@MachinePix Awesome adventure. Reminds me of working on platforms as a petroleum engineer in Gulf of Mexico. Used a 'tarzan vine' to transfer between boat and platform.

@CognitiveVerb @alicekeeler The Logitech H800 is the most consistent I have used for connection and sound quality. Having a dedicated dongle avoids the flakiness of a Bluetooth connection. It also has a Bluetooth option (selectable by switch) for devices without a USB dongle option e.g. smartphone.

Advice from an 8th EES student to next years' class: Stay on task and focused. Learn as much as you possibly can, it really pays off. Be open-minded, be yourself, & be willing to collaborate and work together to make amazing projects as a class. This class was like a family to me

Teachers like Jeff are rising above these challenges and doing so much to help students.

It is lonely and quiet at work today, but I am using the opportunity to access my classroom to record video lessons for #Sketching and @OnShape...without the background noise of 3 boys under 5 years old. Kids = noisy videos. :-) #PLTW #SJSD #MmmPopcorn

Impressive leadership among a group of teachers dedicated to educating students during such difficult conditions. Their selfless commitment to our society is admirable.

Thank you @PLTWorg and @LJaneMcConnell for the nicely written article. I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to Brian Bobbitt and all MT's who have contributed to our network and these efforts. It feels great to give to others in these challenging times. @LockportHS205

Unbelievable tragedy for a part of Canada known for hospitality. Very nervous to read the list of victims. This ended a few miles away from where I grew up. https://t.co/XGcPMeYITs

There is a lot wrapped up in this post. #ThankATeacher for understanding why.

The dangers of mathematical illiteracy! If the diagonal is 6 feet, the people are only 4.24 feet apart on the sides, not a safe distance.
