What an amazing experience of learning and teaching for everyone!

[T.Light @tlightgpe]

@aleaglen I’m not against digital content, I just think that questioning is important to determine if it is value added. Busy work can be a packet of paper or an online activity. Question the activity and its academic value- no matter how it is delivered.

[T.Light @tlightgpe]

Question: Has technology helped teaching or become a way for lazy instructional practices?

[T.Light @tlightgpe]

@aleaglen Yes! One argument presented about worksheets is the lack of academic rigor? I have seen the equivalent of “worksheet” type activities online, but because it is digital it becomes accepted.

[T.Light @tlightgpe]

@aleaglen I think that good teaching happened before tech tools were available and good teaching can happen with tech tools. My concern is that disengagement may happen in person because of a reliance on some tech tools.

We have to do math with students, not do it to them.

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

“There are these widespread myths that you’re either born as a math person or you're not. Somehow, you have the right brain, or you don't,” says bestselling author @joboaler on rethinking how we teach math. @edutopia @GonserSarah https://t.co/DM43Ih62eA

@aleaglen @LCPS_Math Small group instruction. This allows engagement without distraction and students feel better about taking risks.

Y’all. I think copyright laws are basically BS that are designed to protect corporations and not creators. HOWEVER it’s important to keep in mind that reading books online for kids is a copyright violation UNLESS you have permission from the PUBLISHER (not the author). If the...
