In the article, How to Add Rigor to Any Lesson, Unit, or Assessment by Terry Heick, #1 Necessitate a transfer of understanding is crucial. Transfer requires students to apply/churn knowledge in new ways. Encouraging students to do this naturally is best! #VIBE @VirtualVirginia

@mtechman I’m so excited to get this!!! 📚🤓

[Shanna Rao, NBCT Career and Technical Education @srao223]

@aTT40 Yes, thanks Alfred...I've used that for one-pagers but there are some good shapes and art clips that they could use. I've also used Slides and PowerPoint for class logos and badges as well. I'll let you know how they do with these! 😀

[Shanna Rao, NBCT Career and Technical Education @srao223]

My CTE Entrepreneurship students are creating logos for their business projects. In the past, I've used Publisher and Photoshop. A student recommended Pixlr today. What are some other recommendations for high school students that I may not know about? #edtech #DesignThinking
