A4/Wrap Up: Advice-The temptation for new, bright, and shiny tech to be the silver bullet is strong. Use what works for you and always try it out before implementing and don't feel like you have to keep up with the Joneses #tldeuno2021
@KelsySherwood Yes, big shout out to @MrWennstedt for showing that to us! My husband has a 7th grade advisory class so I'm going to share the Digital Citizenship during advisory idea with him, too.
A3. Using Common Sense Media’s Digital Citizenship curriculum as a starting point would be helpful. Students should know how to responsibly use the #EdTech, why they are using it, and what could happen if they are not smart about their use. https://t.co/ZyJdz8GMl6 #tldeuno2021
@KelsySherwood Gamification is one of my research interests so I started looking at ClassCraft last spring and it looks like some serious (as in, very comprehensive and involved) stuff! What ages do you think it's best for?
@MrWennstedt I think we're really blessed to have the Digital Learning team that we do at UNO! <3 Very smart, cutting-edge, understanding, and quick to help.
A2: More about how to effectively teach online would be helpful. The classes that I have taken this summer TED 8580 & TED 8590 would have changed my first year of teaching drastically. UNO's professional development series “Humanizing Online” courses were awesome. #tldeuno2021
@ethansrainbow Ethan, since I'm thinking about subbing after my MA, you bring up a really good point that I hadn't considered. The differences in just the basics between each school district probably takes some getting used to.
@MissNeidig@PearDeck April, PearDeck has been mentioned so many times by others in this class that I will absolutely have to check it out. It sounds really useful and I think the name is really cute.
A1: I will 100% be sharing EdPuzzle videos for asynchronous teaching more meaningful & students will be more accountable for their participation with the video. I will also be sharing #LiveBinders with grad students to help organize future thesis! #tldeuno2021
@Miss_Denker LiveBinders is like having a beautiful 3-ring binder on your computer. Here is a 60 second quick view video. I'm using it as my curation tool for class. Channel your inner Leslie Knope!

@MsLewis37427418 Kelly, I've used Seesaw as a parent and really enjoyed it. Spring 2020 my daughter was Pre-K and we did all of her remote school through Seesaw so I got to be very familiar with it. I love the variety of tools that it has!
@HannahRothermu1 Hi Hannah! I have been looking at the ACT program at UNO and thinking about it. I'll have to pick your brain for some info! :) #tldeuno2021
@SNickolaison Hi Seth! My husband, Andy Koehler, was the Librarian at Fremont for several years and I know your current Librarian, Dana! I can imagine that she is an amazing resource. :) #tldeuno2021
