hi everybody welcome back my name is mr. Campbell from mr. Campbell rocks calm with another tutorial
this is a special request tutorial for somebody that sent me an email and I thought you know what
this would be helpful for everybody so what we're doing here is we're actually using Google meat
to see my whole class and we also have a Google Doc open that's been shared with my class and so
we can annotate something together I know there's jam board for students a lot of them are on their
phone or on an iPad or a Chromebook it's kind of hard to draw with the trackpad and so this may or
may not be the answer that you're looking for but this is something that I put together that I think
would be helpful to two teachers and students that want to use the same document it could be
a spreadsheet it could be a form but that doesn't really matter but here's the setup so on the right
side of the screen I am presenting in this google meet I've got one two three four students and I'm
also presenting my screen that's why you see six people up here I've muted myself and volume
everything over there on the left side of the screen you'll actually see a Google document
this is something I used as a teacher when I taught ninth grade when we read Fahrenheit 451
as I wanted students to go through and annotate to save us a little bit of time when we went through
the text in class so we didn't actually read it in class together they read it and annotate on their
own so the way that I can annotate this as first as I give my students a legend of what I want them
to annotate what am I having them look for or look at and some teachers may be using the traditional
editing tools where there's like 30 or 40 marks I kept it very very simple and I just use these for
annotation marks that students could put in the nice thing now is back then Google didn't have
necessarily the comments that were Aziz they work now is as a teacher I can highlight things and
make a comment right here and all of my students can see so if all of your students are in the same
document all of the students could be commenting on this and editing or annotating this together so
this is what it looks like from the teacher side let's jump over to the student side so over on the
student side this is my son's account I've shared this document with him he can go through and if
he has split-screen or not that's fine he can hear you right or the student can hear you this is what
the student is seeing now on their screen which is the teachers view of the Google document and
then they have the Google document here and what you'll notice is it's Hardy let me show you both
of these at the same time is when I make a comment as a student right I highlight something and then
I like fierce grin which is an oxymoron right if we're talking about language and different things
like that so I can comment right there what will happen over on the teacher side of things is you
just saw that move up as I saw that Noah Campbell annotated this right here and he could share more
thoughts if you wanted but then I can actually have five or six maybe up to ten students in a
Google meet at the same time working on a piece of text together and so this may or may not work
for you some people are using jam board which is fine I think once you get a bunch of kids
in a jam board it just becomes a sloppy mess so either way whether you're annotating in jam board
or a whiteboard or a Google Doc or a sheet or something like that I think the best way as far
as best practices goes would to be using these tools in a small group of students maybe maybe
four to seven if your elementary maybe even less than that right because you know three or four
might work as they get older a little bit a little bit more responsible and the tools are not his new
to them because they've been using them for a long time and so they're not gonna be goofing around
and writing stuff and different things like that again if this saves you time saves you energy save
you frustration I would love it if you would share it with other teachers or people in your building
go ahead and subscribe and like and all those things that you do on a YouTube channel to show
appreciation to the creator of the content again I hope this brought you value if you're here it's
because you want to do what's best for kids I love you I appreciate you and I'm glad that you're here
