What's so great about 
interactive activities, anyway?
  • TIME: You can do them anytime, anywhere - that means you can literally be anywhere and communicate with your students and hold them accountable for their work - how revolutionary!
  • FLEXIBILITY: You can always change your activities! Nothing is ever set in stone - you can constantly be upgrading and improving
  • MULTIPLE MODES OF INPUT: You can include pictures, video, sound bytes 
  • REPETITION: Students can do the activities over and over again, and each time they'll be different - Example: the questions/answers shuffle order each time in a multiple choice quiz
  • INDIVIDUAL: Students can work at their own pace and level of difficulty - no pressure to produce or perform - minimizes stress and anxiety
  • COOPERATIVE: Students can engage in activities with a partner in the room, or diaglog with someone half-way around the world
