@RedHeadsRock10 @TravisELA23 Some tech tools lend voice to ELLs. Pear Deck allows students to post anonymous responses in a class presentations. While the teacher can see students' names they are not projected on the Smart Board. ELLs no longer feel intimidated. #ucf21literacies
@tasnejr Now that I teach English, I recognize the reasons for my dislike for literature as a student. Providing background information is another key component to help students make meaning of the text. Keep in mind students diverse cultural background. #ucf21literacies
@MicaelaWhiteELA Not sure why she took the dictionary away when even in state exams students have accommodations including using a dictionary. She needs to cultivate more awareness. Even the student who gave the correct answer should have been engaged into finding the solution.#ucf21literacies
@MicaelaWhiteELA 'Twas pathetic to hear the teacher stating"we need to focus on students who are proficient." That being the case, how would any ELL student attain proficiency if we disregard students at beginners, and intermediate levels? Do we not treat all students equally? #ucf21literacies
"Celebrate Student Success" A missed teachable moment in the Immersion video.The teacher should have displayed the student's solution to the math problem to build confidence for this ELL. #ucf21literacies
@teacher2teacher@cultofpedagogy One suggestion I read is having students do a video stating their names. The teacher has that option to constantly hear the correct pronunciation. #ucf21literacies
@tomwhitby Only when enrolled in studies. I recently had to write my teaching philosophy for a class I am currently enrolled in. I was last asked in undergrad. So maybe never #ucf21literacies
@justintarte An effective teacher does not denote one will be a great administrator. We learn and grow from every curve ball life throws at us. Our strengths rise to different occasions. Yes, it's possible. #ucf21literacies
@tasnejr My school uses Canvas and I will upload a link of my website on my Syllabus page. Communicating with parents can make a world of difference in the classroom. When parents, teachers, and students understand the class procedures and policies success is inevitable. #ucf21literacies
EPISODE 35: MEDIA LITERACY & FAKE NEWS WITH RENEE HOBBS AND ANNIE JANSEN "Mark Twain and Edgar Allen Poe distinguished literary figures have been involved in Fake News" A stunning revelation on the history of Fake News. Am I the only one enlightened? #ucf21literacies
