@GabelSimon Hi Simon! I really like that you chose to share this picture with us. It's nice to see you in action using your education skills for this group of people. What age groups are you looking to teach in the future? #xuedchat

@sonnebornm01 Hey Maxwell! I love your underlying reason for becoming a future educator. :) I love hearing about stories similar to yours; I know your future students will be in good hands! #xuedchat

@LaurenAngelone A1: I think the most important copyright rule for the classroom is knowing that just because you are a student or teacher, does not mean you are able to have access to every source found on the internet. I was unaware of this prior, so I feel that this is a key rule! #xuedchat

3/3 Strategy Step 3: Teacher and students can engage in queer critical thinking in a digital space in conjunction with learning about multiple modes of learning. #xuedchat

1/3 Strategy Step 1: Teachers ask questions relating to reconnecting intersectionalities, such as "How are intersectionalities valued or deprioritized, open or closed, named or not named, implicit or explicit, and fluid or fixed? #xuedchat

2/3 Strategy Step 2: Students are able to consider the socially constructed ideologies of power that are served by media texts so that they are able to understand,acknowledge, and respect that certain ideologies "overlap, intertwine, and are fluid." #xuedchat

@LaurenAngelone A2: To make my classroom accessible in the future, I will provide computer usage for each student in order to benefit their learning process. Rather than provide a computer lab that is only open certain times, having computers in the classroom will better reach needs. #xuedchat

@LaurenAngelone A1: Reflecting from digital divide readings, I was unaware that a large percentage of students were unable to access certain technologies (internet access, computers). My big takeaway would be to contribute to equal access of technology for all students in the future. #xuedchat

I'm Alyssa! Currently a student at Xavier University studying to become an educator! I want to be able to help kids who come from low socioeconomic homes and that are not as fortunate as others. I chose this picture to recognize peace + relaxation in my future class. #xuedchat
