Poll

Is it easy for you to know if students follow your lesson on TEAMS?

• YES

• NO

REFLECTION

• We are happy with our results!​ We can continue using the class mode these apps offer for face to face classes or hybrid classes. ​

• We are aware that apps are constantly updating and have new features which can help us create more engaging classes, especially for new generations which have already experienced online learning. ​

• The immediate feedback these apps offer has helped us shorten the distance we feel with online learning, where we can’t see their reactions or expressions

REFLECTION

• We have realized that we are able to adapt to many different teaching circumstances, and keep updating our methods.

• We need to constantly look for new material, tools, and keep in step with the new features that different apps offer in order to improve our student´s learning process. ​

• We also are aware that it is not recommended to use the same app many times, because it could have a contrary effect and demotivate students, thus we keep on adding apps to our list.
