@AutumnHenkenius I agree. We and our students can benefit a lot from learning plenty about digital citizenship. #tldeuno2021

Wrap Up: As we become a society more and more rooted in technology, I see Ed Tech playing an even larger role than it does today in student learning. I’ll be excited to see what new technological advances we come up with to use. #tldeuno2021

@MrsNovotny98 @MiZ_JS_ @MrWennstedt That's a good point. I ran into similar problems during Zoom classes, especially when we were trying to adjust settings. #tldeuno2021

@ethansrainbow Free is key!

@razorsenglish I totally agree. If it's not used appropriately, Ed Tech can be quite detrimental. #tldeuno2021

A3: Teachers need to consider their own students’ familiarity with technology as well as their access to technology. They should also consider whether adding edtech to a lesson will enhance student learning or be a detriment or distraction to learning. #tldeuno2021

@MrsNovotny98 I definitely used Quizlet a lot during my undergrad. It provides such a great study format.

@BirkholtzB Kahoot FTW!!!! #tldeuno2021

@MsBond18 I love Google Forms! It's such a great way to get answers quickly and efficiently. #tldeuno2021

@AutumnHenkenius These Sound so cool. I'll have to think about how I can use these in my classroom.

[Allison west @amwest95]

@tierra_hills The "read to me feature" sounds great. I can see how that would be incredibly helpful for many students. #tldeuno2021

A2: My favorite Edtech tool is Kahoot (which is an online quiz game) because my students love it, it’s super engaging, and it allows me to gauge what my students have learned. #tldeuno2021

[Allison west @amwest95]

@MrsNovotny98 True, having such easy access to so much is wonderful, but I can see your point about it also can be a bad thing or perhaps a distracting element.

[Allison west @amwest95]

@missgoaley I love that you say that technology enhances instead of replaces. That's so key. #tldeuno2021

[Allison west @amwest95]

@MrThome4thGrade I like your point about increasing communication. #tldeuno2021

[Allison west @amwest95]

A1: To me, educational technology means the technological resources that can be used to enhance our teaching as well as the process of learning to use technology that will best support our own and student learning. #tldeuno2021

@SydneyZerzan I agree! I once had no backup lesson when the wifi went down and it was terrifying.
