“Creating a Video Essay with Your Online Students”

Register Now Open until 3 PM (ET) the day before the webinar.

Learn how to use the video essay as a powerful tool in your online classroom. The video essay is an exciting way to get your students to do interesting and inquiry-based learning. Not only do they have to prove their own hypothesis but they must create a video or audio essay for other students to view. The essay can also be used to promote online asynchronous discussions or can be viewed in synchronous formats. Free tools on the Internet that allow any student to use this exciting format in an online classroom will also be shared.
