When students create digitally, that doesn't mean they can't interact face to face. The digital gallery walk blends digital and face-to-face learning.
Here's how it works: 1. Students create a digital artifact of their learning. 2. When everyone is finished, students display their work on their screens. 3. Students stand up and leave their devices on their desks. 4. They circulate the room, stopping at their peers’ desks (and devices) to check out their work.
(This could be applied to professional learning as well)
It's that simple. Check out this post for more details!
