program some of the best features of some of those different apps but because it's an all-in-one program it doesn't have the same level of functionality so for example their edpuzzle tool their edpuzzle function where you can build interactive video doesn't allow you to prevent students from scrubbing forward and they have less editing options available to you as well and same with padlet their bulletin board tool is really not as complex in any way as padlets they just allow you to basically put up or have students put up posts using text as opposed to all different types of multimedia so when you're building these on your own you really get the high level app functionality you get all of what an app has to offer of course that comes with some downsides particularly in a fully remote environment so one is that students are going to need to log into numerous platforms and this becomes more of an issue the younger students get in my opinion so for younger students to need to link manage to need to get into a bunch of different programs is going to be challenging for them it's going to be challenging for us to manage and to that point it's also going to be harder to keep track of their work so it's not self-contained it's not necessarily all in one place they might have a work they might have some work on one program that we have to go check uh and work on another program that we have to go check so it ends up where potentially you have six different programs where you're trying to go and look for different student work and so obviously that can cause some headaches cause some complications on both ends and it's also a reason why it's really important if you're going to use this tool that you build up to greater complexity so you start more simple you may use just a couple of different apps you start to increase the complexity by adding more programs as you go and also important that students have foundational technology skill development so we're teaching students about proactively teaching students about hyperlinks about how to get documents off of certain programs so that's going to be an important element if we want to use this instructional strategy and similar con is our need if we plan to grade assignments which i am going to talk about a little bit more later to go out to all these different sites and pull information so if you're just using a program that's a set program like nearpod it's all in one place that has uh some benefit okay so we're going to go with the a la carte method here which is building a hyperdoc essentially on our own and as i mentioned i like to use the 5es it doesn't matter at all really what lesson sequence you're using like i mentioned in the beginning what's important is that you're using the phases of the lesson sequence to intentionally choose how you're going to use a program with students so this is an overall example of what the 5e sequence would look like you may have seen this before in another video that i have so we're going to start in the lesson with that engage phase so here for example if i had this learning target where students were going to use multimedia tools to explain how egyptian pyramids were built i could start them off with an activity where they might be going into padlet to make some predictions about how the pyramids were built then in the explore phase i could have them watch an interactive video get into some virtual reality and to learn about theories about how the pyramids were built then in the explain phase students could do something like make an instructional video in flipgrid and in the elaborate phase we could have students process what they've learned uh apply their learning in an authentic way by doing something like making a web page in adobe spark post and then in the evaluate phase we could have students come back and they could do something like post their web pages to padlet and then leave each other feedback so i'm going to go through each of the phases right now briefly and i'm just going to mention a few tools that i like for these phases and that doesn't mean that they are the only tools you can use there are all kinds of different tools of course that we could use for these different phases and one thing that i've done as well that you'll notice is that i've included some repetition so for some of these programs you'll see that i've included them in multiple phases and that's just to emphasize the point that it is possible to build a really strategic well-constructed hyperdoc where we're not actually using that many programs it's just that the way that we're using them is going to change depending on the phase of the lesson that we're in so if we're in the engage phase we are going to be hooking students interest we're going to be activating prior knowledge connecting them to previous lessons and some great tools for this are padlet jamboard whiteboard phi these are all places where students can collectively collaboratively share ideas whiteboard files not quite as collaborative but can still be used for that purpose and then in the explore phase when students are learning new information skills content these are great places to bring in interactive content tools so the tools that i'm going to refer to here are not specific to any subject area they're just ways to create interactive content so essentially what that means is that you're able to build little checks for understanding into any piece of content that you're having students learn about so that they're not just learning passively and that has all kinds of benefits of course they are monitoring their own understanding and you are also able to monitor understanding as well and with most of these programs those answers will come through live as well so you'll be able to monitor what students are doing how they're responding in real time which is really powerful so insert learning is a google chrome extension that allows us to basically make any web page interactive edpuzzle allows us to make any video interactive and actively learn allows us to make any text interactive they have a lot of pre-made texts and articles on their website that already have interactive questions and you can also import your own articles in and i think most people think of nearpod as a