Popsicle Sticks
Description
Popsicle Sticks: Teacher Picks replaces the mug of popsicle sticks sitting on your desk. Use it to randomly and effectively select and group students and to score responses during discussions.
RANDOM SELECT
Select students randomly one student at a time. Use the “Random Bar” slider to precisely set the “randomness” of the next selection; from “uncalled students only” to “completely random” (and everywhere in-between). And although your students may not always love being selected, they will love hearing your phone say their name when you turn on the text-to-voice feature.
RANDOM GROUPS
Put students into random groups with just a couple taps. If the groups need a little tweaking, you can “swap” students with the Swap button. And if you’re planning to use the same groups tomorrow, just tap save.
SCORED DISCUSSION
Use Scored Discussion to track student responses during discussions. Just tap on a score as students give answers. Popsicle Sticks will display a running total for each student and automatically save the scores for future discussions. You can select students randomly (of course) or manually (by just tapping on a name). Save multiple discussions for various subjects.
RANDOM LIST
Random List displays your class list in random order. Need a better system for picking the next student to sit in the comfy chair, or to take down attendance, or to choose a birthday donut? Random List is the answer. Create and save a random list for just about anything. And if the next student picked isn’t quite right for the job (or the donut), just tap “Back One” and get a “re-do”.
Use Popsicle Sticks: Teacher Picks as a random student picker, a random student grouper, a random student “lister”, and a student scorer.
