Genius Hour HyperDoc

HyperDocs are digital lessons with links to a variety of media on a given topic/unit for students to explore and create information. They provide opportunities for exploration of a topic (in an inquiry based way) both individually and collaboratively, and include multiple parts of a lesson plan all packaged in one place. They include one or more opportunities for students to connect beyond the classroom, collaborate, create (and show what they know), share and reflect. The activities are self-paced or delivered in a flexible blended learning environment, often flipped and differentiated with extensions to meet the needs of all students. This allows the teachers to offload their lectures and reimagine various ways to redefine the student learning experience while having more face time with students by moving around and conferring with them.

This HyperDocs on Genius Hour will enable your students to explore their passions and design projects to invent, create and make new products or improved ideas to have a positive impact toward others. Your students will learn what creativity is and how to apply it while using their critical thinking and problem solving skills.
