@caranorth11 @ChristineLocher I do! Itβs always fun to hear what people see on the shirt before the realize itβs dogs. I often hear, βare those flamingos?β
Story I learned last night:
I started Girl Scouts in first grade and was an active scout until I was 17 (12th grade)βdid ALL the GS stuff and loved my scouting experience. I was a GS national delegate.
My troop, 1001, was in Detroit and almost all black.
On behalf of The Ohio State University, I want to express our horror and disgust at the brutality and inhumanity we witnessed this week in Minneapolis.
Students, assuming we're all doing online learning again in the fall, what do you want your profs to keep doing/stop doing/start doing? (Faculty tweeps, please RT)
@ParissAthena If real, sharing this may be a violation of that studentβs FERPA rights. Especially since her name and course of enrollment is shared. π€
A12. @derekbruff expanded my thoughts on authentic audiences (AA). Previously, only considering experts within that field of study to be AA. Now, seeing fellow learners as an AA through peer-to-peer teaching or learners developing resources for other learners. #intentionaltech
And, technology can be simple. Shiny technology is appealing, but if it doesnβt facilitate learning itβll create a barrier to ultimate goals. Simple (and effective) over shiny!
A1. The #intentionaltech book cover perfectly summarizes two key ideas around technology use in teaching - technology should always be intentional, and can often be simple. π(thread)
We intentionally turn on a light in a room when light is needed to facilitate other things weβd like to do in that room. Similarly, technology selected for teaching should be intentionally identified to aid/facilitate learning goals.