self-contained lesson but you can use it in the explore phase and actually i like to use it for this purpose it's actually really great for having students learn about content they have all kinds of great content integrations and they also have lots of different ways that students can interact uh with that content so you can link out to a nearpod lesson even if you build your own custom hyperdoc and then the next one here is also just your curriculum so you might have your own curriculum sources that you want to pull in and that might look like pdfs potentially of your text or you might have an online textbook so i'm oftentimes still pulling in my own text resources or my own curricular uh resources here as well um and just reminder here too that um if anybody has a question go ahead and drop that in the chat if you have it if something comes up and then what i'll do in the end is answer that question so if something's coming up for you and you want me to address it you can put it in now and then i'll answer it at the end okay so for the explain phase this is where students are going to be processing their learning so google docs is a great tool for this we can have students build graphic organizers or fill in graphic organizers about what they've been learning flipgrid is also a great tool students can create video based responses to prompts that you create padlet a tool that you can use for the engage phase is also a tool you can use for the explain phase as is whiteboard phy and jamboard so again these are tools that can be used in different phases of a lesson and then the elaborate phase is really the place where students are going to be applying their learning in a deeper more authentic way so if we're thinking about skills that are higher up on bloom's taxonomy so students are teaching students are creating with the knowledge that they have learned then that's going to be what we want students to get to in the elaborate phase so i'm a huge fan of creativity apps and basically project-based learning and using technology to facilitate project-based learning um so this is by by no means a comprehensive list just a few of my favorites one is adobe spark so with adobe spark students can make graphic designs what they call web pages and videos and actually what you're seeing right now this presentation uh was made in adobe spark so i teach students how to make these types of web page presentations as well and book creator is great for making uh multimedia rich digital books storyboard that for digital comics soundtrap is an audio production podcasting tool and here's padlet again so let's say that you kind of only had padlet for a while you can do all kinds of creation in padlet students can make mind maps and digital timelines digital maps they can actually record audio directly in padlet so it's very powerful you could essentially just use padlet for lots of parts of a lesson sequence then for the last phase the evaluate phase this is where if you're doing project-based learning so if you just had students do a big project usually you're not going to also tackle on a quiz you might but usually what i do is have students do some self-assessment they might do some peer assessment i usually always incorporate some element of social sharing where they're posting what they just created sharing it with the rest of the class and also an element of reflection and of course this could be a place where you would also have a more traditional assessment so you might use google docs here this could be if you had a rubric that students were self-assessing on or peer assessing or you assess them on that rubric you can also use google docs to have students fill in a more discursive reflection seesaw is a great tool for digital portfolios so because i implement project-based learning i have students pick usually on a quarterly basis or monthly basis a piece of work that they're going to put into their portfolio and they're going to annotate or do a voice over explaining what that work shows how it shows learning and why they're proud of it why they picked it for their portfolio so it's great for building metacognition and self-awareness and having students understand how the work that they're doing is also leading toward building or leading toward accomplishing learning targets and google sites can be a great place if you have a class website for posting student work and then students can view work and they can give each other feedback on another place like padlet socrative is a quiz builder so similar to like a google forms and flipgrid can also be a tool that you could use for assessment so sometimes i'll have students give a summary of what they learned an explanation you can also use it to have them do a reflection as well all right and i'm seeing some good questions coming in that i will definitely address at the end all right okay um so i'm going to move on now and we're going to talk a little bit about implementation so the first example that i'm going to show you here is a hyperdoc and i built this one to be about teaching students about digital citizenship and what i want to talk about first is how you might do this in a synchronous environment so we're all live for in zoom or google meet and you're essentially running a hyperdoc traditionally we would post a hyperdoc for students to go through and you can do that in google classroom i'll show that in a moment but if you're doing this live you may want to actually hold back not necessarily post it and instead just screen share so you're going to share your own screen i would recommend that you have students split their screen so that they have a tab open on the other side and what i would do is basically just drop these links into the chat so this is going to allow me to go through this lesson at my own pace i can control where we are and i'm also dealing a little bit with some of the link management issue and the self you know just self management and and getting to the right place by putting the links for these programs in myself so if you are doing this live there's not necessarily a reason yet to post this to google classroom i would recommend that you do that later we should be posting all of our work to our learning management systems but you can sort of