Budgeting for ed tech isn't as easy as just choosing devices - you also need to think about what training you'll need and the tools that you will use with the device. #SBUITL5733

"When it comes to creating effective ed tech training, it’s critical that educators not only know the fundamentals of how to use a tool but also understand why and when to use it" #SBUITL5733

@MsWilton_SBU @DavidGeurin @nearpod It is a presentation site where students use a code to join on their device, and then you as a teacher control the slide that appears from your device. It is worth taking a look! #SBUedtech

[Emily Tidwell @tidwell_em]

@zachvest1701 These tools came in handy when I had to be absent for a day as well. There was no 'busy work' needed because we could continue where we left off! #SBUedtech

[Emily Tidwell @tidwell_em]

@Santoscoy7075 @MrsArens @DavidGeurin My students were so forgiving and thought it was so fun that I didn't always have the answers. I think they were actually more invested because of this! #SBUedtech

[Emily Tidwell @tidwell_em]

@Walter5PVE @DavidGeurin I feel like this was the hardest thing I had to overcome this year. Allowing myself some grace to make mistakes and learn! #sbuedtech

[Emily Tidwell @tidwell_em]

@DavidGeurin A3: Listen to your students! They have great ideas and knowledge to share. #sbuedtech
