@RoxannaSalas @HoernerLisa @Melissa93519457 Thank you for mentioning how this can be overwhelming. This is also a real outcome of the initial of putting yourself out there, but it's also important to expose students to participatory culture.

@HoernerLisa @Melissa93519457 Yes! Putting yourself out there is important. It's exciting to learn that your 3rd graders are engaged in these efforts. This is something that I can also work on!

#Curiosity is critical in order to be digitally literate. Keep wondering. Keep searching. Creating a discussion board where students can continue conversations might encourage connections between student ideas. #USDEDUC562

I appreciate the ease of assigning passages online via #NewsELA, and have found that students enjoy the range of articles provided. Does anyone have other applications that they use for the ELA classroom? #USDEDUC562 @bozandbooks @nleslie_12

@NestorHenrriqu3 Thank you for bringing this up! Thinking through what credibility looks like can encourage our students to build a keen eye.

@Ms_K89B3 @Lynch39083 Yes to digital libraries at all school sites! #letsmakeithappen

Physical classroom norms, (i.e., teachers and peers around you) are what could keep students from getting distracted online. #USDEDUC562 #pressuretostayontask Netflix and study: Why online students are more easily distracted https://t.co/Hphei7Ht5q

@RoxannaSalas @nleslie_12 I appreciate your comparison. Fortunately, there are so many digital tools that can monitor student time on task. However, many have questioned whether or not accountability can form with the use of such tools... thoughts?

@4EDUC562 @Melissa93519457 Yes! It's challenging to balance school demands with different ideas. #teachersneedsupport #seekingresources

While I find myself struggling to participate in online communities, I find students struggling to consider and revise their ideas. It's like I need to press play and students need to press pause. Maybe then can we rewind and watch how far we’ve come. #USDEDUC562 @TWhiteUSD

Whether we choose to read for pleasure, academia, or work, the simple act of reading has evolved. It's about time that we experience the myriad of formats that reading has gifted us. Let's explore and embrace the many modes of reading. #multiplemodalities #USDEDUC562.