run this in a synchronous way by just putting these links into the chat now if you are having if you're in a blended learning situation where you have some students at home also learning at the same time of course you could post the hyperdoc to your learning management system and you could have those students working on it independently and you could be sort of running this synchronously if you wanted to do things like um set it up so that you're in full control of the pace another way to do it is to run a lesson out of near pod or pear deck but then you're going to be limited in terms of your ability to link out to other programs so this is kind of a way to emulate that type of experience okay so that's one strategy if we're using this synchronously to just post these in the chat sort of emulate that uh experience where we get to control how the slides are being moved and just want to show you this really briefly as well i always start with learning targets and then i go through an essential question with students here we have the engage face in this case students are going to be posting a response about what they know about digital citizenship to padlet in the engage phase here we're going to continue by building some collective understanding we'll get into whiteboard phi to do that then for the explore phase i would have students go learn about some information in an ed puzzle video read an article and actively learn in this case obviously because i have this graphic organizer on here i would be eventually pushing this slide deck out to students having students process some information and then coming back to jamboard and just all posting some ideas about what they learned in the video what they learned in the text on jamboard and then for the elaborate phase students would essentially be going off on their own and they would be making an instructional video about what they had learned about digital citizenship for the rest of the class to watch and then the evaluate phase would involve students going watching a certain number of peer videos and leaving video responses for them so that's one example now commonly we're also going to be needing to set these up to be an asynchronous learning experience and we're going to need students to be able to access these documents offline do this work independently and actually a hyperdoc is a really great way to set up a dynamic independent study um so i do have a couple of suggestions uh if you're going to do that one is that you create a tutorial through loom screencastify it doesn't matter and that you essentially give an overview of the entire process so you're giving students a big picture view of where they're starting where they're going to go you might want to walk them through the essential question walk them through the learning targets and walk them through essentially the whole lesson but keep it relatively short you just want to essentially give students the the key ideas here now one issue that comes up all the time when we are creating hyperdocs and pushing them out through google classroom right so we would be setting this up so that we are making a copy here for students right probably the most common question i get is well what happens to all the different links that are inside of this hyperdoc right um so if we do this we make a copy and we assign this hyperdoc that i just pulled out of my google drive that's only going to make a copy of this document for students right so they would not also get any linked documents that i included inside of that hyperdoc right um so that obviously creates some complications and issues so if it's a link like a loom video or a link to padlet that doesn't matter because it's just taking them out to a program where you either have a direct link to get in or they already have to sign in with their google sign-in or their microsoft sign in so that's not a big deal but the issue will be if you are trying to link out to another document like a supplemental graphic organizer or something like that um and so i have a couple of suggestions here one is that you do away with the supplemental graphic organizer altogether so rather than including a hyperlink to a graphic organizer that students are going to fill in you just directly embed that graphic organizer right here in the google slide presentation this has a lot of advantages particularly if you're teaching remotely one is that students will be able to type directly on here and they will not have to go out to another document they won't have to deal with the whole issue of sharing it back with you reattaching it somewhere and the other is that you will be predictably able to get into these documents and leave feedback so you can get in you can monitor student work you can leave them comments on their work which is something i would suggest that you're doing while students are working on this work so that's another question i get is what am i supposed to be doing i've just built this interactive uh lesson that i've facilitated with all these links and now do i just sit back and and hang um no you can jump right in you can see student work and you can be giving them feedback uh so this is a great way to address that and basically i stopped last year linking out to other documents so you can see here that i mean i have a relatively text heavy lesson this is uh for building a podcast and i'm just having students do all the writing directly in here now another way that you can accomplish this is by making a hyperdoc out of a google doc so rather than setting this up in google slides if you have something that's really text heavy you could set up your hyperdoc here in a google doc so that it's just easier for students to type in and actually when when they first came up with the idea to make a hyperdoc it wasn't originally done in a google doc and the google slides element came later so if you plan to do something like outline an essay you you have something that's really text heavy you may want to consider doing something where you actually just set it up here in a google doc so that you're kind of doing away with the whole issue of needing to type in a google slide potentially moving the boxes around which can also be an issue the boxes will move here there's no way to