With so much accelerated learning planned for the coming school year, some teachers are digging deep into cognitive research to find ways for students to learn new material faster.

“Do you ever find yourself giving a student the same feedback over and over again?” Screencasts allow students to watch personalized, evaluation videos as many times as they want.

@LauraK06385883 Excellent idea - given the age range you may want to consider a class twitter account controlled by the teacher.

@Katey85493619 Well done Katey

@MartySp22957009 You came up with some great suggestions - but remember the purpose of twitter is to make your thoughts and ideas succinct. So how would you post this to the class in one or two threads?

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@AnajhaB Great - given the age range you may want to do this as a class activity with the teacher controlling the account.

@AllisonDushack How is the teacher (given the age range) using twitter for this lesson?

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@mth6133 Great lesson idea!

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

Let's see what great lessons are ahead. EDLT-525-901 use #525Summer21 and EDLT-325/525-900 use #325525Summer21

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

Excited to see what lessons/activities #525WINTER21 and #325WINTER21 come up with this term.

@JacksonJandell Excellent - you could also have students take on the persona of a signer and tweet based on that person.

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@HillaryStarini1 Excellent idea, I would also suggest that one student could start the story and then everyone adds to it - somewhat like our Wiki this week.

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@tara8612 Good question, but be sure to define what you mean by young? Also, could the concept of Twitter be used without really using Twitter? Would it have the same effect?

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@MrsOjasoo Great idea - you can also do a write-along exercise whereas one student starts the story and then each student contributes the next section using the class hashtag.

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@wic40 Excellent, some teachers create worksheets that look like the twitter box and have students write their "tweet" out there.

@murro_heather This is a great lesson for teaching research skills and digital citizenship

[EDLT525_325 @Edlt525_325]

@YasmineShamsel1 Fantastic a great way to teach students digital citizenship skills.
