After their teacher attended a Digital Literacy Network (DLN) workshop, students and staff at Fossil Hill P.S. learned how to use EquatIO and Flipgrid. Students were eager to learn and became the “teachers” with their peers. When students were interviewed about EquatIO in a DLN video, they stated that they felt more confident, and that it helps them with their thinking.  The students have also said that using Flipgrid feels safer to them. This technology learning has enabled my students to not only be leaders with a voice, but has helped them to understand that modern learning can be flexible for other academic areas.