fix them but it's still just a little bit more manageable if you're going to have a lot of text that you want to look at and the same benefit exists with doing it this way as well where you would be able to get into this document and see student work leave feedback directly on this document so i usually actually have a mix of both i don't do all of my hyperdocs and google slides slides has an advantage of being able to add different types of multimedia you can you know add the gifs gifs i'm sure can i get some comments about my pronunciation of that so you can add different features that you can't always put like videos embedded videos things like that that you cannot have in a document but um still still worth considering making them in google docs okay so let's say you're like nope i still want to put a graphic organizer like this into my google slides hyperdoc because that's just the way you want to do it i do that as well there are some tips about how you can improve that process so the way that might look let's say i have something like this which is a essay or it's an argumentative paragraph outline that i want students to fill out and let's say that i have this hyperdoc here and i want students to go out to this outline and they're going to need to fill that outline in and then they're going to need to continue to go through the process of going through the lesson right one thing that comes up all the time is how share settings work so if you go up here to the blue share button and it's actually not going to be default like that let me it's going to show up here as restricted right so when you initially open it it's going to be private to you it'll be restricted and the first thing that you'll have to do is change so that anyone with the link can view it and then when you copy that link and you would put that in and you would add that as a document now the issue that's going to come up is that if a student tries to open this they are immediately going to see that they need to make a copy so i'm going to pull up here a student document and what commonly happens is that they get to this document and they can't write on it right because they just got a view only document now you don't want to share it with them as an editable document because then you've just shared a single editable document with your entire class and so everybody can get in unless that's your intention you don't want to do that but this also creates a problem right where we have this view only document so one thing that's going to happen is that students are always going to go up here they're going to request edit access you're going to get a bomb of emails asking you for edit access and then you've got to respond back to them and say no you need to make a copy of that document right so you could teach them to go up here go file make a copy so that they have it they would then have their own editable version and the issue with this is that they're still going to need to share it back with you so they'll still have to go up here to the blue share button and they'll have to send it to you because if they don't you won't be able to view it you'll click on it and it'll say you don't have access to it so that's actually an issue that is difficult to get around so another way to do this is rather than put the link in the way that it's showing here we're going to take this back end of the link and i'm going to change it to say copy okay so what this is going to do is force push make a copy so now when anyone clicks on this link let me show this here it will prompt them to make a copy of the document so they will click make a copy and then you've basically just circumvented the step of having to teach students to go up there and go to file make a copy now this does not fix the issue of them still needing to go up here to the blue share button to share it back with you so if you do this method you will still need to essentially train students to share that document back with you and one way that you can really emphasize that point that they need to do that is by creating a little text box in your presentation here and make sure that they're posting that link back so you want to teach students that they need to share it back with you and then they're going to need to post the link back to your google slide so that you have access to it you can see it you can still get in there you can still give them feedback now there's another way to do it that gets rid of both issues so students will not need to make a copy and students will not need to share it with you and that would be to link it to your learning management system so if you were to do this what you would need to do is go back to google classroom and you would need to create an assignment from this graphic organizer or an assignment that has this graphic organizer in it so what i'll do here is create that graphic organizer assignment i'm going to pull it in from my google drive and i'm going to do the same thing that i did with the google slide where i'm going to make a copy of this document so that all students have a copy and the the benefit of this is that now i've gotten rid of that issue but the downside is that you essentially just duplicated an assignment so if you're going to do something like this you might want to set up a topic where you basically have a separate area so this might be you know could be a resources topic it could be a materials topic graphic organizers topic something where you're putting it in a separate place in google classroom that is not necessarily where students are going to go um for that assignment that's an option uh you could just bundle it in with the assignment or put it still in the same place where you're putting your assignments and just let students know that there's essentially a duplicate um so if you know they see two uh graphic organizers it's not like they need to fill in both of them so let's say that i do that i create this and i have this assignment that i now want to link to google slides you're gonna if you do this you're going to have to violate my golden rule so if you watch my channel uh you know that i absolutely hate assignments in the stream so i like having my stream without all this stuff in there right so i like having my