The Ripple Effect of Teachers Last week was a big one to face the facts of my recent medical condition. For those who do not know, in mid-2022 I was diagnosed with seronegative autoimmune encephalitis. On Wednesday of last week, a pair of Launch Medical and Health Care Strand students presented a personal narrative about my experience. Their presentation was a personal narrative combining a personal interview and research on the disease. Although the slideshow doesn’t do their presentation justice, it will give you a general overview of the narrative. They covered many aspects of the condition from the factual to the personal narrative, and the lessons learned. They did a wonderful job of capturing a human story rather than listing a clinical definition. At the end of the week, Brookfield Central High School had our annual career day. I was lucky enough to have the ICU neurologist Dr. Gregory Rozanzky who handled my care while I was in the intensive care unit attend and present t
If you're not sure what Flashcard Factory is, it is a free platform for students collaboratively to build digital flashcards that include text and visual representations. These flashcards can then be printed, saved as a pdf, or exported to the online quiz game Gimkit.
You can learn all about Flashcard Factory from the Pear Deck Website here.
As we are all involved in distanced learning right now, students can't work on Flashcard Factory in real time. This hack from Stacey will allow all learners in the class to work on creating a set of cards that can be used by the whole class. The main difference is that instead of students working in pairs, they are working on their own.
Be sure to set a firm deadline. After the deadline you can go in and approve or reject cards. Then, share the PDF with the class, or launch a Gimkit with them.
Don't know what Gimkit is? Check out this post.
I do not see the hack from Stacey. Is there a link? Curious how to make Flashcard Factory not assign partners? Please advise. Thanks

DeleteHello, if you are unable to view the video in the post here is the direct link to the youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXMlhSzfjvM&feature=youtu.be
DeleteThanks, but I don't see where this video addresses Flashcard Factory in student-paced mode specifically, perhaps I'm missing something?
DeleteHello, there is no true “student paced mode” for flashcard factory. These steps allow you to create a process in which students can complete their own card on their own asynchronously. Similar to Student paced mode in A Pear Deck slide presentation. You start the session, students join, they complete cards individually at their own pace. Then the teacher reviews and approves them at a scheduled end date.
DeleteThanks!
