@PearDeck I signed up for a webinar "stay connected to students w/pear deck" and the only time available is 12pm. Which is during work. Any webinars offered after school hours?

@heymrsbond I love this thread! I can't wait to ask some of these to my students. Looking through some of the responses I can see some great potential debates. It's a great way to introduce persuasive writing to them. Thanks for the post!

@Ms_Willey8 @annkozma723 @SDMS_Berlin Yes! I did this with my class last Friday. Except they just brought their pets to our zoom meeting. The students loved it! It's the most participation I've gotten on zoom since virtual school started.

@PearDeck I love seeing the student responses go "live" on the teacher dashboard. Also seeing who doesn't respond to questions. It makes it easier for me to see who I need to check in with.

This is for anyone who's had experience with Nearpod and Pear Deck. Which do you prefer and why? Any information would be helpful. Thanks! #edtech #eduawesome

@stacyyung @PearDeck @stacyyung This is such a great idea! I'm new to Pear Deck and didn't even think of this as a possibility. From what I've read through the thread I think I've got the idea down but is there a way we can watch a video tutorial or does @PearDeck already have a video on this?

@DitchThatTxtbk Don't just rely on email. Phone calls go a long way.

@TanKHuynh This is a great activity for all my students to try. It would be interesting to see how different groups come up with a story based off of a similar image.

@historysandoval I use Google slides to create a weekly agenda for my students. In my bitmjoi class, I have an "office hours" sign with a link that takes them to a Google Doc where I list students I want to see and their scheduled time.

Thank you for creating this great resource! Definitely something I can see my students using as they get used to all the different Google EDU apps. #edtech #GoogleEDU

@Flipgrid Thank you!

On flipgrid, how do I add emojis when typing the directions in the prompt box? #FlipgridForAll #EduTech #teacher

Looking for a resource on digital badges for my students to help with motivation during DL. Hopefully free and can be customized. #edtech #distancelearning

Been homeschooling a 6-year old and 8-year old for one hour and 11 minutes. Teachers deserve to make a billion dollars a year. Or a week.

Need guidance. I want to use green screen in the class. Is it necessary for students to have access to an iPad? Or can it work if only the teacher has an iPad? Students have access to Chromebooks provided from district. #edtech #PLN #edchat

An awesome idea to add to students "About Me" #googleslides
My students did a slide show the first week of school, this will be a great addition to include. #edtech #GoogleEdu #cuiedtech #PLN

[Jake Miller @JakeMillerEdu]

I love this idea that @tonyvincent shared on last week's episode of #EduDuctTape: have students create an "about me" slide in #GoogleSlides that includes a silhouette of themself! #EduGIF #GSuiteEdu #GoogleEdu #GTTribe #DitchBook https://t.co/GQKLDkbdr8

@ShannonOliveir1 Wow! This 11 year old gets it and can explain it better than some adults.

@eduprotocols A3: Ss don't do the work because it's not interesting to them. Work should be engaging, offer opportunities to collaborate with others, a menu of options for how they can complete the work. #EDUProtocols #edchat #cuiedtech
