My class responded well to using screencastify as a reflection tool. In this context I have defined 'reflection tool' as a tool that is used to record active refection as well as a tool to capture learning, which is then listened to and reflected upon. I have found that using screencastify seemed to reignite the enthusiasm around active reflection. With this in mind I decided to enhance the opportunities to reflect by creating a QR Code Challenge.
This challenge included the use of GAFE tools such as google presentations, google spreadsheets, google drawing, screencastify and QR Codes. There was also a slight hint of gamification as students had the opportunity to earn a digital badge upon completion of the challenge.
Where does reflection tie into this challenge?
The challenges were based on reflection. Each challenge had a few bullet points or key ideas to reflect on. These reflections were recorded using screencastify which was access via a QR code (also created by students).
Instead of reading about me babbling on about this task, have a look through the QR Code challenge I created. Feel free to post any feedback or questions below.
Update
Here are two student blogs with their 'QR Code Master' badges displayed at the top
