The HALT FALL SYMPOSIUM is FREE for HALT members! $10 for non-HALT members, $5 for students! Register onsite.
Our featured presentations – bring your smart phones!:
Session A: PaUsE! ThAt ViDeO!!
Have you ever shown a video and hope that the students learn? But they miss information? Engage your students and provide a deep learning opportunity. Learn how to customize a video to fit your lesson by taking an already-made video (like a YouTube clip), customize it by cropping, recording audio, and adding questions to engage the audience with interactive lessons, and track student understanding.
Nancy Wysard (Mid-Pacific Institute)
Session B: Get on the Grid!
Need a simple, user-friendly, intuitive and cool tech tool to engage students to talk and share anytime and anywhere? Let’s explore Flipgrid! This workshop will demonstrate how educators can create grids with any topic and how students can easily join conversations with videos via webcam, tablet, or any mobile device. With a social-media-feel, the new Flipgrid Android and iOS apps are modeled on student’s familiarity with the apps they already use.
Imelda Gasmen (University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa)
Session C: Video Upload on the Go
This workshop will show how to upload a video from iPhone, iPad, Android, etc., to Google Drive, and share it with the whole class, friends, etc. In the workshop, steps of how to upload the video file, and sharing will be introduced. Participants will be matched so that you can have the hands-on experience of sharing the video. Please bring your iPhone, iPad, Android, or laptop for this session. Please download “Google Drive App” before coming to the session at https://www.google.com/drive/download/.
