Q6: Some important trends in educational technology are: providing students with a digital platform (like Google Classrooms) for creating/submitting work, using social media for collaboration, and 1:1 devices. #brandyourclass

Q5: I have many co-teachers and fortunately they are all open to new ideas. Many times, I’ll use a digital tool in class, and then if my colleagues are interested, I’ll help them use it. #brandyourclass

Q4: When I can’t collaborate in person, I collaborate by emailing, sharing Google docs, and sharing digital folders. #brandyourclass

Q3: In my classroom, students mostly use iPads for reading apps and vocabulary games, but this year I’m hoping to incorporate more social interactions through digital media. #brandyourclass

Q2: I would say my digital “tattoo” is limited. While I do have many accounts, some professional, some personal, I’m very specific about what I post and very cautious when creating school-related posts. #brandyourclass

Q6: Technology can enhance lessons by improving student engagement, addressing different learning styles, and helping w/ data collection. Tools like Pear Deck, Kahoot, and Padlet make it easier for reluctant learners to participate and teachers to monitor progress. #MCtechsavvy

Q5: Technology should be considered a "tool" because it's useful in certain situations. It may not be necessary, or the best option, in all situations, but it can definitely be used in a way to facilitate completing tasks #MCtechsavvy

[Colleen @Cmcewen13]

Q4: When integrating technology, I try to make sure the technology is supportive of the assignment and not just fluff. One new tech tool I'm excited to use is Flipgrid, it's a great way for my students to respond to inquiries using oral language skills #MCtechsavvy

[Colleen @Cmcewen13]

Q3: I think technology is essential to the learning process since we've become so dependent upon it. Students need tech skills in today's world. However, I do think we need to foster our personal connection with students, so we need a healthy balance between the 2 #MCtechsavvy

[Colleen @Cmcewen13]

Q2: In the classroom, I use an eno board (it's like a smart board) and ipads for students to work with interactive language learning tools, but I'm looking forward to adding some new tech ideas! #MCtechsavvy
