@kehall16 @edtechteam @AorereCollege @stuartkellynz @GEG_NZ Do you ever stop @kehall16 !? 😀

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@mrsforest @gcouros Absolutely! There's a perception that some data (usually standard and summative tests) hold more value than quality formative assessment.

[George Couros @gcouros]

The term "data-driven" needs to be retired. "Evidence-driven" signifies to people something much more than numbers. Thoughts?

I like this quote! Very important to remember what's important. Thanks @mrsfadeji! #edtechteam #leadwild

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@mrsfadeji It's amazing! You can categorise, archive, share, set reminders, add photos, use checkboxes - it is the best! 😀😀

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@mrsfadeji have you tried Google Keep? You might love it for your "to do" lists instead of docs 😀

@benmwhite86 What if WHO drove learning not WHAT? #edtechteam

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@AnnaCoutsolitis @jheil65 We are all learners. I think a challenge for teachers is to also recognise learning outside of the "school box". #edtechteam @jheil65

[Amy Fadeji @mrsfadeji]

Love this thought provoking question. Thanks @jheil65. I can't choose just one though.... #edtechteam

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@misterAOY would love to know the brands/names of the pens that you use.

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@Nyssa76Jones @melliebee sounds like a great idea! Let me know what time you figure out and I'll do my best to be there.

Are you interrupting students' aha moments? Do you believe all students can succeed? Learn by doing! Allow failure! #gafesummit @lhighfill

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

@misterAOY @gafesummit your session was awesome!!! Have been wanting to give it a go and this was just the boost I needed.

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

#gafesummit learning is messy, embrace it!

@NortonJuster1 I am a teacher in Australia. My 8-9 year old students LOVE The Phantom Tollbooth. They have some questions for you..

[Sami Wansink @mrswansink]

Last one...my coffee table. LOVE pretty masking tape from the Reject Shop. Of course I was 1 roll short so will... http://t.co/vOtQCsj7fw
