@OleDudeRick Do you see yourself getting into the educational field someday? Maybe even an after school club on gaming and tech? #edu6333

@eastwinec2 disruption is good. it allows for change with is often needed in order to continue growing and learning. #edu6333

@cathyelliott88 @bdevine29 The idea of coding stresses me out. I wish I learned when I was younger as well. #edu6333

@NEUCPS capstone and graduation! #edu6333

I have honestly really enjoyed working with all of you and have felt more connected with you than other classes #edu3666

I never realized how much you can learn from twitter- I love the articles and igraphics i have found #edu6333

Loved the curating information piece and am using it with seniors right now! #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@KariHynes I agree. my stepson gets so worried about failing that he struggles to be able to understand the info that he can learn #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@eastwinec2 @KariHynes I agree. their grades should reflect their effort to improve grades #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@sumananorthover @LobisserJ However, I will say that they miss the current content in class when they are retaking #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@sumananorthover @LobisserJ I think that they should be able to retake tests and quizzes- many of my kids are able to #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@ASpagsNEU I agree. learn from failure- but how can you put this into classes who need to be graded #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@bdevine29 haha same here! Do you feel like you learned from failing from the game? Did you feel like you were getting better? #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@KariHynes What website do you use? My stepson used to use a website with games-great, but now they use more problems than games #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

@ASpagsNEU I like how they give the directions step by step! good find! #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

We really don't need to test everything-if they can prove they understand in another way-dont use a test #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

wouldn't give a student a test off of a video game because we know they can do it but test in school when kids proved they know it #edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

kids can be motivated to rebuild their game or retry something in a game even when they fail how to we motivate when fail in school?#edu6333

[Alison Charles @AliShepNEU]

Gee's video made me think of my stepson playing Minecraft- He can play for hours, and when he fails, he is motivated to try again #edu6333

Putting in effort is easy when you are having fun-once the pressure is on,students freeze. how do we encourage effort on assignments#edu6333
