One of the eighth grade social studies teachers at my middle school decided to try and engage his students even more during a
classroom video by incorporating the backchanneling tool, TodaysMeetHighlighted by joevans1
This was an awesome first experience with backchanneling in our middle school. In the past, when teachers used a long video (more than a few minutes in length) with students, one could easily observe students "tuning out" the video, trying hard to keep their eyes open, and generally getting *nothing* out of the experience. So not true with this experience!

they should identify themselves with their first name at least. (Note: TodaysMeet is a "closed" backchannel system. The class had to be given the direct URL to the "room" where the backchanneling would take place.)

"I understood the video more using this (todaysmeet) than just watching it" This comment from a student stands out more than any throughout the day.
