Soundscape! I'd love to introduce sounds, even ones we make with materials and our bodies, to tell a story! #connectivity2015

teachers find a higher level of engagement, learning, and retention when you let students be creative! #connectivity2015

#connectivity2015 Arts integration is not going to be done by one person. It requires the community!

At #tcea15 I learned about the Chirp app that let's devices in the same vicinity share. A start to teaching social media. #connectivity2015

Hands on projects like the tessellations and mobius strips are so vital for learners. They need to DO to learn. #connectivity2015

"We had this idea of how school is supposed to be." Lecture is not the only way. Thanks for shaking it up @web20classroom #connectivity2015

Tip for tessellations: use cardstock to keep the tracer firm. http://t.co/7SrthZOR4Z #connectivity2015

Parents can be the best STEAM partners! They are full of knowledge, especially about things I don't know anything! #connectivity2015

[Brandi Virden @BrandiVirden]

@mwedwards STEAM Partnerships can be from both within and outside the school. #connectivity2015

[Brandi Virden @BrandiVirden]

The learning happens during the PROCESS, not the OUTCOME! #connectivity2015
