It’s Day 1 of MASTERClasses. First up - stop motion animation and drone classes. Excited to have T’s here ready to dive in to learn how to use these tools to help students meet tech standards and demonstrate content knowledge. @fcpsoit @Frizzle_of_FCPS @JerryBroyles1 @lmsbarcus

These @FCPSKY educators took their teaching to new heights today with drones! We had such an array of different grade levels and content areas represented, and all walked away with a way they could implement #drones in their classrooms. @DroneBlocks @fcpsoit @JerryBroyles1

@TraferaOfficial has been a great partner for #chromebooks. Winning 💯laptops would help fill the 💻 need for classes which require Windows OS. #istelive #TraferaGiveBack2022

The Lamest Excuses: The IT Department Won't Support It.

Combat this by:
* Give Tech Support enough notice; they want to say "Yes"!
*Explain why
*Give examples of how others are using the tech

Had the opportunity to talk about the future of KY edtech and what @FCPSKY is doing, with @martypark this morning. Glad #ISTELive could bring us together :)

Great session to kick off #ISTELive

The Lamest Excuses in Ed Tech #ISTELive session

There’s no training
There is no time
Administrators will not buy in
The Tech Department won’t help
I’ll get accused of using TOO much tech
Blah, blah, blah, blah.

These are just excuses if you allow them to be.

Lamest Excuses in Edtech: The IT Department Won't Support It

Bridge divide between Edtech and Tech Support

@FCPSKY is great at this thanks to @fcpsoit #ISTELive

Lamest Excuses: There's not enough time
• Don't say "I have something for you to use"
• Tease, don't tell; show end result
• pick moment; not busiest time of year
• Swap something; don't add
• Make it easy
• Don't force rubric change
• Brag; give teacher credit

Don’t do it. I’m not in high school. DON’T DO IT! #istelive
