This is a good visualization and call for those in #multicultural education! #SEDU271 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

@v_is_for_vector Likewise! It's important to put ourselves in our students' shoes. #SEDU271 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

It's important to pace and be patient, especially with all this craziness going on! Put yourself in your students' shoes. #SEDU271 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

What Is Multicultural Education?
An education method that fuses the stories, writings, qualities, beliefs, and points of view of every individual from several social foundations is known as Multicultural Education. https://t.co/VG999gDyln

Especially now, it's important to stay connected, even through the distance! We can make it through together. #SEDU271 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

[Mr. Gallagher @DuffyGallagher2]

This quote is amazing! It is so important to be connected with all your students, so they know that you care!! #RoleModel #character @DrVirtuality #SEDU271

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

@edutopia It can be easy to forget how important self-care is during all this. It's important to stay healthy, both in body and mind! #SEDU271 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Any other educators out there? 😁 #SEDU721 @jcdempsey3 @DrVirtuality

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

As an aspiring English teacher, these tools certainly catch my eye! Check it out! #SEDU183 @DrVirtuality

[Common Sense Education @CommonSenseEd]

Elevating student voice beyond the classroom can be invigorating, and by writing more publicly, students learn how to tune each piece to its readers. Check out these 23 tools that build real-world writing skills: https://t.co/12qABhSagf #edtech #writing

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

It's amazing to see how far technology has advanced (for example, the "Beacon" bots), and I'm excited to see how tech will continue to evolve in the future! #SEDU183 @DrVirtuality

[Dr. Camille Dempsey @DrVirtuality]

What are your thoughts #SEDU183?

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

It's important to be involved and up-to-date with the world of Digital Citizenship, and this is a great week to learn more! #DigCit #SEDU183

[Common Sense Education @CommonSenseEd]

It's day 1 of #DigCitWeek + it's not too late to get involved! All week, we'll tweet out activities that you can use to amplify your Ss’ voices + give them ownership of their digital lives. Stay tuned! https://t.co/tDhia1D2gL #digcit #k12 #DigCitCommit

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

@SFecich @MsShapingMinds @DrVirtuality @gimkit I haven't! Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a look!

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

"Kahoot" (https://t.co/jLnAs67Tdw) is a simple and fun tool that teachers can use to get their students more involved 👍 @DrVirtuality #SEDU183 #pstpln

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

@shyj Wow, interesting! I'll have to look into that!

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Use your resources! There's a delicate balance between lecture and involvement. Make sure students are active participants, not just "benchwarmers" watching and pretending to listen. Use the tech you have in your lesson to keep kids active (use Kahoot, for example) #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Looking forward to your ideas for Q6 #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Many students already know tech's basic functions, so the specific apps and programs should be the focus and what's expounded upon. Resources like Padlet, Edmodo, Kahoot, Quizlet, etc. should be explained if used, not assumed that students already can use. #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Can't wait to read your answers to Q5 #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Make sure that assignments can be completed in more than one way (have a "Backup Assignment"). Most importantly, be understanding with your students. Don't generalize, help each student individually if they lack the technology to complete an assignment. #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Q4 can be a big issue in many areas. #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

It's a good idea to be unique. Making your own personalized tests, designing your own projects, all these can help you develop a "fresh" classroom setting where students can't just copy and paste their answers from someone else. #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Q3 is here #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

I think that it's important to make sure that YOU are teaching, not that your technology is teaching for you. Technology is a vital resource, but still, it's JUST a resource. Make sure your lessons are based on the learning, not the tech! #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Here is Q2, which can be problem for kids of all ages (and adults too). #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Using technology in school is all about making learning easier and more efficient! It's about how it contributes to the growth of knowledge for the students and the medium at which said knowledge is taught. #NT2t

[Julie Szaj (She/Her/Hers) @shyj]

Here is Q1 to get us started! #NT2t

[Dustin Steiger @BeyondAspiring]

Heyo! I’m Dustin Steiger from @Edinboro in PA. I’m a freshman student and an aspiring high school English teacher. In my old classes, we used a lot of technology, especially the Google Apps in journalism. #NT2t
