One thing I learned from Educational Tech and Design is how to craft a thematic unit that can be applied to every subject area and how to incorporate the ISTE standards and technology into the theme and lessons. #unietd @maggda

At the conclusion of Educational Technology and Design, I am thankful for the knowledge I have gained related to using technology as a way to enhance learning. I am also thankful to be a Google Certified Educator!!! #unietd

I am excited to use the Design Thinking Process to become a change agent in my future school. I’ve learned the importance of communication, collaboration, and understanding to usher in change in the classroom! #unietd

Interactive learning is an awesome way for students to take control of their learning. I am excited to implement a learner-centered classroom and virtual reality to engage student with the curriculum! #unietd

Connectivism is a great concept that I have used as a student and I hope to encourage as an educator in my own students. Connectivism is a great way for students to relate information to themselves, other information, or past experiences. #unietd

@Samanth36218913 I also had no idea that computational thinking can be used in so many ways. It can be used in science, language arts, and math along with computer sciences. #unietd

@EricaMcCain8 So true! It is vital that we teach with global collaboration and use resources to improve our own global perspective. I am so excited to connect with classrooms around the world too!!

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

I am so excited to implement computational thinking in my future classroom and help students problem solve through decomposition, pattern recognition, algorithms, and abstraction!! #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

The Global Read Aloud and Classroom Bridges are two resources that I am excited to use in my classroom to promote cultural competency. It is so important for students to learn to understand and interact with people from different backgrounds and cultures #unietd

Using technology in the classroom is becoming more of a necessity and less of a choice. Within this change is the opportunity as an educator to use technology to extend learning and to go beyond through transformation/innovation! #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

It is so important as an educator to help students develop digital citizenship. Technology is not going away, and students need to be equipped with the tools to use the internet to learn and lead, and given the knowledge to combat the negative influences on the internet #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

Racial and cultural diversity are vital for an inclusive, welcoming classroom environment. We can give our students a diverse education by opening our hearts to the personal experiences of others and our minds to the data and history that has and is keeping people down #unietd

As a future educator, it is important to be aware of what is acceptable under Fair Use and how to use a Creative Commons license. I will rely on the public domain, fair use, and CC licenses for resources in my classroom! #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

Digital storytelling is a great tool to use in the classroom. I am excited to use digital technology in my classroom to give students the freedom to create and an avenue for engaging learning. This art form can be used as a way for students to express what they know! #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

Developing higher order thinking skills in the classroom is vital and helps students unleash their creativity. In order to develop these skills, as teachers, we must model it for our students and given them space to collaborate and share ideas with each other🤔🗣 #unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

Understanding by Design (UBD)allows educators to construct their lessons with purpose and a goal in mind by starting with the desired end result. I’m excited to use this strategy in my future classroom👩🏻‍🏫#unietd

[Olivia Terrones @terrones_olivia]

In a lecture from @shannonmmiller, I witnessed how she was able to transform a school through connection and valuing student choice and student voice. As educators, we must give student's control over their learning. #unietd
