Elementary teacher for 20 years. I have taught 2nd-5th. I want to be more effective in using technology in my classroom, so I can help others do so as well.
Need a tool/site (preferably free) to allow students to record their voice and/or video. If it is compatible for Google Classroom digital learning, that would help.
An exciting week checking flexible learning environments at 3 of our #PersonalizedLearning Environments pilot schools who had installs over Spring Break! Loved seeing collaboration, flexibility, and choice in these spaces! #WeAreSFUSD
Learned a lot from Kevin Brookhouser's Hangout video. Challenged to look at evaluating the students' completion of tasks and learning rather than the results of the project. This approach should allow more learning and creativity. #edtechteamonline
The Project Based Learning teacher's role is a guide and facilitator for learner-centered activities. PBL also focuses more on the learning process and student collaboration and less on the end product. #edtechteamonline
Just watched the Hangout with Dan Ryder. The Brick a Book activity is a nice way to allow students to share their learning in a creative way. Enjoyed hearing that students' creations are about the thinking and not the art.

Enjoyed the Flipped and Blended learning Hangout videos. Encouraged to get started with videos to support my students’ learning experiences. Great tips on searching YouTube. Also excited to learn about the H5P resource. #edtechteamonline
Digital resources and tools can provide us with many opportunities for formative assessment. This can give students ways to show us what they know and help the teacher see how effective the instruction is to the learning needs. #edtechteamonline
I'm 🤯! Did yall know you could create barcodes in Google Sheets?! 1. Enter the scanning ID number in the cell, 2. Change the font to the Libre Barcode font, & 3. Add beginning and ending astricks to let the scanner know where to start and end....then BAM! @NISDGoogleGuru#tcea
My students never cease to amaze me. I always use the example of drawing the American Flag when explaining how functions simplify our code. A 4th grade student surprised me by not only creating the flag, but he one-upped himself by creating one from 1777 too ❤️ 🇺🇸 ❤️ @codeorg
I would like to get ideas and from others on Twitter and/or Google+ that will help improve my teaching. I would also like to contribute ideas and resources through Twitter and/or Google+ with others and not just be a consumer. #edtechteamonline
