@Melissa68445526 @MasiaNeu @imiyapan @ruettene If we consider the fact that victims under-report harassment and abuse outside of the internet, 33% is unfortunately probably lower than the actual number

I LOVE that we’re talking about equity and access at #SlateSummit @Technolutions

@imiyapan @Melissa68445526 @MasiaNeu I think that's a big appeal of gamifying things for me, because there's way less stakes in failing a stage in a game than failing an exam (especially if that game then sets the kid up to do better on the exam) #EDU6333

[Elle Higgins @ElleMHiggins]

In every cover letter I've written in the last two years, I've boasted about my ability to turn failure into a learning opportunity, but it takes a bigger emotional toll that I ever admit. The importance of letting kids fail makes bouncing back easier in the long run #EDU6333

@bwatwood @MasiaNeu when I asked my brother he said "multiple choice" so clearly not as invested in the edu side of things. I would also personally expect formative over summative, but it would be interesting to see! #EDU6333

[Elle Higgins @ElleMHiggins]

My brother had A LOT to say about gamification in education! like, way more than I thought he would actually. here's a thread of his thoughts #EDU6333

I'm at my parents till sunday if anyone wants me to ask him anything 😂 #EDU6333

indie developers are also better at this than the big dogs. he mentioned specifically a game called "through the darkest of times" that's a twist on the usual nazi-shooting genre where you play as a civilian instead #EDU6333

very interested to hear what K12 teachers think of Gleason's call for lifting the social media ban in schools in the textbook this week #EDU6333

@bwatwood @MasiaNeu I say this while still actively using Pinterest for recipes, writing inspiration, activities for when I was a nanny, etc... #EDU6333

[Elle Higgins @ElleMHiggins]

@bwatwood @MasiaNeu You also see a lot of stolen/reposted images on Pinterest. Sites like that (I cringe to remember my hs obsession with WeHeartIt) are bursting with un-sourced, re-posted content, but thrive bc of the sharing aspect #EDU6333

[Elle Higgins @ElleMHiggins]

@MasiaNeu And under-served minorities are Flint, Michigan. It's an incredibly apt metaphor, especially considering how the Internet /could/ be so much more accessible than it is, yet continues to be a resource out of reach for those who need it #EDU6333

[Elle Higgins @ElleMHiggins]

Digging for details to create my social media plan has told me that a lot of the info regarding the dos and don'ts of social media are implicit rather than explicit. It's good that ppl have an understanding, but it's hard to hold accountability without rules to reference #EDU6333

the yale school of music lists both policies and best practices. I especially like the point about accuracy. "If you share something that you later find to be in error, be candid about the mistake and correct it immediately" https://t.co/aLVHIBcZrQ… #EDU6333 #bp6333Spr19
