Doceri and iPads (Technology)



Don’t be tethered to your computer all day! Use Doceri!


Do you often feel stuck to your little desk sitting next to your SMART Board?  Do you get frustrated when you need to use the document camera, but notice the kids in the back messing around or not as focused as you like?  Do you wish you can show your students what they need to see without always having to be right at the front?  Well, try Doceri- The interactive whiteboard for your teacher iPad!



Doceri “gives you the freedom to teach.”


There have been so many days especially related to Eureka math when I wanted to show students how to work something out, but I had to be glued to the document camera or SMART board..it would drive me crazy.  Then I decided to play with the apps that are available on our iPads and discovered Doceri.  It allows you to take a picture of the document you want and then write directly on it!  If you project your iPad using “Reflector” which is on our computers, then everything can be seen on the SMART Board without actually having to stand at the Whiteboard.  Doceri has become a significant game changer when I want to navigate the room while working.

Use Doceri with any subject

Anytime you want show and write on a document for students to see on the SMART board, just take a picture of it within the app and then use the “pen tools” to write directly on it.  This app is even great if you want your students to show their work to the class.  This app offers a lot of options for you to use and learn, but I just use it for writing and displaying.  I also love it because it keeps my students more on track knowing I’m not always stuck in the front.  No matter your tech ability you can use this app smoothly and seamlessly.  If you try it out, please let me know!  If you have questions about how to access this app or Reflector let me know!  I can refer you to the right people.
