Important of Communication in the Classroom #TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco As a teacher, I can help students determine the value of social media posts by offering them information that posts should be inspirational, appropriate, and resourceful/informative. Additionally, they need to know that everything they post online will follow them forever.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco This means that students are accumulating all of the information they can from social media instead of simply consuming the content as a past time, or for fun. I believe that this depends on each individual because some people may consume media more than others.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco Students need to learn social media literacy skills because technology is being implemented more and more in to day-to-day life. Thus, they need to be able to know how to converse with people online in a professional way.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco You can move on from the post by taking a break from social media and talking to someone you trust about it to help clear your mind. This will also give you time to reflect, so you know how you want to rationally deal with the situation.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco When discussing an issue or negative comment, it's important to go in-person or low tech because you're able to read each other's body language and facial expressions. as well as hearing each other's tone of voice to avoid misunderstandings.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@caitlyn_ferry1 @ScottRRocco I agree, it's important to realize when something is overwhelming you, especially online. This way you give yourself the ability to take a break before deciding whether you want to respond, as well as how you choose to respond.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco I would definitely use this strategy, especially if I saw something offensive or off-putting on social media. Especially, if the post was something that made me uncomfortable I would most likely pause and then turn away from the post.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco It's important to be able to transfer information so that you can communicate to faculty members, students, and parents at any point in time. #TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco Students need to be able to develop skills such as collaboration, teamwork, and communication in order to work in any type of field as adults. Thus, it's important for them to learn these skills in school by collaborating and working with their peers towards common goals. #TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@caitlyn_ferry1 @ScottRRocco Hi Caitlyn! I like how you talked about the resource being crucial/necessary for the students and teachers. It's definitely important for the tools being used to be useful and appropriate.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco This question is important because it's always important to ensure that your students understand the material. Thus, by sharing their learning, they can check in with their peers and learn from each other while also being able to rely on their teacher when needed.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@Rachelb921 @ScottRRocco Hi Rachel! I agree, it's important for the students to feel comfortable with the tools that they're working with. This also helps reduce class time for the teacher because they won't have to waste time explaining how to use a new tool.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco Teachers and students can benefit from having a core set of tools because it enables the class to have some consistency and to establish a routine using a "go to" set of tools rather than continuously introducing something new.#TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@MissVictoriaK @ScottRRocco Hi Victoria! Accessibility is extremely important, especially for students who have disabilities or need extra help learning the material. #TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco The author is saying that cauliflower is versatile in the same way that educators are versatile in the ways that they can deliver information to their students. #TEC207

[Dominique Valles @d_valles333]

@ScottRRocco Giving the students the ability to choose how they want to complete an assignment is important because it can help with the student's motivation. This will also increase the student's motivation in the class in the long-term. #TEC207

@MeadowMedina @ScottRRocco Hi Meadow! I completely agree, educational technology is a great way for students who are struggling to receive extra help. #TEC207
