Now daily new cases:
• US arcing up into the tens of thousands of confirmed cases per day; still no nationwide lockdown and Americans continue to travel
• France & Germany possibly joining Italy and Spain in seeing new cases plateau if not dip

If you had one hour a week to learn about whatever you wanted, how would you want to show what you discovered? Think: After one day. One month. 12 weeks. #edchat #teacherlife Bonus Question: What would you learn about?

“Our conversation confirmed my hunch that it doesn’t take a big contest to get students engaged in podcasting. More important are student choice and authentic audience.” #bigplans #middleschool #podcasts

@FeldkampKelly Log in can be tricky, even with seventh graders. Does your school have 1:1 iPads? They’ll only need to log in to Google once, which is helpful. A bonus for Notability is that it doesn’t require a log in, although it does cost money. Our district pays for it.
