I teach INCREDIBLE children who amaze me with their limitless thinking and eagerness to learn! My students inspire me every day.

A5: I want to take and edit a photo that I’m REALLY proud of!!! And I’ll keep working at it until I achieve my goal. #edtechusf

@kimdarche A4: I totally get when kids are checked out and just can’t check back in. And when they struggle and get off task. I’m going to be much more empathetic! #edtechusf

A3: The other night I was so tired and just didn’t want to edit, but I made myself some fancy pour over coffee and made myself stay up and do it! #edtechusf

A2: The mutiny is with my kids. It’s like herding kittens. Posed pictures just aren’t going to be a thing. So I’m going to work on candids! #edtechusf

@msjschultz @kimdarche It for sure is! I love that you’re doing an online course @msjschultz - such a great idea! #edtechusf

A3: A recent success that I've had incorporating tech in the classroom is working with @NancyGadzala to have the 1st graders go on a Google Expedition to outer space! They shared their wonderings & their questions are guiding our inquiry unit. #USF681Hinsdale

@dbalayti A2: Districts can promote 21st century learning by training and supporting teachers to effectively utilize technology in classrooms. Then teachers can successfully adapt their teaching to support 21st century learning skills! #USF681Hinsdale

[Jessica Salvesen @JessicaSalvesen]

@dbalayti A1: Districts can recruit & retain highly effective teachers by providing effective & impactful PD. Teachers also need research-based resources to use with students & time to collaborate with colleagues across the building and grade level! #USF681Hinsdale

This group used Twistables to test out their design because “they’re straight like straws & pipecleaners” #gotstemd181
