While a LMS isn’t the flashiest tool, it’s one of the most heavily utilized. Effective use is most impactful for students & parents. Starting the year w #Canvas vocab review #edtech #edtechcoach #backtoschool

First day of #ISTELive was fabulous! Learning a lot! 📈

Went to an amazing session where I ran into @mrsuteachestech.bsky.social. Introduced a bunch of educators to @edutopia.org and met lots of Edutopia fans. Got to spend time w/ @mirplo.bsky.social, too.

Excited for what day 2 has in store!! 🤩

Think-Pair-Share has been a classroom mainstay since the 1980s. It helps increase participation, reinforce key concepts, and aid in recall, professor of English education @toddfinley.bsky.social writes.

But even the strongest learning strategies can get boring if they’re overused.

Over the past few years, I’ve become more and more passionate about considering the student experience, especially with #edtech. Check out my article about how Wearing the ‘Student Hat’ can impact the classroom.

Wearing the ‘Student Hat’
Working to understand the students’ experience of the class gives teachers a way to see where they can make improvements.

Had a great visit with @magicschoolai.bsky.social yesterday to share insights & give feedback about using AI Image generators in the classroom. Love working with a company that cares so much about teacher voice. #MagicSchool #AIinEducation

Sometimes it's just as important to show students what NOT to do in the classroom. Check out my PD in 60 Seconds for some ways @magicschoolai can help make this EASY PEASY.

Used the “I Can’t Draw” AI image generator in @padlet.com today with this wonderful teacher. Students said “it showed me what I was thinking but in a picture” 🥰🥰 #edtech #edtechcoach

Classroom management isn’t static. It isn’t 5 rules on the first week of school. It’s fluid and it changes. Check out this class expectations chart. Print it as a poster, laminate and grab an Expo to set expectations on the daily. #teachertip #edtechcoach #teachernerd

Presentation bullets too long? Slides have too many words?
Use the Summarize feature with Raina in @magicschoolai.bsky.social to summarize and simplify for your grade level. Such a helpful, time-saving use of AI. #teachernerd #edtech #techcoach #teachertip
