Thank you @Glennr1809 for sharing great information with us tonight. I learned how important it is to communicate with parents and provide updates about how/what their child is doing in the classroom throughout the school day. #tec207
@ScottRRocco A16: I will explain the positive aspects of social media but that there are dangers as well. I will talk about their digital footprint and how to be careful when posting online. Not sure how yet but I think it would be beneficial to do activities with them about this #tec207
@ScottRRocco A15: This means that students need to understand what is real and what is made up online instead of just believing it is real. I think this can be possible if students are taught the dangers of something that could possibly be fake #tec207
@ScottRRocco A14: It is important to teach social media literacy skills because they respond to things quickly and they post quickly. It's important to teach them about analyzing certain posts and finding out what is real and what isn't #tec207
@ScottRRocco A13: There are a few different ways to do this. The number one thing would be deleting the post from your mind. When you think about it constantly it will stress you out. By deleting it you won't keep returning to check the comments or posts #tec207
@ScottRRocco A12: I think the main thing would be how your message is being read. If you are responding on social media, you can't hear the tone of voice or facial expressions. So even if you say something a certain way online it can be taken a different way. #tec207
@ScottRRocco A11: I would use this title when I get overwhelmed with what I'm reading on social media. It is important to take a step back and recollect before responding. #tec207
@ScottRRocco A10: A10: Schedules for all students are very important. Following a schedule helps a child move through their day. I will make sure not everything revolves around technology #tec207
@faith_sheetz @ScottRRocco I like how you mentioned students can clarify anything they don't understand. I mentioned something similar about sharing ideas with each other if someone is stuck or out of ideas! #tec207
@ScottRRocco A9: Technology that supports collaboration is essential. Working together with their fellow classmates will help them learn from each other and share ideas with each other. Finding technology that supports this is important. #tec207
@ScottRRocco A8: I think as a future educator this is important because children want to share what they learn. However, if they were to share incorrect information that will affect the class. A tool to check understanding before sharing would be important #tec207
@Rachelb921@ScottRRocco Hi Rachel! I like how you mentioned getting students comfortable with what they are using. When they are comfortable with the tools, I think they will be successful when using them.
@ScottRRocco A7: I think the author suggests this because there should be tools that are crucial for you to use. I think this helps students/teachers because it allows them to determine if the resource is necessary to be utilized #tec207
@ScottRRocco A6: The author is saying similar to cauliflower, technology can be used in a variety of ways. There is no limit to how edtech can be used (like cauliflower). There will be many different ways in which I can utilize tech in my classroom. #tec207
@rebekah_lama@ScottRRocco I think this is a great idea! It will also keep children engaged in what they are learning because they will be doing something of their choice! #tec207
@ScottRRocco A5: I think one way I will implement choice into my classroom is by giving multiple options for something. For example, if the children are reading they can find a book they want online and read it or they can have it read to them. #tec207
