In this sample I have created a Smore
news bulletin about a current event. Within this assignment I asked the
students to “create a news bulletin by making an online flyer via Smore.com.
First you must research a current event and then use that research and include
it in your news bulletin. You will then present your bulletin and inform your
classmates about this event. Please include the following: An introduction/background
of this event, where this event is most prevalent, 3 important facts that
include detail, and any other aspects of this event that you find important.” I
made a bulletin about the Ebola virus outbreak and included facts about
symptoms, U.S contact, new medicines, origins, etc.
This tool was very easy to use. After
you choose your flyer theme, it allows you to add titles, pictures, text, and
more simply by typing a dragging. I can definitely see this tool helping with
student instruction. It is a great way for students to organize ideas and
create a clear presentation. The teacher can also use this if they wish to
create a flyer or organize their instruction or lessons. I could see myself
using Smore in my classroom because it is a new and easy way to display ideas
through technology. These flyers and bulletins are clean, organized, and will
provoke higher-level thinking for the students.