stream where all it is is just uh whoops sorry this is classwork on the stream sorry i hide notifications i don't like notifications on my stream so i like it to be nice and cleaned up all i have here is my announcement right because it's to me it doesn't make sense that you would have classwork in two places and then it just like is like a whole running blog post i don't like that the issue is that if you want that link to that direct assignment you are going to have to allow the assignment in the stream so you have to go here to settings and you'll have to allow assignments to be on the stream it can be a condensed notification it doesn't have to be the whole thing you're going to click save and then what you'll be able to do is get the link so you can copy the link here and that's going to be a link that won't take students just to google classroom in general because if you tried to say link to that graphic organizer here by just copying the link that was up here like if you did this and tried to copy that link it's not going to take students to that assignment so you have to get it from your stream and copy it and then if you put it in that's going to take students directly to that assignment in google classroom that will be their own copy that's already shared with you so it's kind of weighing the pros and cons of which logistical challenge you want to go with do you want to deal with or i should actually back up and say first if you can i would do away with the logistical challenge by just directly embedding graphic organizers in if you must have a separate graphic organizer like this you either will have to edit that back end of the link to make it so that it's force copied and then teach students to share it back with you put the link here so you can access it or you pick your other logistical poison you have to create assignments that go into the stream and you duplicate an assignment if anybody knows of a better way to do it i would love to hear that i'm always looking for a way to solve this problem so please if you know of something better or another workaround or another hack i would i would love to hear about that now the last thing that i want to show is what you can be doing once you have made a copy of those hyperdocs and students are working on those assignments so i had mentioned right that if students are in here they're typing out responses that one thing you can do is essentially monitor student work so you can do this in the interactive programs that i mentioned so if you're back up here and you know you have students in these programs like insert learning edpuzzle actively learn i would advise that you're essentially monitoring what's coming through you can even give them real-time feedback as they're answering those questions well let's say that they're working on filling in a graphic organizer like this that you have on a google doc what you can do here is go to google classroom and you would go to view assignment and then you'll be able to actually click on student work here so i can click on an individual student's presentation and this so this is going to take me here to i'm a private comment editor right this is like inside of google classroom so this is one way that i can monitor student work another way is that i can also see that in my google drive so sorry i did that pretty fast so here if you didn't want to see it in the google classroom grading portal you could open up the folder for the assignment that will take you to your google drive and that's in your your home classroom folder and then you'll have all the copies of individual hyperdocs for students so then you can jump in and you can check out what they're doing so if a student did some work here right like the student you know wrote i learned something awesome then i can hop in and i can leave that student some feedback so i can go in and comment and another little tip here is that this uh never mind it's not it's not showing up it's okay um so i might say for example here you know great but please capitalize your first letter so this is just a way that i can get in i can monitor student work i can check out what they're doing and give them some real-time feedback as well um so the last i know i said that was the last thing but the last thing that i do also just want to talk about briefly is grading so i get a lot of questions as well about how do you grade all this stuff right you have kids going over to all these programs and am i supposed to be entering all these different programs in my grade book that's going to mean you know tons and tons of work the purpose of these is really that they're meant to be formative assessment programs so they're meant to be programs that help you monitor student understanding and also help students monitor their own understanding as they're going through the learning process so i think philosophically we might want to think about if we actually even want to be giving grades for this type of learning because it's learning that's in process learning it's not summative learning it's not learning that's reflecting what a student has learned in the end um and if you build a really rigorous summative assessment then you can also kind of do away with grading all these little what i call build up assignments um so if you end up doing a creative project i would grade that so build a rubric that grades that rigorously and um make sure that it encompasses all of the lessons that led up to your final assessment so that either your rubric or your quiz or your test and then if students um didn't do that other work they didn't learn uh the information during all the build up the lead up they shouldn't be able to do well right on your summative assessment um so it is a little bit of shift in terms of thinking and if you wanted to sort of go in a middle ground you could give completion work so that it's also not overloading you with a grading burden but i would encourage people to just kind of think of this stuff as a formative assessment and give students ongoing feedback some of the feedback will be automated if you have it set up that way with multiple choice questions but don't worry so much about trying to go in and enter 150 different grades into the gradebook for every little assignment