Student Voice means different things to different people. For some it means choice in the learning, others it means they have a prominent role in the structure and function of the classroom (student led classrooms) and others it means literally using student voice in demonstrating knowledge. I think all of these are valuable to creating a classroom that empowers students and allows them to be successful. If students feel valued and their ideas are incorporated then they are more likely to become invested and do their best. I have also found that students often are better able to communicate their ideas through spoken language than they can in writing. Let's face it spoken language is the first method we utilize to communicate our wants and needs to others well before we learn to read and write. This system of communication is often under utilized in school as an acceptable manner of sharing knowledge and mastery by students because we often over emphasize writing. My daughters who are in elementary school can tell me a story with vivid detail that would cover pages if they wrote it down. However if I had them write the story it would lose much of the detail and energy, tone and other aspects we encourage in storytelling because they would shift focus to the mechanics of writing, spelling and grammar. The difficultly to share knowledge isn't just an issue facing elementary students, but that is an area where it can be most noticeable since they aren't yet equipped with the skills to transfer their ideas from thoughts to paper. The issue is prevalent throughout all grades and to varying degrees based on the student. I used to teach history and asked students to express their ideas through various projects that mostly relied on written documentation of knowledge. This could be an essay, persuasive paper, presentation, research paper, etc. What I found is that often students had ideas, sometimes really good ideas that they weren't able to convey on paper. They were able to explain them to me verbally but would get stuck in the process of writing. Writing is important! |

Reflections and Check ins
The following activities demonstrate student thinking and their levels of understanding.
- Record their thinking
- Ask students to reflect on where they currently are in their level of understanding.
- Ask students to reflect on their learning journey. What were some obstacles to learning and how did they overcome those obstacles? What if anything would they do differently if they were able to start the activity over again?
- Use one of the audio or video tools to record their thinking.
- Exit/Entrance Tickets
- Instead of written exit or entrance tickets ask students to record short responses to questions for check in.
- Hypothesis - what happens next
- I like to ask students to think about what would happen next.
- History - predicting the future - ask students what they think would be the result , or how will an event turn out. Example in the movie Glory stop the film before the last battle and ask students what happens next?
- Science - pick a point in the experiment or activity and ask students what they think will happen next? Create a hypothesis of what happens when 2 chemicals are mixed together, etc.?
- Selfie -
- I was at a conference when the presenter asked us to capture in a picture your current level of understanding of the topic. Students can use the camera on their chromebook or iPad or with older students the camera on their phone. Students can then share the pic with the teacher.
- Recap -
- This is a great new application that makes a lot of these activities much easier. Teachers create a class and assign students a question. Student respond by creating a video that saves in the app and is instantly shared with their teacher who can use it to check on student progress.
- BookSnaps or History Snaps
- Booksnaps is something relatively new. A teacher shared on Twitter #booksnaps an image with circles, highlights and bitmojis that show ideas the reader thought were important. The idea is to use the tools within the Snapchat app to create visual representations of their thinking. The idea of booksnaps has since been adopted for use in history class. Students can look at primary documents and using the app demonstrate their understanding of the passage. The snaps can be easily shared with classmates and conversations spring forward.
Show what you know
- Recording small group conversations
- Have you ever had students discuss in groups and by the time you got to all the groups they said they were done, or you got to hear the good ideas they had? Try using one of the audio recording apps and set up a device in the middle of a small group and record their conversation. Students dig deeper into conversations and it provides teachers a more detailed picture on their level of understanding.
- Peer or teacher feedback
- Students can use a screencasting tool or audio tool to review student work and provide detailed feedback on their peers' work product. To be successful teachers need to do a good job modeling providing feedback. Students giving and receiving feedback gain valuable experience looking at other's work and taking ideas back to refine their own project.
- Math tutorials
- Math isn't about getting the right answer it is about working through the process. Teachers can assign multiple math problems and check student work and still wonder if students are really understanding or they can have students explain their thinking. Students can create a screencast video using a whiteboard app or Google Drawing on a laptop or PC, (or use an app like explain everything) and solve the problem explaining the steps and thinking along the way.
