App Overview
Alcohol and Your Brain is a straightforward app; simply watch the video and take the quiz. Within the quiz, check your answers, get a hint from the video (it will show the answer within the video), then tweet your score or retake the quiz. Although it doesn't have a lot of different functions, Alcohol and Your Brain is a great resource for its purpose.
Instructional Ideas
- Use in a flipped classroom scenario. Have learners watch the video and take the quiz at home
- Great for sub plan days—watch the video, take the quiz, then research each question that was answered incorrectly
- Have class draw and label the parts of the brain and how each part is affected by alcohol
Classroom Considerations
- The video was created in Australia, where the legal drinking age is 18; thus, the video refers to teenagers drinking
- Score sharing options are only with Twitter
Pros
- Easy to use
- Quiz has options to get a hint from the video or to check answers
- Share quiz scores via Twitter
Cons
- Single-function app, only has the video and quiz
