Relationship Building with Educreations

Third graders in Mr. Norgren's class experienced a different way of getting to know each other at the beginning of the year, by creating an all about me video through an app called Educreations.  Students filled out an all about me worksheet then were introduced to the Educreations app on the iPads and were asked to pick their favorite things to share to the class. When they were finished, they each connected to Apple TV and shared their creations to their classmates with a popcorn party! Each student was highly engaged throughout the entire process as they might not have been if handed a piece of paper to do this project.

Check out Hailey's, Zarea's and Allison's All About Me Educreations. All are unique and fun depending on their personalities.

Educreations is a unique interactive whiteboard and screencasting tool that's simple, powerful, and fun to use. Annotate, animate, and narrate nearly any type of content as you explain any concept. Teachers can create short instructional videos and share them instantly with students, or ask students to show what they know and help friends learn something new.  Educreations have been added to all student iPads to use this year.

If you are interested in learning more about Educreations, go to our Educreations Information page full of technology integration ideas, templates for planning, tutorials, and examples.

I use Educreations in the weight room everyday. I take pictures of students performing the various lifts and movements that we are doing in class. Then I will post the workout each day with our students performing the workout. Kids love to see themselves and knowing others see them perform the perfect lift. There is a lot of other ways to use this app as well. A teacher could create a sub lesson plan with this app. It is easy for all ages to use this app.
