Closing: The Twitter (X) Slow Chat was a fun experience! It was great to collaborate with fellow students from other EDTE classes. I loved seeing what everyone had to say and sharing ideas. I looked forward to it every evening. Very insightful! #EDTE4200#CSUBTED@Duncannedd
@tom_karnes A4) I would reach out to colleagues in my department. This would provide insight on whats working around campus, and what’s working for my specific subject. It would also help to reach out to teachers who have taught my students previously. #CSUBEDTE4200#CSUBTED@Duncannedd
@di_ana_l11@Ststansberry@DrEddiesClass Hi Diana! I think this is great advice. Many things seem intimidating to us if we don’t do them. Getting over that initial introduction is always the hardest part! I’ve never heard of MyLexia, I’ll have to check it out! #CSUBTED#CSUBEDTE4200@Duncannedd
@Ststansberry A3.) In terms of tech tools in the classroom, the most consistent would be Google Translate. However, I have also heard of the app called Talking Points which automatically translates messages! As for advice, I would say patience is key! #CSUBTED#CSUBEDTE4200@Duncannedd
@MadiGrayteaches@doctor2pi Hi Madi, great response! I also used this app when I was in high school and found it to be very effective! As you mentioned, it can be used by parents as well, making it more accessible to students who don’t necessarily own a cell phone. #CSUBTED#CSUBEDTE4200@Duncannedd
@doctor2pi One resource I would recommend is the online game Kahoot. Not only is this a fun and effective way of assessing students, it’s also free! Teachers can make their own study sets specifically for their students, taking into account inclusivity. #CSUBTED#CSUBEDTE4200@Duncannedd
@cdparedes4200@doctor2pi Hello! I love your point on the option to use Google translate. This is not something many consider but there may be a language barrier between parent and teacher so using tools such as this is a great idea! #CSUBEDTE4200#CSUBTED@Duncannedd
@TiffanyIR@doctor2pi@tom_karnes Hi Tiffany! I like how you brought up Parent Square as I don’t see it mentioned very often. My younger brothers school district uses this and my mom loves it! From what I’ve seen, the app is easy to use and a great resource. #EDTE4200#CSUBTED@Duncannedd
@doctor2pi A1.) Technology can be a great source of communication for a teacher & parent. Of course, keeping in touch with one another so as to discuss a students needs would be the best option. This can be done through email, Microsoft teams, or Class Dojo. @Duncannedd#CSUBTED#EDTE4200
