The level of support you give to students as they work can be adjusted by a scaffold. Scaffolds can give any level of advice and guidance to students and differentiated, at student level, when the Activity is assigned.
Maybe you have ESL Students that need more support than others via extra videos and images, or some bi-lingual support.
Maybe you have resources in Google and Web links that you can add for some students and not for others. You can copy and change Scaffolds.
Maybe you want to set up a WEB Quest (a blast from the past!) that lets students follow a fully documented scaffold in Google Docs or Word. The Scaffolds panel comes up in the Google Docs Add-in and Word.
Remember you can share Scaffolds across the school simply by clicking Share when the Scaffold is created.
Scaffolds can be made public for you to share across all schools.
Scaffolds are dynamic, with checkboxes used to create lists to be ticked off.
Teachers can see scaffold completion in Live Monitoring.
Scaffolds can be used to direct students all around the web. Web links will open new browser windows.
