Description: Join us to learn about Snorkl, a classroom tool that helps students record and explain their thinking while receiving immediate, personalized AI feedback. With Snorkl, students can speak, write, and make their thinking visible—whether they’re solving a math problem, interpreting a reading passage, or reflecting on a science lab. The AI provides instant feedback aligned with the teacher’s goals. Snorkl works across all subjects and grade levels, from Kindergarten through High School. Durham Public Schools has premium access.
