Virtual Hands Up
Upper Sixth Form pupil Mulang identified a potential problem in his A Level maths class – the competing need for pupils to put their hands up for help, whilst still needing to continue to work on the problem they were being challenged by. His response to this was of course, to build an app!
The app allows pupils and teachers to connect in a classroom and raise their hand virtually, putting them in a que which appears on the teacher’s iPad. The teacher can then work their way around the class, removing pupils form the list as they are seen. All the while, pupils can continue with their work, knowing that their place is being held in the line and a teacher will come to support them when they need it. ‘Question Queuer’ is now available for free in the App Store and our pupils can download it from the ‘Self-Service’ app on their iPads now.
