This has been my favorite class at UVA thus far. Very useful/relevant, teaching me skills I have already used outside class. #TeachTechF15

Productivity involves an improvement in the quality and time it takes to accomplish something - no deterrents from the goal! #TeachTeachF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

The rubric is a way for teachers to monitor their progress and engagement with the technology that is available #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

Tech can be used in class to promote student independence, engagement, and communication. It's useful at home and in class! #TeachTechF15

AT begs the question - could any technology that aids in the learning process be considered assistive, regardless of IEPs? #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

Assistive Technology is meant to help students that may have learning or attention disabilities, such as those with an IEP #TeachTechF15

Interactive whiteboards aren't meant to display info, they are meant to engage info. Students should hold the Smart pen too! #TeachTechF15

This new bill targets low income students, which could help to close some of the socioeconomic divide in schools as well #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

County initiatives for tech devices and wireless connection are certainly a starting point for eliminating the digital divide #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

I am curious what the range on these kiosks is, what if students parents can't get them to the wireless hotspot? #TeachTechF15

@futuremscarr Thanks, Aly! Last month, we release a design series that you might like to check out: http://t.co/9PynH1vh8i ^@JackieMJensen

I love BrainPop! It is a good way to present info to students in a visually appealing & fun way, a break from a normal lecture #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

NYC DOE is smart: Set strict rules at the onset of social media use, and then it can become a positive and interact tool #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

Responsibility on social media is something students need to learn, so why not use it in school to demonstrate! #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

To me, PiktoChart is the most effective use of tech for displaying summarized information. Could be student or teacher made #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

Digital storytelling can serve as a hook to get students engaged in the topic of a lesson or unit #TeachTechF15

[Aly Carr @futuremscarr]

Using the story format for a lesson is a great way to keep students engaged and help them to better remember the material #TeachTechF15
