The Story of Capture Thought

The story of Capture Thought began with a desire to give my students a more authentic way to demonstrate their knowledge. Frustrated by grading papers every weekend and not being able to see or hear my students explain their thinking, I knew there had to be a better way for them to communicate their understanding beyond paper and pencil. Capture Thought allows for this to happen because it uses any smartphone to record student thinking, and the included whiteboard makes video creation fun and easy. It's lightweight, folds flat, and quickly fits inside any standard 3-ring binder. Now students always have a way to turn in short videos of their understanding and share those videos with others, creating a community of learning and saving me from grading static assignments that tell me little about what they actually know. Capture Thought saves me time, improves my ability to give better feedback, engages my students in authentic assessment and it can for you too.
