@jessicamdemers Agreed! every lesson can be "upgraded" with some type of technology, you just have to find the right one :)

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@CassandraBar95 Pinterest has been such a useful resource. There are always activities I haven't considered and new ideas to try (and sometimes fail at). #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Students can gain so much when they are able to utilize tech, have options for topics and mediums, and have the option to work together on assignments. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Technology is a growing importance and need in today's classroom. These final assignments are tech. heavy and allow students to understand content on a deeper level than just reading #INDT501

@CassandraBar95 Nice strategy! Now students only have to ask clarification questions, not "what is the assignment?" #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@jessicamdemers I love this! I see this in the classroom ALL the time. This describes pretty much exactly what students are thinking. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

I enjoyed the peer review assignment. I liked having a new set of eyes on my work and the suggestions will help to improve my unit plan. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Augmented reality activities like the ones we created could be great for homework and giving hints along the way for a guided activity. #INDT501

I made a GIF. Here's what it shows... #Cleveland is still segregated along the same racial economic barriers put up in the 1940s. And guess what: "a tool of segregation" from that era is making a comeback. Listen👂& learn why ➡️ https://t.co/PC856KWnRi #DividedbyDesign @WCPN

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

The idea of augmented reality is still a new and interesting thought for me. I was apprehensive about this because of how new it was to me, but I actually think is useful in the classroom and could be used year-round #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

The flipped lesson allows for more group work & one on one time vs tradition. They learn more through experience than long lectures #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@R0YG81V I absolutely agree. This is comical but true! Students want a mentor who is "with it" and not using tech. is so not "with it" #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@sroper101616 Scavenger hunts are great for history & science, imagine students out in the national forest or even on a GoogleTrek of the Andes! #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Using TedEd was a neat experience & I liked how the template is clean, organized, and easy to navigate. I love using short videos! #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

I still feel like I have yet to master the art of the flipped lesson, but so glad I could practice this week. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@oszilevelek93 Agreed. Now anyone can be the bully no matter stature, age, gender, or race. Cyberbullies have what I call "keyboard courage". #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Cyberbullying will continue to occur so long as technology is available. We can mitigate through awareness & social intolerance. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

Cyberbullying is targeting a victim through an electronic device with the intent to intimidate or cause harm. #INDT501

[Josie Yorgason @j_yorgason]

@R0YG81V Agreed. I'm a huge fan of TedEd on Youtube. I found a lesson that was a great hook for my atmosphere unit called, How Heavy is Air? #INDT501
