I used Bubbl.us to map out my prototype and it seemed to help with the whole sense making process. Once I started mapping it out I could see the “gaps” and started to fill them in. This whole process helped me find the “sweet spot” in the TPACK model. Using the mind mapping program helped me conceptualize what I need to do going forward with my prototype on how I will set up my next set of action research. To address my driving question. Flipgrid is an example of how I am trying to move from using technology to make learning more fun to using it as the vehicle for learning. The initial intention was to have students articulate the learning intentions. What ended up happening was kids were watching each others not only to understand the concept but on the best way to present it. The next step is going to have kids give feedback on the flipgrid, use the flipgrid to ask questions and start conversations, so they are collaborating with each other to learn the concepts.

Good to hear. I blogged before I attempted the prototype which was most likely a mistake given I didn't have much to blog about. It is reassuring that you had to fill in gaps after your first iteration as I kept thinking that I didn't know what the hell I was going to put in my bubbles, hence moving on to the next assignment. looked at yours for clarity - thanks!

I am still in the process of creating my prototype. I think I will also give Bubble.us a try. I think it's great that you have found various ways of implementing Flipgrid in your classroom.
