Heres some fantastic advice from a professional educator about the key to success, as studied from students in school!!!

Digital Interactives

These two sites are GREAT for accessing online lab alternatives (especially during our online learning). They feature interactives that simulate a lab-like environment, in which observations are made and data can be gathered and interpreted.
https://quizizz.com/
We will use this site VERY often during online learning, as a vehicle for taking our quizzes and other assessments.
https://goformative.com/
This is a great website that we will occasionally use to complete formative assessments (classwork and labs etc). This website will especially be useful in order to allow students to complete pdf files which may be impossible to type onto.

This link takes the user to a page that serves as a base to many other science related websites and pages. There are many useful pages on this site that will be helpful for the physics and chemistry classes. Oftentimes, I like to have the students work in small groups to practice a demonstration independently from myself. One of the links on this website is to physics simulations that are virtual. In this way, I can present students in groups with instructions on how to view specific virtual demonstrations on here that may be engaging and helpful to their learning.

This is a fantastic and very helpful website that allows the students to become interactive with the content for specific sequences. One of the most entertaining and effective modes to use on this site that I have had experience with is, the competitive and interactive quizzes. These are very helpful for students in the class and serve as a nice review for the exam. There are other methods of using this website to help student learning and understanding, such as creating term flash cards. These can be great for a preparation before an exam as well. This website is completely designed to try and create a more attractive and friendly approach to studying and preparing for exams, and if students are given parental permission I would even encourage them to create their own accounts on this site so that they may use it when they get home and study.

This website is a great way to make math more tangible for students. Because physics makes plenty of use of algebra and a decent use of geometry, it will be beneficial to provide the students with a digital interactive tool that can help them understand algebra and geometry in a more tangible manner. There is a very useful graphing mode where students can see there functions graphed on a an axis. This isn'y a site that we would necessarily use that often (since we are not in a math class technically) but its a site I would recommend to the students if they need help in their math classes or need help with some of the math aspects of physics. I may just typically show this once or twice to illustrate how to apply a mathematical principle to concepts in physics.

This website is a useful one for notes. Typically I may transmit the notes for the students either verbally (with writing on the board), or other times I may use PowerPoint. This website is perfect for transmitting notes in a more creative and interactive manner. This site features a method of administering notes through bubbles that lead to other thought bubbles. It creates a very fluid manner in which notes are given. I would like to use a tool such as this on lessons at least once per unit. I think it can be engaging, because it allows you to still use media and videos just like PowerPoint, but the extra creative edge of this website is a plus for interaction.