that leads up to your assessment okay so that's the end of my presentation here so we're going to shift over and i'll be answering some questions so what i'm going to do here is just pull some questions actually in and i'll address some of those so uh yeah thanks for for your question here so this question is about jamboard um yeah comments being anonymous one student essentially destroying the board uh yes so padlet uh will allow you to track specific comments you do still need to have students set up accounts otherwise they will still be anonymous but the benefit of padlet is that they cannot um go in and change anybody else's response so a huge downside of jamboard that i hope they figure out a way to fix is that you can basically edit anybody's work right so it requires a high level of maturity of digital citizenship skills probably better for older students certainly better for just like quick throw up activities or maybe a place where you're leaving some information that you want students to access but um i do think jamboard has a place uh however i do use padlet much more often and padlets a more versatile tool than jamboard thanks for that question okay so this question is about digital notebooks adding new pages to notebooks yeah so this is a great question and this um this can be so so what this question is asking is let's say you push an assignment like we just did out through google classroom right you just push that hyperdoc out what if you wanted to make that a digital interactive notebook and you wanted to be able to continually add new slides to it there are two tools that you can use for this one is called slip in slide it's a google slides add-on um and the other let me just make sure i'm ah it's called yes um so alice keeler um coded another way of doing this um and it's called push slides and her method i believe uses if i remember correctly uses google forms as a way to do this so essentially what it will allow you to do is take anything or i should say anything it will allow you to take any slide and push a new slide out to slide decks that have already been created all right let's see here all right so let's see russell has a question here about hyperdocs being functional on a google site yeah so um if you're running a google site i would still recommend that you use google classroom so i would basically do what i just showed run the hyperdoc out of google classroom but then link to the hyperdoc through your google site if that makes sense so yeah you can definitely use hyperdocs in google sites if you don't run it through google classroom the problem is going to be that you won't have any way of tracking it it kind of will multiply that issue of not having a way to keep track of a document of you not being able to get into the student documents so i would definitely recommend that you run it out of google classroom and then just link to that assignment basically by doing the same exact thing that i showed where you put it in the stream you copy the link and then you put that link into google sites all right yeah some there's some feedback here about about uh not liking jamboard i understand okay so this is a question here about about the graphic organizer recommend only sharing your screen yeah so um i'm not saying that you would only share your screen and you would never share the document with them it's just that uh for certain parts of the lesson particularly maybe the beginning before they're actually filling out any information you can just control where students are in the presentation by not sharing it with them yet so you could just give them the graphic organizer or give them the whole hyperdoc later so yeah essentially you would share with them when it's time to work definitely yeah i see some people liking the editing in the back of a link and yeah you can do that it's not just google docs this ben is saying you can do that in google forms as well absolutely yeah this is a huge issue that comes up a lot it's unfortunate all alternates to google extensions um so yeah i mean you actually have a great one right here so one add-on is paradak um but they can you know you can still get into near pod or padlet so if you you know a program like insert learning for making a web page interactive instead of using that you could just move over to actively learn so it's really gonna it's going to depend on what you're trying to do there are alternates um you know there's not always going to be a solution essentially an extension is like a little it's kind of like a phone app that adds a little tiny bit of functionality uh upgrade some of them are obviously a little bit more powerful but it really depends on on what you're looking to do so the answer is yes and no there are some programs that will serve the same function but then there are some that's going to be hard to replicate yeah somebody else recommending um quiz is which is another tool that i didn't mention but also also a great tool and they now have uh they're they're kind of moving into the interactive content realm so before they were more like a kahoot type tool and now you can build essentially slides within quizzes that have interactive elements so that's also a great tool this one i don't know if this is referring to the to the live stream if it is and i know people are um are potentially live streaming this is software called ecamm ecamm is live streaming software for macs but there's other types of live streaming software and essentially it allows you to build like a screen like this and i can pull in comments and you can preset different screens so you have different um views like this one is is set for me to be obviously just talking in front of a background that i set up whereas the others i was green screened in front of the um uh the web page that i was presenting so they the the software is pretty pretty advanced and pretty intuitive and all drag and drop so if you if you are live streaming if you have a mac ecamm is definitely uh some software that i would recommend stream yard is also uh good if you're just trying to stream from uh any any platform any computer yeah so this is a question about about ipads so i think the thing here is to to think about um google slides is only really a mechanism for