As social media & tech expand, it’s important to expand our strategies to combat cyberbullying. Whether it’s K-Uni, it’s important to research + invest in programs that reduce/prevent this online occurrence! #CTL1617#PLN

Homework is typically the bane of students and the Achilles heel of teachers. So what do you do when they aren't turning in homework?

Loving the book recommendations in this thread!!❤️📚 If you’re a math educator, take a look at the great resources listed here. I’ll definitely be doing some summer reading! #CTL1617#PLN
@ArunaBhalla99@BriannaTan726 Adding onto this thought! Give each group a paint chip (free from Home Depot) - shades indicate their level of understanding (light = less, dark = more). Then you can gauge the understanding of the whole class more easily from a quick glance! #CTL1617#PLN
Today, we recognize the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia as we work to bring awareness and stand up for inclusion and diversity to ensure everyone is made to feel welcome. #IDAHOTB
Question for fellow STEM educators: have you had a positive experience using social media in the classroom, or for assessment? I have struggled to get digitally creative while teaching math and am excited for suggestions! #CTL1617#PLN
@antoniomongillo@TEDTalks I think AI could be a great tool for education. For example, I had ChatGPT write me a lesson plan with a great minds on and consolidating activity. This could totally be used to prevent teacher burn out, as it frees up our time! #CTL1617#PLN
“[Social justice] is a way of teaching and being that supports high-level thinking and learning throughout our lives”. 🕊️ I agree! Implementing SJ in our classrooms is necessary for students to develop those 21st century competencies! #CTL1617#PLN

We’re still thinking about how New Orleans high school students Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson blessed a mathematical trail.

@misscraftymath is one of my favourite teacher-influencers on instagram! as a math educator, i love her resources and her relatability. she inspires me to make math as fun (and stylish) as possible :) check her out✨ #CTL1617#PLN#WhoToFollow
Great webinar coming up on May 17, 6:30pm EDT! Examine how teacher well-being impacts student learning outcomes. Let’s destigmatize mental health by taking care of our own. #CTL1617#PLN

@RebeccaQian9 Hi Rebecca! Great question. I have found that implementing any sort of interactive game or activity gets them excited. Kahoot, Mentimeter, and Google Jamboard are great resources I use for ‘minds on’! #CTL1617#PLN
@BriannaTan726 thanks for sharing this with me! I’m currently tutoring multiple Grade 10 students who are learning trig now - I’m going to see if I can incorporate this in my sessions with them!👏🏻 #PLN#CTL1617
Here are some of my favourite teaching resources that I’d like to introduce to my #PLN !🍎 These are some amazing tools that have boosted student engagement, improved planning time, and have made learning meaningful. #CTL1617
