Technology is intrinsically motivating for students. This session examines several websites, collaborative writing tools, QR codes, and choice boards for increasing student engagement with technology. Participants will have the opportunity to experience technology as the student by rotating through different activity stations. Different methods and techniques are demonstrated to stimulate students’ interests and engage with the content through the technology. This session is ideal for BYOD, laptop or iPad carts, or just a few stand-alone computers in the classroom. All the websites and activities are free or low cost, and will work on multiple devices and a variety of operating systems.

Participants are encouraged to bring your own device (laptop, tablet, or phone) to the session.
