That instant feedback is very valuable.\u201d &#8211; Laura Connor, PhD<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><b>Challenges Throughout Laura\u2019s Teaching Journey<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coming from a long line of educators, Spanish teacher, Laura Connor has been teaching in some capacity for over a decade. While she finds teaching to be very rewarding, she knows it can be a challenge to create one lesson that effectively engages a class of students who have a range of different learning styles and capabilities. One student might soar through the material and excel, while another student may require further explanation. \u201cSome students will hear a lesson once and they\u2019ll just kind of get it, other students will really struggle with that same concept.\u201d She has always found that student engagement can be a struggle, but being online this past year has presented its own set of difficulties. From the question of academic integrity to the added challenge of students joining a class with their microphones off, making it difficult to gauge if students are actually absorbing and interacting with the material.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-4191-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" poster=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-08-06-at-2.11.40-PM.png\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-17.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-17.mp4\">https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-17.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assessing students has also been a challenge throughout distance learning, as it takes time to find new ways to make tests as secure as possible. \u201cWe\u2019ve had a lot of issues school-wide with cheating. It is difficult to know if students have been using outside resources, texting with their friends, or looking up answers online. There are ways to discourage it, like creating thirty different versions of the same test, but that is extremely challenging.\u201d She expressed that while there is never enough time for an educator, over the past year the separation between home and work life has been almost non-existent. Laura had found herself using personal time after work to finish grading and to begin preparing the next day\u2019s lesson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><b>In Search of a Solution<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When looking for a solution to her challenges, Laura looked for a platform that would allow her to give instant feedback to students and track student progress so that she can identify struggling students as quickly as possible. She was in search of a solution that could be adapted to different activities that would allow her to engage her students in a new and exciting way while also giving her real-time insight into their level of understanding. Upon finding Classtime, she was a bit apprehensive about spending the time to learn how to use a new platform and incorporate it into her curriculum but decided to give it a try with her students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><b>Diversified Learning &amp; Educator Creativity with Classtime\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To Laura\u2019s surprise, Classtime was not only easy to use but also allowed her to get creative and diversify the learning experience for her students. Laura first used Classtime for a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/digital-escape-rooms\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">digital escape room<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help her students review for a Spanish II exam and immediately noticed a positive response. She says, \u201cClasstime provided a different experience than what they were used to, which they appreciated.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-4191-2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" poster=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-08-06-at-2.12.06-PM.png\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-13.mp4?_=2\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-13.mp4\">https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/My-Movie-13.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She has continued to use digital escape rooms with Classtime by building a puzzle for each review topic, whether it be vocabulary, grammar, cultural topics, or listening and reading comprehension. Laura then projects her session dashboard for her students to see how far they are coming along and who is closest to finishing their review and \u201cescaping the room.\u201d Some questions will be completed solely in Classtime, while others she accompanies with a worksheet to add more complexity, like the following crossword puzzle:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4196 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM-700x512.png\" alt=\"Educator Creativity\" width=\"700\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM-700x512.png 700w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM-1024x749.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM-768x562.png 768w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM-1536x1124.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.15.49-PM.png 1589w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students will fill out the crossword puzzle on their worksheet, then enter the vocabulary word unscrambled in Classtime:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4197 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM-700x379.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM-700x379.png 700w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM-1024x555.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM-768x416.png 768w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM-1536x832.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-21-at-12.17.29-PM.png 1984w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/share\/9ff208e4-ea69-48a5-a72b-5a38367764e6?token=7417dfbc7c97d028ad0e842ea9a5c1b1a478823a18733138425f2fccc746e491\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to add Laura Connor\u2019s Spanish II Escape Room Question Set to your library.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While students are working on the escape room, I project the session onto our whiteboard so that students can see how they are progressing through the escape room: they can see what questions they have answered correctly, which they need to go back and revise, how much they have left to do, and where they are in the escape room in relation to their peers.
