Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

The purpose of this session is to demonstrate how FlipGrid can be utilized to motivate and draw young readers towards great literature using concise but meaningful video book reviews generated by students themselves who have read the books and are motivated to share their experience so that other young readers can also enjoy those titles.
Objectives:
1. Participants will become familiar with FlipGrid software to share video book reviews generated by students.
2. Participants will learn how FlipGrid can be a great motivator to encourage and motivate readers and generate student responses to literature, and ultimately better reading comprehension.
3. Participants will explore a bulletin board connected to FlipGrid augmented reality and view student samples of video book reviews.
4. Participants will talk to students who created their book reviews and learn from their first-hand experience both about reading the books and how they created their video book reviews.
