    Strat Chat - Document Cameras/Visualisers (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Full disclosure, I first purchased a document camera in 2025 after reading a post from Brad Nguyen explaining how useful they are to teaching practice. After purchasing the camera, I only used it once or twice in the rest of that year as I really struggled with functionally working out how to seamlessly embed it into the lesson without there being clunky, inefficient transitions where student attention could be lost. It wasn’t until I saw Dr Nathaniel Swain presenting at researchED in Melbourne

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt
