ISTE Standards for Students

Knowledge Constructor

I critically select, evaluate and synthesize digital resources into a collection that reflects my learning and builds my knowledge.

Emaze is a way cool way to show a slide shows to students because it kind of turns the slides to life in a way. This is just a way to keep the students attention on what is being taught because students enjoy something that keeps them entertained. It is also a very easy tool to learn and can be taught to students I think starting in third grade and then the students can make presentations for the class to learn about something that interests them. I think this could be used daily in a classroom.
