Richard Byrne recently posted this article on 7 Reasons to Try Using Backchannels in Your Classroom. His reasons include:
- A voice for shy students
- An outlet for chatty students
- To extend classroom discussions
- Post quick warm-up/"do now" activities
- Preserve the flow of a presentation/video
- Create a record of classroom discussion
- Practice good digital citizenship
Backchannel resources:
- Backchannel Chat
- Yo Teach!
- Mentimeter
- Google Slides Q&A feature (how to video, google's directions)
- Todays Meet closed doors 😔
