@MrsKannekens I just learned about #flipgrid in one of my education classes. What is your favorite use for it in a social studies classroom? #educ331 #preserviceteacher

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

@FotonVr As a future teacher I hope to explore different types of technology to integrate into my social studies classroom. What is one of the biggest challeges to introducing VR into schools/classrooms and how can this challenge be overcome? #EDUC331 #VRinEducation #VR

@lyn_huff Way to go Lyn! I am so excited for you!!!

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

@HundrEDorg In what ways can @canva be used to help promote globalized thinking and application among students? #educ331

Unfortunately I was unable to participate in #ditchbook this week. I am still overwhelmed by the knowledge and support of the #ditchbook community from last week. Hopefully my schedule will allow me to participate in more in the future!

@kfblades Thank you! I hope to build a great PLN before I even graduate from my teaching program in Spring of 2020!

A4: This is my first Twitter chat, but I am excited to see how Twitter has impacted other educators! #DitchBook

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

A3: I just created my professional twitter, so I don't currently follow any hashtags/chats (except #ditchbook is now officially on my list) I would love some recommendations (I am a pre-service social studies teacher)

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

A2: If my teacher hadn't shown me Tweetdeck I would be so lost right now! #ditchbook

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

I love this idea of educator wanting to offer help to one another. This makes teaching a little less daunting for a pre-service teacher like me! #DitchBook

A1. Just ONE!?

Busting down the silo and realizing that you are not alone. There are thousands of educators just waiting to be your 24/7 PLN. I have made so many connections and grown so much from my Twitter peeps. #ditchbook

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

A1: I think one of the biggest benefits of participating in a twitter chat is the ability to connect with all different educators globally. It can also fit easily into a busy schedule! #ditchbook

My first tweet was part of a twitter chat for my educational technology course. We also have the assignment of participating in a twitter chat, so here I am, excited to learn! #ditchbook

@winey02 Change of plans... My earlier chats did not work out, so I am participating in ditchbook chat at 8pm #educ331

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

@winey02 I will be joining the Preservice educator Chat (pretchat) at 5pm tomorrow (Thursday) if that chat gets cancelled I will join the What is School (whatisschool) chat at the same time. #educ331

A6: "An education system unable to adapt to the speed of innovation in society is obsolete. An education system that is not preparing citizens to be happy and healthy in the world they will live is worthless" (from "Teaching in the Fourth Industrial Revolution pg. 10) #educ331

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

I love this @lyn_huff !

[Lyn Huff @lyn_huff]

Empathy is important because it creates vital human connections and helps students see themselves as part of the world around them. These are all too often left out of technology and, I agree, are important to foster as educators. #EDUC331

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

A5: Empathy cannot be taught with technology. As the technological revolution continues, it is important that empathy remain a constant in our lives and co-exists with technology. #educ331

[Sarah Bales @Bales_20]

@TessCollins19 This is a great answer! How do you think students develop the "need" for solving social problems?
