@MattieTKO As a college student I had one professor do this and I thought it was great! My test anxiety is extreme so making exams a smaller percentage of my grade reduced my stress tremendously and genuinely helped me focus more on the material

Evernote is an app designed to create virtual notebooks that can include text, drawings, photos, audio, or even content from the internet. Students can use this tool to take notes and refer to them for other activities. #TechInPedagogy#KnowledgeConstructor
Prezi is a great tool that can be used by both students and teachers to create a fun and unique presentation. As a teacher, using Prezi to introduce the concept of digital citizenship would be a great way to grasp the students’ attention and keep them interested.
A good way to incorporate the students’ ideas would be to group students together and have them create a project explaining the importance of digital citizenship based on what they have learned! #TechInPedagogy and #DigitalCitizen
There are students everywhere… who never liked a subject until they got that one special teacher. So it doesn’t matter what your subject is… you have the potential to be that one special teacher.
Scratch is a visual programming language that students in grades K-12 can use to create stories, games, and animations. Educators, try having your students create a personalized project from this and see just how unique each child really is! #TechInPedagogy#EmpoweredLearner
