Hyperdocs are used my teachers/professors all around. They can be used for just about anything having to do with teaching. A hyperdoc is either a google slides presentation or a google doc. The teacher uses this in order for their student to learn more at their own hands.

Teachers use this in order to have more kids be able to learn at their own pace and be able to interact more. There can be worksheets added to their lessons with each hyperdoc. Hyperdocs can have all different types of resources in it. It can have videos, such as EdPuzzle where the teacher can see the progress of the video and how long it was watched. There can be links attached where you can be asked to read. There can also be interactive slides where it can be a padlet, or a google doc or there are many different tools that can be used. Here is an example of a hyperdoc for kindergarten. Kindergarten Hyperdoc

These are two examples of what hyperdocs can contain. Since I choose to show a kindergarten one, it might be more simple than others but most do the same things.

This is just a chart where hyperdocs are helpful. The way they help kids with learning and each has a different experience and they learn differently. Hyperdocs help with students reflecting upon the assignment they are learning and teachers can see where the student needs more help with it.

I think when I become a teacher this will certainly become a major tool I use. I want all my students to be interacting with what I am teaching them and I want them to really learn. Sitting in a desk and doing worksheets all day long was the worst part of going to school when I was younger. Now that we have all these amazing tools at our reach, we should take advantage of it as much as we can. This is a great tool for teachers to use and help kids with learning.
