@joe_lsu1999 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick Oh, how I love that statement! I think this will definitely be on my wall next year, like @SimoneauxS52498! Promising progress sounds so much better than promising success! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@ronniehohmann @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick My students see me try and fail on a regular basis! It's most important to find what works best for THEM, not for me! That means trying a few times before we get it right. Seeing me "fail" lets them feel ok about trying new things too. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@joe_lsu1999 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick I believe this is what my department head thinks. There is a blatant refusal to use tech in some classrooms by veteran teachers because they think tech is a replacement, not an enhancement. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@SimoneauxS52498 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick Some students are stuck with Edgenuity or Proximity classes because we don't have teachers for them. They WANT to be taught by a live, human being. They are starting to resist tech in other classes. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@SimoneauxS52498 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick I totally agree. We have long-term subs who are glorified babysitters because they don't even try to teach. They expect the students to log into Google Classroom and complete work with no help. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@ronniehohmann @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick I completely agree. We have students taking proximity courses online due to lack of faculty. Those students are learning nothing, and it stresses them out. They NEED teachers in the classroom! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@madelineaperk @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick That’s exactly right. Anyone can put a student on a Chromebook and tell them to do an assignment. But who models the skills they need to complete it? Our kids need teachers! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@joe_lsu1999 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick I definitely agree. Tech literacy is something that should be introduced in upper elementary. It makes no sense that my high school students still don’t know how to use spell check on a Google Doc! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@SimoneauxS52498 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick THIS! My students hate using anything that doesn’t resemble social media. They still want to work with workbooks and pencils. It’s unfortunate that computer classes aren’t a requirement! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@joe_lsu1999 @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick This is the sentiment I wish some of my colleagues would have. They refuse to use tech because the traditional way works for them. They don’t want to learn a new way. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@ronniehohmann @Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick I feel the exact same way! To me teaching isn’t just about what we do IN the classroom, but what we take on outside as well! #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A5 I’m BOLD in that I take the curriculum I’m given and try my best to get creative with the method of delivery. I try to use tech for engagement but I also know when it is and isn’t appropriate. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A4 pt 2 Students don’t see the value in Slide decks, spreadsheets, or even proper word processing skills. They learn enough to get by and complain that anything more is too hard. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A4 pt 1 Students are not willing to learn technology that MATTERS. They can create #Tiktok and #INSTAGRAM content all day, but can’t create a creative, engaging Slide deck. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A3 This means that although technology has a place in the classroom, it should never be the main component. Students cannot sufficiently learn from technology alone. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A2 Technology should enhance teachers’ instruction, not replace it. 51% means that teachers should retain their expertise and remain the focal point in the classroom. #LSU4507

[Angela Briley @abriley31]

@Drtamssen @Wes_Kieschnick A1 As teachers, we should be aware that we do not know EVERYTHING. We encounter teachable moments every day, mostly through our instructional practices. There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to teaching or learning. Always be ready/willing to learn something new! #LSU4507

@Drtamssen how would you reply to an educator who refuses to learn about or use ed tech tools like @nearpod to enhance instruction?
