@ScottRRocco A16:
As teachers, we need to educate students on the value of what they are posting. They should be educated on the effects a post may have. The internet doesn’t go away

@ScottRRocco A15:
Students should find credibility in the knowledge they are consuming rather than believing everything the read.

@ScottRRocco A14:
Social media literacy skills are important to everyone on the internet. Being able to know the difference between fact or fiction is very beneficial giving students this skill can benefit them in terms of research or even just making friends online.

@ScottRRocco A13:
It is best for me to move on by responding to the best of my ability and leaving it in the past.

@ScottRRocco A12:
For more personal connection we need to hear the tone of voice of the other person. We lose that in a typed conversation. We do not want to come across wrong

@ScottRRocco A10:
Using tools like google calendar allows everyone to be on the same page with the class schedule and homework that may be due.

@ScottRRocco A5:
Collaboration in the classroom is very important because we are teaching the students to work together. If we do not cater to that idea, the tool may not be best for our classroom.

@ScottRRocco A8:
This question can help identify the tools students are already accustomed to. It can also give teachers new tools to consider.

@ScottRRocco A7:
Having tools you use regularly allows students to get familiar with the way they work. If you are constantly throwing new tools that take time to learn at them, to be helpful, may actually be more harmful

@ScottRRocco A6:
Cauliflower was made into a very diverse vegetable. It has many uses. We should use technology in the same way as we use cauliflower and have many different purposes in one thing.

@SiobhanWes5 @ScottRRocco Hi Siobhan, young students often times get their opinions dismissed because they are kids. It is so important to factor in their opinions and interests to better teach them.

@ScottRRocco A5:
Choice in the classroom is important because it allows the students to be interested and invested in certain activities. When people like something they are more likely to engage and be happy about engaging.

@CrystalMDeLeon @ScottRRocco Hi crystal, being able to have access to the material at home is very important. We would not want a child to feel left out or fall behind because they do not that the proper technology or internet access at home #tec207

@ScottRRocco A4:
Accessibility is so important. There is tech to support different accessibility needs such as translate. The appropriate tools can be very beneficial in a classroom.

@mlle_singh Hi stef, i agree that the specific reason we are using tech is of value. If we do not have purpose behind it, there is no point.

@ScottRRocco A3:
Our beliefs determine which types of tools we may choose to use. The example of collaboration in the article is good because it shows how we may take what we believe is important as teachers (working together) and use tools to support that (google docs/slides)

@larascarril @ScottRRocco Hi Lara, knowing your audience is so important! Using tech that could be too difficult or not accessible for the students may set them up for failure.