- Teacher can use the best examples to create a library of tutorials much like Khan Academy where students are the experts.
- Student created tutorials
- Similar to the Math tutorial above, students create videos demonstrating their expertise in any number of areas. This could be academic, or skills like playing the piano or guitar where students are able to showcase their own talents.
- Directions
- A skill that I know I sometimes struggle with is providing clear and accurate directions. Think about how you can have students provide directions to their peers and explain concepts.
- Geography
- Students can create a map using Google My Maps, Google Earth, or draw a map and record themselves providing directions from one point to another.
- In school have students create directions written or recorded that direct a classmate from one point to another and then have students follow those directions and report back on how accurate the steps in the process were. Feedback and revision.
- Math
- This could be similar to the Math tutorial where students explain their thinking but here I was thinking students describe the steps in solving the problem. The focus on this one is more on providing step by step directions on how to solve a problem where they don't actually have to solve a specific problem. Another student can use the steps to work through a problem to see if the directions were accurate.
- Verbalize steps to something
- Ask students to explain a process to show their skills in communicating ideas. An example I have seen used is making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Students often take for granted the details of the process and watching students follow the directions can often be comical.
Real world products.
The other day I was on Twitter and came across a post from a young lady who had been making Vine Videos which I had used in the classroom but is now shutting down. Her message made me think more about what our students are doing online. In the past few months I have seen kid scientists and other videos that have not only been entertaining but also informative. I watched this young ladies video and shared a post about my thinking. Today I went back to find that video to use in this post but instead found the video below where she talks about dealing with the comments that others leave on her videos and social media. I am very impressed by her maturity because I know I take comments personally and sometimes focus on those too long. As recently someone called me a F@#kFace because I commented on another post about needing to do a better job teaching about injustices. Anyway that is a whole other conversation. I wanted to share her video because our kids are learning and engaging in conversations, content, learning and developing skills beyond our classrooms. The task for all of us is to find ways to tap into student interest beyond school and bring that to life within our classes.
video created by Em at https://twitter.com/uhhmmily.
- The use of a green or blue screen background can be a game changer for student projects. There are multiple posts about DoInk an iPad app that helps create videos using a green screen that is very user friendly and is used by elementary students. There are other options like WeVideo (paid) and iMovie (Mac) that you can also use. Students can create scenes or transport themselves to locations that they are then able to demonstrate their knowledge of.
- Students can use a multitude of tools to create travel brochures. The trifold paper model is effective, but students could use Google My Maps where they place pins in various locations and then add images and videos to demonstrate their knowledge. Students could also create a travel video where they travel to these locations via the green screen background and take you on vacation with them. Students could design the perfect vacation not just in modern times, but also to historic destinations where they travel back in time to ancient Rome, Egypt, etc. Here is an example lesson I created for a Travel Quest.
- students could create a video or product where they showcase the area they live. They could create a travel video of their school, local community or a local attraction. The end goal here would be to showcase this production by sharing it with a global audience. This could be shared with a class in another state or country like I did with our Culture Video project in Sociology. It could also be more real world if you connected with the local chamber of commerse or group in your community where students' products could be used by these organizations as a resource to promote the community. Imagine seeing the wonders of the community through the eyes of young people. There would be a lot of language skills utilized to make these products that would be infused into the final products.
Do your students want to try their hand in radio or TV?
- Radio Broadcast
- When I was in middle school we had to create a radio broadcast which included a playlist of songs, some DJ banter and the most fun, commercials. We had to design and perform commercials for our assigned products. It incorporated writing, collaboration and communication skills, and I still remember doing the project to this day.
- Sports reporter
- Recently the Twittersverse was consumed by people asking for Jo Buck to be replaced as the announcer for the World Series. Many of us can relate to the experience of bad broadcasters, but do we really know what it takes to call a game well? I have seen many students try to emulate their favorite ESPN anchors when doing projects. Let students tap into their interests and use those personalities to present their ideas.
