Excited to share the publication of this practical & research-informed resource that shares the insights of many Ts & leaders who worked tirelessly to build an #onlineelementaryschool. #onlinelearning #elementaryonlinelearning #K12onlinelearning #edtech https://t.co/9GKdrywtsr

With pleasure! Thank you for having us.

@KentPekel How could you not accept this bribe?

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

It was a pleasure presenting with/colleagues @rosaslee & Eric Billiet last week @amsdmn on @MnDeptEd’s recently awarded @EdNCES #SLDS grant.

[AMSD @amsdmn]

Thank you so much to Maira Rosas-Lee, Lana Peterson, and Eric Billiet of @MnDeptEd for their presentation this month to the @amsdmn Board of Directors — using data to expand access to student-centered learning, as well as pathways to careers and college. Very informative!

So excited to see @irvspanish continue sharing the power of PLN with preservice teachers and helping them grow a network! @stcloudstate @scsucoeld

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

It was fun to share a glimpse of what we have been working on w/New Code Academy. Gatekeeping in K-12 #onlinelearning needs to stop. Schools need to take ownership of helping Ss equitably gain the knowledge & skills needed to engage in the modality. @AMRummel @hollyskadsem

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

The Minnesota education AI guru @jontfila sharing his research and personal experience teaching w/AI. #embraceit #ETLS

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

Full circle moment. @design2research sharing the 11 year history of @MicrosoftFlip. An incredible #edtech tool born in Minnesota changing education and creating space for #youthvoice. #UMNproud #ELTS

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

Yay! After months of planning, #ETLS is finally here. @smbeaverson is kicking off the day to a packed room of #edtech leaders. Thanks to @MicrosoftFlip for hosting us. It will be a great and aesthetically pleasing day in this beautiful space.

@000Dave It's giving Will Arnett

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

It was so fun to co-write the #theburtonbrief this week w/@hollyskadsem. I appreciate how @Rodriguez_UMN features students, staff, & community, not just professors & deans. It makes me feel seen and that my work is valued. TY to @cscharber for nominating us. @UMN_CEHD

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

This is what my dissertation was on! #studenttechteams are a common strategy schools use to support #edtech ecosystems & teach students technical & soft skills not common in traditional classes. Yet there is a lack of research on impact & design guidelines https://t.co/rWI4rJ2SOZ

[The Minnesota Star Tribune @StarTribune]

South Washington County schools launched a pilot program to train teens to repair district Chromebooks. With the extra help, leaders say they are "way ahead" of where they were last year in preparing the laptops for fall classes. https://t.co/vvjy0KS1kC

@Andy Per instructions: I am listening to #daddydiaries, thank you for recording the book, you deserve a #grammy @RecordingAcad

[Lana Peterson @tyLanasaurusrex]

Guilty. However, in my experience, anything labeled retreat tends to be more fun, offsite, and has free food. See you on Friday @CSforAllMN for our retreat!

@HelmMatthews @NiklasNorman1 @marciaxthree Higher and a lot weirder.
