Respecting Indigenous people as educators involves recognizing and valuing their distinctive knowledge systems, traditions, languages. It promotes a more inclusive and comprehensive educational experience for all students, and fostering cultural comprehension.

It is empowering to see incremental changes like this within school boards. HCDSB embracing indigenous culture to brings awareness and justice to its community. We must respect indigenous cultures in our communities on the land that we all share 👏 #PLN #CTL1617

@LuqiGeng34127 I think that establishing clear guidelines and expectations regarding the use of social media in the classroom is priority and then designing collaborative activities that require students to work together and interact with their peers. #PLN #CTL1617

@RebeccaQian9 Hi Rebecca, yes I agree with Zambri. Gamifying the learning experience by introducing elements of competition, rewards, and challenges really help motivating students! Kids love competitions.

Allowing pupils to experience and utilize AI should be permitted, but I AGREE there should be limitations. As I have always believed, AI should never replace humans, as emotional connection and support cannot be replicated by machines. #PLN #CTL1617

Students are much more likely to have used ChatGPT than their parents, a new survey finds. https://t.co/Jo93zZ9QB9

Technology provides students with access to a vast amount of information and knowledge. However, not every kid has the access to digital tools and internet. Glad to see that TDSB is helping closing the digital gap and ensure technology is accessible to all. #PLN #CTL1617

Technology can expand classroom boundaries as students explore the world beyond their community and connect with and learn from people and experts around the globe. Help close the digital divide and ensure technology is accessible to all students. Details: https://t.co/IZKmU400Qy

@BriannaTan726 I recall that one thing my high school math teacher did was allow students who were proficient in the material to give lessons to the other students, thereby helping them consolidate their knowledge while the rest of the class caught up. (But it did not apply to all class tho)

Flipgrid is a great place that promote student engagement and participation in discussions by allowing students to record short videos to share their thoughts. Which is more engaging than traditional text-based discussions. https://t.co/Y5iDhyhqMK

What are some potential long-term effects of an excessive reliance on technology in the classroom on students' ability to learn and develop essential abilities such as collaboration, communication, and creativity?