- Newscaster
- Turn your current events, or basic presentation into a full blown news report. Let students work on their skills as a journalist and report the news. This is even better when used in conjunction with a green screen and the ultimate is by using Touchcast with this. Touchcast however is an app that you might have to look at terms of service- it can't be used by all age groups.
- Game show
- Students may or may not be jeopardy fans, but they could create their own learning activity by emulating a game show. I had students create contests that their classmates had to participate in that combined knowledge through answering questions and physical tasks like shooting a basketball to earn points. When you get a really fun example that students enjoy you steal it and make it your own for review or formative assessment activities.
- Talk show
- This can be similar to an interview activity. However my vision here is to have one student play the part of the host and the other role play a character, historical figure, expert, etc. who will answer questions to demonstrate knowledge of a topic or concept.
- Weather report
- This is not -"The weather today is..." but rather report on weather events. I have done this the past couple of years with 3rd grade students and a green screen. Students this year edited their own videos with assistance, but they did most of the work themselves.
- Let them record themselves doing one of these activities -on a topic of their choice--
- Similar to the Talk Show but in this activity they go out and find an expert or interesting person to interview. There are many activities where we ask students to talk with community members or their parents to learn about the world around them or their own culture. Providing students the tools to record these interviews allows students to edit it into something more visually appealing and interesting to view. (That is relative to the interview being written and the student writing up the conversation or verbally restating what the person they interviewed said).
Presentation alternatives
Public service announcements
- In Social Studies we often discuss social problems or issues facing our world. Students often develop a sense of injustice and a call to activism when they learn about some of these issues. I have found students to become very engaged in a cause when something connects to them personally. PSAs are a great way to let students have a voice about issues that can be local or global. Students are able to learn more about the problem and find ideas for action that their peers and community can take to make a difference. The PSA is information and a way to garner support.
- Start small for younger students - This could be creating PSAs for recycling, anti-bullying, conflict resolution, etc. The most successful projects are ones that provide recommendations for immediate actions to be taken by the audience.
- I have been promoting Choose Your Own Adventure story creation for awhile. I have created a Google Form with the structure and have seen it done with Google Slides or within Google Docs. I really like the activity because it provides creativity in the creation of the final product but more importantly it gives control to the audience. They get to choose where they want to go and the path they will take in their learning journey.
- An alternative to writing the story to create a CYOA is to create a video and then use YouTube to create annotations within the video that link to other videos or parts within the video that students created.
- A tool that I think is under used is the voiceover tool in video editors like iMovie or WeVideo. Students can add images or video clips to the video editor and then record their voice over the images. This can be done with a presentation by saving the slides as images and uploading them to the editor and then having students record their presentation. Think about not having to listen to presentation from every student for 3 days straight. Students can present their information and share the results with their classmates to watch on their own. I have found that I didn't need studetns to view every presentation to understand the concept we were studying. By providing this alternative students are able to practice and rerecord their ideas instead of winging it on the day of the presentation. We tend to see much better results of the presentation as a result.
- Screencasting is similar to the Voiceover presentation above except students are able to record their screens while they talk through what is happening on the screen. Students can show a presentation this way, could provide a tutorial, or explain their thinking on a math problems as they solve the problem on the screen. Students have used this for peer editing. They will record themselves talking through the highlights or edits they made on a partner's paper to help the writer better understand their comments or edits.
- Debating a topic to demonstrate your own knowledge isn't a new concept. It is one that I remember engaging in as a student. We debated issues like censorship, the strategic defense initative, gun control, etc. I remembering having to do a lot of research and even more preparation to break the topic down into talking points. Students not only share thier knowledge of a topic as they would in a paper, they need to be able to react to their opponent's ideas and think on their feet. One way I used the debate format was with the Renaissance Survivor and Most Important President activities. Students were provided opportunities to give their opening statements and then ask and answer questions of thier opponents. See more about this lesson here.
Vines, Snapchats - short videos
- Tell a story in 7 seconds. Vine, an app that is going away provided opportunity to tell a story either 7 seconds all at once or by combining short clips that equal 7 seconds. This can be useful to share what is happening in a classroom, or during an activity or lesson. I used it to show my students learning the charleston in US History. With Vine going away, you can replicate this concept by taking short video 1-2 second video clips and putting them together using wevideo or iMovie. Students and demonstrate concepts in these short video segments.
