@MrDancelED @quizlet Appreciate that, Mr. Dancel #ICT362

...and rightfully so! I was somewhat familiar with Canva but @MichaelGWREDU and @MasonMcDowellBU were the first to introduce me to its transformative potential #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

I think this @MasonMcDowellBU guy likes Canva #ICT362

Three very similar examples of ed tech today with subtle differences that may make them more/less suitable for different purposes. Great job @bellmk39, @MissDeGroot, @kamalwahra, and @pateld361 #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

@pateld361 Thank you, Dhwani! Really enjoyed your presentation as well. Really wish I could have done the demo but didn't want to take up too much time #ICT362

Had been putting off learning about Chat GPT for some time now. I'd heard all about the controversy surrounding it but it was really cool to hear about some real, practical uses for it from @NigelTolley2 #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

Really enjoyed hearing from @Abby_Petersen3 about how ICT is used in other subject areas! Doing so makes me wonder about all the English- and Bio-specific tools that are out there #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

Should coding be a mandatory course? An elective? Maybe a single unit or event embedded into a requisite ICT class? There is a lot of nuance to be explored here #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

Though we'd arrived at something of a consensus, a shared belief that coding should be taught in schools, there were disparate opinions as to how #ICT362

One way for evaluating whether cell phones are helping or hurting is by applying the SAMR model: https://t.co/qoMYyaKr9i #ICT362

As the prevalence of mobile devices rises in our classrooms, we must be wary of both how they may help and how they may hinder our students' learning #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

We need to do better at providing equitable supports for our kids #ICT362

Of Ribble's 9 elements, digital access is placed first. The reason for this is simple: without access, fluency, etiquette, community, and the others become inaccessible #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

Thus, we find it troubling that 67% of school-age children still do not have access to computers. Even in first-world countries like Canada, 3 of 10 students cannot afford a computer #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

On a happy note, Microsoft sent them 25 laptops for class use after hearing about it #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

Some perspective for your Monday. This is Richard Appiah Akoto. He's a Ghanian teacher who started an ICT program for his students despite not having any computers #ICT362

Labster is a high-school oriented alternative to the PHET simulations we've done in class. Really informative, user-friendly interface that's perfect for high school science students #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

When it comes to classroom management, do you think preventative routines or reactive interventions should be used with greater frequency? #ICT362

[Nico Hernando @NicoRHernando]

We often get so caught up in giving compassion that we forget that we need it ourselves. Thus, to avoid compassion fatigue, we need to be considerate of the person inside in the same way that we are for those around us #ICT362

Q5: How can we, as caring professionals, avoid compassion fatigue? #mbedchat
