On International Women’s Day, I’m reflecting on the future we all want for our daughters: one where they can live out their aspirations without limits. And I’m celebrating some of the women who are building that future for all of us today.

I would introduce the process of "speed dating." It's fun, fast, and allows for free exploration at their own pace. Students and teachers can then decide for themselves which apps or sites they prefer. #BCSNCTwitterChat

[Paul Huggins #teachwithpurpose2day @Devem]

Q3: What process would you suggest to teachers before they decide to use a new application or site with students? Like Twitter or Clips? #bcsnctwitterchat #AppleClips #pD2PL @BeaufortCoSchNC

[John Small Elementary @jss_small]

A2: Digital citizenship must be incorporated into all content areas. Students are held accountable regardless of the subject area, and smart tech practices have become a necessity both in their academic and social lives. #BCSNCTwitterChat

[Paul Huggins #teachwithpurpose2day @Devem]

Q2: How can teachers incorporate digital citizenship into their content?
#OER #BCSITL @BeaufortCoSchNC #PD2PL #BCSNCTwitterChat

[John Small Elementary @jss_small]

A1: OER supports an engaging learning environment through exploration. Students and teachers learn to proactively explore and experiemnt with multiple resources that are most likely out of their comfort zones through trial and error. #BCSNCTwitterChat
