Y'all! Spring break is just around the corner - literally A DAY AWAY - and I'm pretty excited about it! (could you tell?) Before I break for a week in Philadelphia, visiting my new niece, I wanted to share Adobe Spark with y'all. Adobe Spark is a great tool for curation and has three different presentation options that your students can pick from. I use "Post" with students when they're wanting to make an infographic for a project or when they're wanting to make something that will quickly grab people's attention. We've used it with Theatre productions, biography projects, quotes that they put on websites and in other projects, etc. It's easy for the students to create and share. Everything is customizable and doesn't require a lot of tech ability. I recommend using this when first starting your students out with tech.
"Page" is more used for portfolios, journaling, etc. I've used this with our Foreign Language department when students are creating travel guides for various cities, with Art when their students are showcasing their work, and with History classes when explaining events during a war or presenting information about a historical figure. Page allows students to present their information in a professional and creative way, all in one place. "Video" is great for students just starting out with video tools. It walks students through adding pictures, video, and/or text and allows for 10 seconds of voice over on each slide. I've used this with Speech classes, Spanish classes, Art classes, ELA classes, etc. Great easy tool and it's easy to download or share via a link. Check out the Spark Inspiration Gallery, here.
