BLENDSPACE

https://www.blendspace.com/

Blendspace is a free web tool for teachers to collect resources in one place to form a bundled, interactive lesson for students or colleagues. When you create a Blendspace lesson, you can pull in videos from YouTube, websites, pictures, EduCreations lessons Flickr images, or links and images from Google. You can import from Gooru, OpenEd, Dropbox, or Google Drive. You can always upload your own files, like Power Points or resources housed on your own computer. Pretty much any resource you can imagine or that you would pull together to share can be embedded into a Blendspace lesson.

Blendspace also gives you the ability to add in multiple choice quizzes into your lessons so that your lessons are more than just sharing info - it helps you assess students on what they're learning right alongside the content. When you create a quiz, select the correct answer (if applicable), and then Blendspace can even autograde your assessments for you, too. I see flipped classroom teachers flipping over the ability to put in websites or video clips and immediately follow up with questions before moving on to the next piece. And while the quiz feature of Blendspace is limited to a multiple choice question format, don't forget that since you can pull from Google Drive, that means you could create a Google Form with deeper, more open-ended questions and include that in your lesson as well.

From today's learning in class, I found out that Blendspace was very useful for teachers in teaching the students. It helps a lot in saving the time, cost and make your work done in the blink of the eyes ;)

So, lets explore and start to use the Blendspace ! Register now and have fun :)