- Paperflip videos are a quick and easy way to show student knowledge. Students create the video by placing their ideas on multiple sheets of paper and stack them up with the last message being on the bottom. These videso can be created with the papers stacked on a table or someone holding the papers. There are several ways to create these videos. Students could video tape the stack of papers, holding the paper in frame for a few seconds, long enough for the viewer to see what is on the page, or waiting to flip the page until the student reads and explains the ideas on the image.
- The song "When I Was 7 Years Old" describes the events to the past and the potential future. I think of this song as having the potential to be a great learning activity. I wrote a long post about using this song in multiple ways. This particular method would be for students to create a message to themselves. This could be a message to their future self like a freshman to their senior self where they would view it upon graduation. It could also be used for a future self much further down life's path.
Act it out
All of the activies in this section, and throughout this post can be a success or an epic failure depending on how well you as a teacher roll out the activity. I found at times that I got so excited thinking students would love doing this that I lost sight of the fact they needed more guidance especially in how to incorporate the content. There is a fine line between allowing studetns to be creative and have freedom to imagine the activity as they envision and the academic merit of the final product. I there there needs to be expectations of a storyboard, script, and check-ins established when beginning the project to make sure the end results - the reality meets expectations.
Reenact scenes/skits
- Skits or acting out concepts is one great way to get students involved in the learning process. I used this in a number of ways, but one of my favorites was the middle ages presentation. Students also performed a skit on the Pelopenisian Wars that was not only a fun project but also demonstrated the major concepts of each of the battles as they brought them to life.
- I am not very good at Charades and my artistic ability is sketchy at best. I am no Matt Miller that is for sure. I have however found that providing opportunities for students to engage in short acting or drawing activities helps ramp up the excitement for the activity we are doing. There is not a heads up or charades app on both android and apple that allows you to create your own cards to help students review concepts.
- Speed Dating - Role playing can take many forms. One that I liked was having students take ownership of a historical figure or character in a book and then personify that person during an interview activity. I used the concept of speed dating to allow students to be interviewed by their classmates with a predeterminined timeframe established to promote focus on the task. Students could circle back to someone at the end if necessary but they were expected to collect information from the expert as they engaged in conversation.
The video below if from my class a few years ago. I had a great group of students who taught me so much. This video shows our project on whether or not hunter and gatherers should move to an agricultural lifestyle. The students in this video provide a great example of the need to use alternative forms of assessment and provide students a voice.
Connect to the world
- Bring the world into your classroom, or share your classroom with the world! Provide students with opportunities to make connections beyond school. You can use a number of technologies to achieve this goal. You could use Google Hangouts, Skype or even Periscope to share with the world.
- GHO or Mystery Skype- students run the show
- Connect with another classroom or an expert and let the students let their curiosity take over. Mystery Skype or Hangout is done by connecting to another classroom and letting the students play 20 questions to try to guess where the other students are from. This is the simpliest way to make the connection. Students work to learn about the other students by asking questions.

- GHO book talks - recommendations
- Similar to Mystery Hangouts or Skype, students are able to connect to other classes and discuss the books they have read. Students can engage in conversation with other students discussing what they liked, or didn't about the book without spoiling the outcome for the other student. Students are able to learn about a number or different books in a short amount of time and are practicing their public speaking skills as they share with an unfamilar audience.

- GHO trial activities or debates
- A colleague shared her experience with a Trial Activity that is pretty ingenious. One aspect of trial activities I struggle with is what to do with the jury during the trial. How do you keep them engaged in meaningful learning while the other students are preparing for the trial? She came up with the idea of connecting to another classroom in a different state via Google Hangouts. Her class performed the trial while the other class served as jurors able to ask questions and come to a verdict. This allowed the second group to learn about the content while allowing the first class to demonstrate their understanding of the content.

