@edtechwap As others have said, this is a great find! I love that the articles connect to help build the readers understanding of social learning. I lead me to another article that explains why we should adopt social learning in our classrooms!

@Mavelez901 I like how this article lists four simple things we can do to incorporate social learning into our classrooms. Flipped classrooms, peer teaching, real plays, and simulation/gamification are all ways we can engage students in social learning.

@Mavelez901 I like how this article produces four domains for what it means to be a teacher and a learner in the 21st century. There has to be a balance between traditional, foundational skills and digital literacy skills. Great find! #6711sm6

This scholarly source examines the relationship between social learning theory and social media in the classroom. Our students learn differently because of their experiences with social media! #6711sm6

I got to participate in #projectslice by @BIEpbl today! What a fun (but mentally draining) day! Can't wait to learn more at implementation day tomorrow!

@edtechwap This is a great blog post! It does a good job of explaining a connection between constructivism and technology. The internet can help us balance learning, discovery, and creation, all while encouraging exploration and collaboration! Good find! #6711sm5

@Mavelez901 This source gives access to so many resources and posts on constructivism! The visuals and graphic organizers are well done and visually pleasing. I liked the different constructivist teaching strategies that were written about! #6711sm5

@Mavelez901 Great article! PBL is a big buzzword right now but not everyone knows how to use it effectively. I really liked the point about the importance of collaboration and how it should be purposeful and intentional. Good find! #6711sm5

Learning about basic electronics and creating your own #makerspace project is a lot easier than you may think. https://t.co/0093dkR4lN #STEM #makerED

This popular source does a great job of explaining how contructivism works in our classrooms but can also clash with high-stakes testing! #6711sm4

@Mavelez901 I really like this source! There are so many suggestions of simple things we can do in our classrooms to promote cognitive learning! I like that they break it down to five key ideas: remembering, understanding, applying, evaluating, and creating. Thanks for sharing! #6711sm4

[Lauren Lackaff @misslackaff]

@Mavelez901 Very easy to understand and I like the flow charts they used! As they said, promoting cognitive learning theory in the classroom does not take much effort, you just need to plan out your lessons to incorporate higher level thinking skills and techniques! #6711sm4

[Lauren Lackaff @misslackaff]

@edtechwap @effortfuleduktr Thanks for sharing! I really liked the section on schemas and how can we use them remember things, like the acronym ROYGBIV. I also like the authors view on using tech to enhance learning, not as a replacement for thinking #6711sm4
