Treat of the Week: Recap

Recap is designed to quickly gather information from students in video format.  Educators assign a question to students, and students take a short video in response.  Then, Recap puts all those videos together into one for quick viewing by the teacher.  It's a great way to quickly assess whether students got the main idea of a lesson, or get information from lots of students quickly.  You can also have students self-assess using a thumbs up/thumbs down system and receive quick visual feedback about whether students feel confident in what they have learned.




Teachers have to use a browser on a computer to access Recap (though they have assured us that they are working on a Teacher iOS app!) but students can use the iPad app or a browser to respond to questions using Recap.

If you want to know more about Recap, watch the Quick Start video on their website.