delivering a lesson it doesn't have to be in a google slide so uh you can you know facilitate it totally on your own like i showed by putting it in the chat or sharing out individual links to students it doesn't have to be something that that you're building in google slides you could even hypothetically essentially emulate the experience of sort of facilitating where students are going in different places and different tech programs just by posting those at different intervals on google classroom you could send them to you know padlet to start then you could send them over to actively learn have them come back to padlet or jamboard and those are all apps in fact pretty much everything that i shared has an app version as well so it doesn't have to be that they're going through google slides if that's a barrier okay this is a question about locking students into doing lessons in a certain order jumping to whatever you post today yeah so um no not if you do it in the way that i showed so if you set up the lesson uh in a single contiguous google slide where you've basically posted the entire lesson sequence you're not going to be able to prevent students from moving forward one thing that my partner teacher and i started doing last year was essentially putting a buffer slide in the middle where we were indicating to students that they needed to stop at a particular place that um they should even record how much time that part of the lesson took them they could record something that they learned in that part of the lesson i guess i would also think about you know it sounds like this is a problem for you here erin i guess sometimes when i um because they're jumping around to different places i guess sometimes if the problem is that they're just moving through a lesson at a faster pace so you know maybe they you intended for them to do a part on monday and but they're actually getting through wednesday i guess i would question whether or not that's actually a huge problem if they're doing the work well if they're not doing the work well if they're you know kind of phoning it in then that's a problem but if they're doing it well and they get all their work done and it's a couple days early and you're asynchronous maybe uh that's not the the biggest issue it sounds like this is a different issue with jumping around which which would be a concern um but yeah this isn't something you're going to be able to control unless you actually break up the slides and post those different in different places which you could do as well there's a question about whether or not i have a base template i do so if you go to my website newedtechclassroom.com i have a lot of different templates posted there and i also have a lot of templates pretty much everything that i show in my videos if you go into the video description uh if i showed a lesson plan then i've also linked to that lesson plan that you can take and use or graphic organizer see i'm gonna have to think about this question okay would sharing a folder for hyperdoc help students at all all the resources would be in the folder and then students would just need to share the folder back to the instructor yeah so you could do this i think this method still i have to think about this a little bit more but it's still involving students moving documents around to different places so from my perspective whether we're having them move it into a folder or teaching them how to share a document it's kind of a similar thing so you could set up another system but whatever the system is unless you're linking that document back through google classroom where you've already made the comment then you're still going to have the issue of needing to teach them how to do that which isn't necessarily a bad thing it's just something that you need to be aware of yeah i need to i need to think about this one a little bit more but thanks for that question and suggestion david okay uh regina has a question about um edmodo yeah so you can definitely i mean there if if your lms just in general doesn't allow you to make a copy of a document you could always um use the force push make a copy feature that i showed you where you edit the back end of the link and turn it into a copy so you could always do that but you should be able to push out an individual copy since it links to your google drive i i'm actually i'm not familiar enough with edmodo to know for sure whether or not you can do that um but if you couldn't then you could set it up so that the link you are putting into edmodo just had that re-edited back end so that it said copy on there and then that would give them a copy all right it looks like this is a last question here um and i apologize if i missed any there's a lot of a lot of comments here that i'm trying to scroll through is have i created escape rooms in google forms yet um if this is about a video about escape rooms in google forms i have not i have had this requested so it's on my list which is long um but it's it's there on the list if anybody um didn't get their question answered i will you can still put it in the comments and i will still try to i will still i won't try i will still get to it at a later time so i'm going to be doing this again next week i would love to hear in the comments what people would like to learn about i haven't decided yet what i'm going to do a live show about next week so if you have any suggestions please drop those in the comments and i really appreciate everybody being here all the engagement and comments uh was really great for this first live show so i'm wishing everybody the best and just keep in mind we're in a really difficult situation right now whether you're in person and you're dealing with social distancing in the classroom whether you're trying to deal with blended learning where you have kids at home and kids in the classroom or whether you're dealing with a fully remote learning situation it's really hard so we're all in this boat right of trying to just do our best so just keep that in mind you're all working hard and just the fact that people showed up on a thursday night to learn about education technology reflects uh how dedicated you are as an educator so your students are lucky to have you alright see everybody next week i hope