Writing Alternatives
Google Voice Typing
- Voice Typing is a tool included in Google Docs. Students and anyone else can use this tool to express their ideas. The tool, using the microphone, transfers the spoken word to written world. This is a dictation tool that allows students to turn their ideas into written documents.
- Work on pronunciation
- Students who are learning English or have some pronunciation issues can practice them using Voice Typing. I wouldn't recommend this as speech therapy as there are many other better methods, but have found students work hard to get Google to recognize their speech. I find myself sometimes having to slow down and annunciate for Google to understand me correctly. I have seen students work to get Google to record their ideas correctly with little signs of frustration but many proclamations of excitement when they were successful.
- Get ideas on paper especially for those who struggle with the writing process or typing.
- This tool is amazing for students who struggle with writing, especially our youngest students. We want students to share their ideas and create stories or written products, but many of our young students struggle to get the ideas from their minds to the page. Students have used this to create the text for their family culture projects or their children's storybooks.
Record Compositions
- Audio Stories
- One of the projects that really started me on the path to champion for audio projects was one where I asked the students "Were the colonists justified in rebelling against the British?" Students created audio files to respond to the question. One of the most amazing responses was a young woman who is very intelligent, but very quiet. She recorded her response in a British accent. She did an amazing job! It was so memorable that it changed the way I look at student responses. I wanted to create more opportunities for students to showcase their hidden talents.
- What if...
- I saw a colleague Chuck Taft share an example of students asking the question "What if..." As in What if Truman hadn't dropped the Atomic Bomb? Or What if Adolf Hitler had been accepted into art school. Students posed these questions to their classmates. What happens next is up to you. Do you have students debate the potential outcomes, discuss what could have been, or ask the student who asked the question present their own thinking. This could be done with book characters, scientific discoveries, or innovations. Students should be asked questions like this to engage their power of inquiry.
- Writing prompts-
- Many students struggle to get their ideas out. Let students record their thoughts as they brainstorm and organize their ideas. The initial steps in the writing processs can be a struggle and this could allow some writers to create meaningful works of literature. Students can play back their ideas and then put them on paper.
- Pen pal videos
- Pen pals have been around for a long time. They allow two people in remote locations to connect to each other and get to know each other better. For some students the writing process can be a obstacle in this activity. For others they want to express themselves in ways beyond writing. Student can use the webcam on their computers or their phones to create videos conversing with their pen pals. If time zones work out and students are over 13 they could connect live via Google Hangouts.
- Personal narrative
- Students are often asked to write a personal narrative about a personal experience. This is a great writing project. However as I hope is becoming apparent there are alternatives to writing that could be used. Using alternatives like audio recording, video projects, creating a Google Slide Show and screencasting the presentation are just a few examples of final products. Students can add visuals to their projects by using a slide show and screencasting or adding images and voice overing their project in WeVideo or iMovie. These create projects that add elements beyond the written paper. The audio recording is the simpliest way, but is a great fit for our youngest writers who have lots of details but struggle to get those ideas on paper.
- All about me project
- Teachers often begin the year with a project where students share a litte about themselves. They may share about their families, favorite music, books, TV shows, sports or activities, etc. This is a great way to get to know your students. In elementary school the students might be asked to do this for their one teacher. In secondary school, students may be asked to do this for each teacher they see each semester. While it is great for all teachers to learn about their students, if we turn this project into an electronic version, students or teachers are able to share these projects with all of their teachers. Students could create a Google Site, a Slide Presentation, a video, a GoAnimate, or any other product to showcase their individuality that is age appropriate to your students.
Audience alternatives
- Flip Presentations - don’t make students view all presentations
- Students have created some amazing projects, now how do you share them with others? One thing I did early in my career was have all students present their work to all of their classmates. This often led to spending day after day listening to similar presentations. Often times with little expectation for students to do anything meaningful with the information they gained from the presentations. I learned from Reuben Hoffman a better way. He would have students share their work, in this case a children's storybook via a Google Form. He would share the responses with students and ask them to view their classmates. The students were asked to view classmates projects and vote for the best of various categories to provide students with feedback. When I did this students knew the purpose of their feedback and provided more specific constructive and positive comments than any other activity I had previously done.
