One major takeaway I got from "Blended Learning in Action," is that using videos as homework in a Flipped Classroom is more effective if those videos are paired with assignments which get students to think critically about what they have watched. @Catlin_Tucker@tsschmidty
Technology can be used to engage and bring out creativity in students by giving said students the tools and opportunity to better express themselves in their work. @tsschmidty@ChapmanU#EDUC451Chat#BlendedLearning
The key takeaway I got from Chapters 5-8 of "Blended Learning In Action" is that assessments can be used in a variety of ways, such as pre-assessments, formative assessments, and summative assessments. @tsschmidty@Catlin_Tucker
Blended learning creates a culture in the classroom that allows students to learn, but also allows teachers to learn. Keeping up with modern trends allows teachers to better design lessons to that students can enter the workforce prepared. #EDUC451Chat@tsschmidty@Catlin_Tucker
This blog post really struck a chord with me. We shouldn't punish students who struggle. Failing is part of learning, and teachers should be there to help recover and push forward. @tsschmidty@ajjuliani#EDUC451Chat#PBL https://t.co/by5JFcCeHF
It is imperative that we bring creativity and innovation to the classroom because it allows students to see learning as a fun and diverse experience, and hopefully encourages them to learn outside of the classroom as well. #designthinking#EDUC451Chat@spencerideas@tsschmidty
#EDUC451chat Technology can help classrooms be more inclusive to students with special needs by giving them more ways to express themselves and connect to other students without the restrictions of the normal classroom setting.
A2: Community service is a good fit for GT students because it allows them to feel that their work is important and that their efforts actually contribute to their community. #gtchat
A1: Community service learning is the integration of community service into the curriculum aiming to teach civic responsibility as part of the students' education. #gtchat
What I found intriguing about Flipgrid for ELL students is that it allows students to learn English while participating in discussions where they have their own personal voice. #EDUC451Chat@tsschmidty
This podcast really helped me better understand what students want from their teachers. Educators should focus on diversifying lessons to better engage students. https://t.co/tESI071EBc #EDUC451Chat@tsschmidty@coolcatteacher
I believe the biggest benefit of the HyperDoc is its flexibility. It can be easily changed if something isn't working as hoped, and it can be tailored to better fit different student's methods of learning. @tsschmidty#Educ451chat
A2: Passion-Based Learning is great for GT students because it allows them to better devote themselves to what they are doing. It also allows them to develop better skills in the subject of their choice and enjoy doing it. #gtchat
A1: Passion-Bassed Learning is a method of learning which focuses on engaging a student's interests to better facilitate learning, as well as encourage students to explore fields which interest them. #gtchat
Drew Dudley's talk on how we can redefine leadership in a way that would encourage people to help others through difficult times is inspiring. Highly recommend! #EDUC451Chat@tsschmidty

#EDUC451Chat I think schools should incorporate social media into classrooms to a certain degree. Although it in the classroom can be distracting for students, it's a great way to get students interested and connected to the world outside the classroom. @ChapmanU@tsschmidty
