Hyper Docs- Health Grade 9

Image
     From looking at the examples and videos on Hyper docs I was able to find an alternative way in creating a format or lesson for the classroom. I learned that with HyperDocs they can be a new way for students to be introduced to a new topic and that there is so many different ways to use them in instruction in the classroom. With this I mean that they can used with podcasts, playlists and videos, etc. For teachers, HyperDocs are beneficial to a students understanding and needs. they are fit for each individual student and can be easily rearranged to fit their learning,. HyperDocs help expand a students learning by providing sources to all kinds of information on a particular topic that help relate information. It helps with students to work independently but in a way to allow them to make thi5r own understanding on a topic to learn. In the classroom personally I would integrate a HyperDoc as a beginning scavenger hunt type of way to introduce a new unit. I reall...

https://www.mindmeister.com/1217603811#    The website I chose to create my mind map was called Mind Meister and in the process of creating my mind map I was able to discovers so many little details in creating my mind map. I really enjoyed the site because it was easy and gave instructions for how to use its tools. It was very easily laid out. I was able to create my mind map the way I wanted, customized in my own way and I really liked that I could use little emoji pictures like the ones we use on our phones to place with our mind map. It was fun to be able to use the little emojis! I formatted mine with questions that I had to help me remember what the purpose is or on the subject to fully understand it. I also was able to split up information into sections that would all tie into together. Some reasons why I think mind mapping is great in the classroom is because it allows students to be creative, intuitive and organized with information they are learning. Allowi...
