I appreciated the concept of this weeks RWLD that "average is a myth." None of our students will be exactly the same- so how will we reach them?

With the wide variety of resources that are available nowadays, Interactive Learning should be a standard for education today. Who wants to listen to a boring old lecture when you can get hands on experience and learn at your own pace? I know my answer! (Lec12-Z) #unietd
Technology is such a helpful tool considering each student learns differently. The opportunities with technology are endless! Don't get too intimidated by all of the resources out there, and allow your students try new programs! #unietd
Global collaboration is such an important concept in the classroom. It's useful in teaching technology and a subject of your choosing, while integrating other cultures and lifestyles! #UNIETD
I love the idea of the Equity Affirmation for Teachers to keep our minds and hearts in check ❤️. It can be easy to get wrapped up in curriculum but our students have cultural needs! Be diverse. Stay Diverse. Think diverse.

When considering how to design and teach in regards to using digital literacy, it's important to consider students' emotional, cultural, age-appropriate needs, etc. They're not going to grasp what you need them to if you're not meeting them where they're at.

Creativity is the glue that holds all other forms of learning together. Choosing to instill creativity as educators determines educational value.

Teaching is creating an environment where learning can occur. This statement may not be overly profound but when we go back to the basics of why we do what we do, it's such a good reminder of a teachers "bottom line." 🍎#unietd
Thoroughly enjoyed @shannonmmiller's lecture about using technology and resources to our students' advantage. I love how she recognized that she isn't going to know everything and how this opened up the opportunity for students to teach her. #unietd