- Another teaching point is to provide students with a purpose for viewing their classmates products. What do you expecte them to do with the information. If it is to take notes and take a test on a lot of facts you are setting the up for failure. You are asking them to determine what is important in each product and this is tough. Students struggle to determine what is important when listening to a teacher's lecture, so how can they do it for 30 different topics created by their peers. Create purpose in the entire project from the start- why are students creating the product and what will the audience do with this information.
- Gallery Walk
- Get students up out of their seats! Students create their products that demonstrate their learning and not need to share it with their classmates. If student products are electronic you could connect them to QR codes and post them in the hallways where others are able view them as they move from one to another.
- Adding student voice to this activity -
- Recently I worked with teachers who created a writer's faire where they invited different classes to come together to share their writing. Students were divided into two groups, presenters and readers. The presenters sat by their stories and shared a little about themselves and answered questions about their work. I have added this to Gallery Walks in the past to help the viewers better understand the concepts.
- Add QR codes next to paper or other student products. Have students create audio or video reflections or explanations on their projects. Imagine looking at a work of art on the wall and being able to watch a video of how it was created.
Book Projects
- Plot synopsis in 60 seconds
- George Couros shared the idea of 60 second plot synopsis in a blog post. The concept is to have students create short video posts summarizing the main idea of a book, story, historical event, etc.
- Book Reviews
- Similar to Plot synopsis, students create audio recordings or videos sharing their thoughts of a book or story they have read. I would love to see these recordings connected to QR codes and taped to the books in the Library, or create a board of QR codes where students can scan the codes and hear the recommendations of their peers.
- Book Trailers
- Similar to Book Reviews students work to create hype for a book. This could also be applied to historical event, scientific discovery, etc. Students could use iMovie's movie trailer function to create dynamic short video promoting their topic. If you want more detail or don't have iMovie you can use WeVideo or other video editing software. Students create short commercials hyping the story with key events of the story with video clips and even using their best narrator voice.
- Record their reading of stories-
- Read alouds are a great way to check student fluency and pronunciation skills. Reading out load is different than reading silently as the reader has to focus on how the word sounds and can quickly determine that the word they are saying doesn't match so they try again. I have worked with young readers recording their reading with iPads creating video projects, or using an audio recorder like Twistedwave.com to record themselves.
- Record reading of stories to create audio books/listening centers
- Teachers have used these recordings to gauge their students fluency and create listening centers for other students.
- Create their own stories and read alouds
- Students can write their own stories on Google Docs, Google Slides using a template like this. After students create their stories they can use one of the screencasting tools to record themselves reading it to bring their stories to life. Students can create their own voices for their characters to create a more dynamic experience.
- Create Your Own Song
- Music is an amazing teaching tool. We use it to teach students from an early age. Songs teach us about the alphabet, counting, cleaning up and many others are used to guide our behavior and teach us concepts. I have had students create their own songs for multiple projects. Students created songs for their middle ages project, others demonstrated concepts for pyschology or English. Students can use technology or no technology at all. The point of the activity is for students to demonstrate their understanding using their creativity.
- Autorap
- Autorap is an app that allows students to create their own rap songs. It can be done through spoken word so the students just have to speak their ideas and the app creates the magic. Students could turn their poetry into music using this app.
- Garageband
- For student more musically inclined, they could use Garageband to not only record thier own audio, but create music to go along with it. Garageband allows you to add instruments of your choice, layer them and select the tempo. It allows you to fine tune your track to create something unique. Full disclosure I have played with this but not very musical so I appreciate the products students create.
- Autorap
Back Channel
- Back channels
- are tools that help engage students in the conversation by allowing them to have a voice in the conversation. We all know there are quiet students in our classes who are connecting with what is going on in the classroom but don't want to be called up. Back channels like Today'smeet.com create a space where students are able to participate in the conversation without having the attention focus on them. Other students can use the tool to ask questions during the activity and allow other students to answer the question for their peers. This can be a powerful tool to help develop a stronger learning community where all students can have their ideas be hear.
