@Ms_Swift_BHS@Ms_Swift_BHS I completely agree. If we end up transitioning to remote learning again, it may be easier if students are used to having and navigating their own device. 1:1 will be new for my students too. @tldeuno2020
@MrsSchroll@MrsSchroll I love how you worded this. Ed Tech should be used to meet student needs, but it can also be fun and engaging for students. #tldeuno2020
#tldeuno2020 Final Thoughts: Last year, I was hesitant to take the risk to use a variety of Ed Tech in my classroom, but my goal for this year is to take on the challenge and help my students grow in their ability to use and navigate technology. #tldeuno2020
@mrsj_bramhall Time management can be very challenging with young students. I think this is why I sometimes hesitate to incorporate new technology in the classroom. My students will be 1:1 in the fall. I want to be brave and try new things with technology. #tldeuno2020
@ms_swoboda19 "Technology should have a purpose and not be a filler for instruction."
This is so true. Technology is designed to enhance teaching, not replace it. #tldeuno2020
A3: It is important to consider student safety and privacy prior to using technology resources. Educational technology is designed for students of a variety of ages. It is important to check the privacy policy to ensure student data is not shared or saved. #tldeuno2020
#tldeuno2020 A2: During remote learning, I discovered Epic as an Ed Tech tool. Epic provided my students with access to thousands of books from the comfort of their home. I enjoyed viewing student logs to see what they were reading and how much time they spent reading.
@maestra_mayra Hi Mayra!
It is so important for students to become responsible technology citizens. This will be a priority in my classroom this fall when we are 1:1 with technology. #tldeuno2020
@B_Stuedemann Hi Becky!
I could not agree more! Technology should be used to enhance learning and prepare students for the digital world we live in. #tldeuno2020
#tldeuno2020 A1. To me, Ed Tech is finding, learning about, and using technology to enhance student learning. Education Technology expands and reinforces learning with the use of unique technology tools and apps.
#tldeuno2020 Hello! My name is Danielle Dyer. I am a second-grade teacher in Millard Public Schools. I do not have a lot of experience integrating technology in the classroom. My students will be 1:1 with i-pads in the fall, so I look forward to using it more often.
@MrsNielsen1 Absolutely! As I learned more about UDL it is really providing more support to make learning accessible for students. Simply put, implementing UDL is good teaching.
I found that I do use some UDL guidelines naturally and others I need to be more intentional about. Good stuff!
#tldeuno2020 A3: #udl is a favorite hashtag of mine. The resources, research, and infographics inform educators about Universal Design for Learning. All students are capable of learning. Sometimes as educators more supports can be put in place for students to be more successful.
