Nice! Are your students reflecting digitally, hand-written, or both? #scitlap

digitally to a form or spread sheet then I choose what to post. Authors get a virtual badge and candy #scitlap

A8 I try and have something that spreads like wildfire. A demo or lab that Ss walk in having heard about it from an earlier class. #scitlap

KyleHamstra Jan 4 @ 9:57 PM EST

Like this! Nice way to organize. Do you pose it like a contest, or is it daily? What topics or content? #scitlap

Oooo, I want to try a blind kahoot but haven't done it yet. I think it has great potential for engagement. #scitlap

Usually after a unit or lab. It is more of a reflection. Sometimes as a lab group and other times alone. #scitlap
