The sweet spot, really, is when you use activity to model + learn process.

A3: Often create stations based on whether Ss "get" the video concepts. Might give a quick quiz, then sort into groups.

Since vids done before class,

works well with stations. Gives Ss more station time & Ts more ind. face time than trad. teaching.
