New concepts in the value of gaming, Rigorous and fun discussion on AI in education and bias in algorithms. Timely information on options as I figure out a multi-year device fleet update. Day one, before lunch.
Not bad, #IDEACon!

Blown away by the brain power! Grayslake Central is doing great at the Masonic Academic Bowl in Barrington.

Ah, nothing like a hot cup of coffee while watching the power notifications gently fall into my inbox. Up and down, but so far, so good. We were prepared and are stable! Grateful to our team of admins, facilities and techs!

Expanding. And not just because of the food.
Only half done. Already so many useful insights and conversations at the Learning Technology Center - Illinois Education and Technology Conference

@MrMcKenzieGNHS Thank you! An important topic for students and adults. I truly appreciate the opportunity.

@clever @remind101 I'm sorry to ping the top brass, but I'm still without response and need attention on this. Desperate times.... @trishsparks @bosmeny @AnneMurguia @jreffell

[Christopher Thieme @EdTechCT]

I completely understand the start of the school year is rough, but when you can't get @clever to respond to a critical ticket and it's making @remind101 look like they're the problem to teachers, students and parents?Come on,folks. If I'm resorting to X,something needs to give.

[Christopher Thieme @EdTechCT]

Absolutely wonderful podcast on this fractured and vital topic!

Put down that tech and get some dirt under your finger nails!....then come back to tech. Great opportunity to get your garden started and support Agriculture and Sustainability education opportunities @Grayslake127 https://t.co/fCW0vthZBJ

@MStoraasli Thanks for coming! Nice pic. Will be stealing!

Across the plate and in the strike zone. I was just going for the right direction. Honored to be asked to throw today's first pitch by Coach Whalen and the Grayslake Central HS baseball team! Go Rams! @Grayslake_Rams @GoGCHSRams @Grayslake127

[Christopher Thieme @EdTechCT]

Very frustrating experience with @CollegeBoard technical help. If Kafka designed a helpdesk, this would be it. Promises of escalation that never happen. Lost tickets. Empowered passive aggression. The standard answer is to wait for someone to respond that never does.

[Christopher Thieme @EdTechCT]

Honored to be inducted today into the Grayslake Rotary Club! Rotary is providing Merit and Vocational scholarship opportunities for D127 students. Community partnership at its best!

[Christopher Thieme @EdTechCT]

Not just code and wires - this series is rich with insights and open questions on how tech integrates into education. Sponsored by IETL (Illinois Educational Technology Leaders) but topics cross state lines for sure.
