Dear LOR user,

Thank you for being a big part of this community. To better support the initiatives around open educational resources in the state of Michigan, all resources on the Michigan Virtual Learning Object Repository (LOR) are being moved to #GoOpen Michigan (link is external) on September 30th, 2018. During the transition, our LOR will be moved to an archived state, not allowing new user registration or new content to be added. An email with more details was sent to registered users of the LOR in September. To make use of the great resources on the platform, we encourage you to create an account and add your own new resources to the #GoOpen Michigan platform (link is external).

Office Mix

https://mix.office.com/en-us/Home
Description: 

Office Mix is a free add-in for Powerpoint that allows you take a powerpoint and make it an interactive experience through polling, questions, embedded web pages, videos and more. 

What We Like: 
  • Allows you to take a powerpoint that's already created and make it more interactive/engaging
  • Get a pulse for where students are at using the analytics feature
  • Provide information to students all from one location
Limitations: 
  • Must have a Microsoft account to utilize Office Mix (but all Michigan school teachers can get one for free)
Classroom Application: 
Great for Flipping the classroom
