@drevanssantiago @Ststansberry A4) I will use flip grid, zoom, a discord server, and the google education suite to be able to have many layers of engagement for students to use. My goal would be to meet student at wherever they meet online to hopefully get full engagement. @Ststansberry #csubedte4200

@Ststansberry @doctor2pi @Duncannedd A3) The addition of take home hotspots for wifi could be a great way to reach areas that have connectivity issues. It may be cost prohibitive but it would be able to provide internet access to whole households of students @Ststansberry #CSUBTEd

@DrEddiesClass @Ststansberry @doctor2pi @Duncannedd A2) The on-board translation of emails through gmail is a very useful tool for communicating with both English language learning students and potentially their parents as well! @Ststansberry #CSUBTEd

@doctor2pi @DrEddiesClass @teachsci8 @Tech_Buddha @Ststansberry @Duncannedd A1) Flipgrid is a great way to connect classmates with each other especially in an asynchronous distance learning environment. It can help to bridge the gap between discussions and zoom.

@GeorginaLeyvaJ1 @teachsci8 @all_is_number @DrEddiesClass @doctor2pi @Duncannedd @tom_karnes @Ststansberry @TheCrashCourse The use of great video resources like crash course is something that cannot be overstated!

@teachsci8 @all_is_number @DrEddiesClass @doctor2pi @Duncannedd @tom_karnes @Ststansberry A4) I will use google sites in order to get more engagement from my students. the ability to link relevant content to any rabbit hole they find interesting about the topic is invaluable to the learning experience. @DrEddiesClass #CSUBTEd

@FatemaBafagih @Ststansberry @benites_louis @tom_karnes @teachsci8 @DrEddiesClass @brandon_edu @doctor2pi @Duncannedd I agree with your response that the lack of technical proficiency is the biggest barrier to equal access and utilization of technology.

[Braden Benson @bingbongbenson]

@Ststansberry @benites_louis @tom_karnes @teachsci8 @DrEddiesClass @brandon_edu @doctor2pi I think the best way to make technology available for everyone would be for public access to devices like the chromebooks which are being allocated in a lot of local settings. The biggest barrier to entry will be the lack of technological proficiency @DrEddiesClass #CSUBTEd

@GabbiJessi93 @tom_karnes @aavina33 @DrEddiesClass I love the gamification that you were able to introduce to the English Learning experience

[Braden Benson @bingbongbenson]

@tom_karnes @aavina33 A2) The integrated google translate in Gmail is something that will very much help communication with both English learners and their parents. @DrEddiesClass #CSUBTEd

@wintersage__ @doctor2pi @ya_mayna @DrEddiesClass @teachsci8 @Ststansberry @tom_karnes @Duncannedd @Tech_Buddha I agree that the shifting of responsibility to the students for finding information instead of just trying to consume information is a very beneficial part of distance learning and technology in general.

[Braden Benson @bingbongbenson]

@doctor2pi @ya_mayna @DrEddiesClass @teachsci8 @Ststansberry @tom_karnes @Duncannedd @Tech_Buddha Allowing for technology to be the source of information frees up the educator to form the lasting relationships with students that are so important. It also allows for a more direct facilitation of discussions which is incredibly important. @DrEddiesClass #CSUBTEd
