@Kriket01335608 @teachsci8 @all_is_number @DrEddiesClass @doctor2pi @Duncannedd @tom_karnes @Ststansberry The Stock Market Game is awesome. I use it myself. It's a great tool for evaluating investing strategies, without putting your money on the line. That's great you introduce your students to the stock market.

@missj_dominguez @teachsci8 @doctor2pi @all_is_number @DrEddiesClass @Duncannedd @tom_karnes @Ststansberry Breakout rooms are great. The option to collaborate in a group setting, but have the setting small, so it is less intimidating, is great for students. You benefit students both academically and socially--a win-win.

@teachsci8 @all_is_number @DrEddiesClass @doctor2pi @Duncannedd @tom_karnes @Ststansberry My content area is math (high school), and both Khan Academy and Edmodo have excellent supplemental lessons / videos available for students. The numerous options inspire engagement, are free, and are always available.

@Moniluv4luv @Ststansberry @benites_louis @tom_karnes @teachsci8 @DrEddiesClass @brandon_edu @doctor2pi A lot of the tools available are free. This is one of the benefits of technology, especially the open-source stuff you can change for your particular need(s). The issue though, is access. I would prefer the tools cost money, but access be free and universal. Pipe dream, I know.

@_alexisr20 @Ststansberry @teachsci8 @brandon_edu @doctor2pi It will take original ideas to make technology accessible to all. It won't happen in any absolute sense due to money constraints, but this is a wonderful idea that should be copied wherever and whenever possible.

@Ststansberry @benites_louis @tom_karnes @teachsci8 @DrEddiesClass @brandon_edu @doctor2pi We can make technology available to all community members by providing more access points. There's already access at libraries, but we can expand on this. The biggest barrier to community-wide technology is money. It's always about $$.

@ramirezalondraj @tom_karnes @aavina33 @duolingo @doctor2pi I, too, like duolingo. The ability to match one's native tongue with English is the most efficient way to increase fluency for ELLs.

@GabbiJessi93 @tom_karnes @aavina33 @DrEddiesClass The ability to make a challenging process more fun is one of the many benefits of technology. And, while some programs are bland, Teach Your Monster to Read is actually quite enjoyable.

@tom_karnes @aavina33 Kahoot! is a fantastic tool to help ELLs. The ability to make a potentially frustrating experience more fun is a win in my book. The audiovisual learning games and assessments add spice and fun to the learning experience.

@DrEddiesClass @LeslieRendon10 @doctor2pi @ya_mayna @teachsci8 @Ststansberry @tom_karnes @Duncannedd @Tech_Buddha @Flipgrid It's hard to really get to know your students through a webcam. I like Flipgrid too, because of the way you can get to know and understand your students quirks / personality.

@KelseaKnight1 @doctor2pi @ya_mayna @DrEddiesClass @teachsci8 @Ststansberry @tom_karnes @Duncannedd @Tech_Buddha I agree. Direct conversations are a great way to keep your students engaged.

@doctor2pi @ya_mayna @DrEddiesClass @teachsci8 @Ststansberry @tom_karnes @Duncannedd @Tech_Buddha You can use technology for a great many things. Personally, my primary uses will be that of collaboration and communication. I love Padlet for collaboration, and the Remind App for communication.
