A3: Part 3 I found the twitter chat format to be very engaging, thought provoking and intellectually stimulating. It kept me on my toes and the challenge of expressing in 140 characters was a mental workout. Thanks again to everyone who participated #SREaglesEd
A3: Part 2 My biggest takeaway is that tech is a tool and there is no substitute or replacement for caring, thoughtful, informed, skilled teachers. #SREaglesEd

Excerpt From: Liz Kolb. “Learning First, Technology Second.” iBooks.
A3: Part 1 "Just as I have never heard of a child that learned to read simply by having a book in their hands, it is rare for software alone to create learning gains without other instructional supports" pg 154 #SREaglesEd
A2: Co-use w/tech integration allows extension of "learning beyond what they would learn left on their own.p. 17" J. Fouts @galileoleaders wisely said "the one who talks learns" Also a way to balance the potential of isolation of tech use. #SREaglesEd
A1: Part 2 Ss are at such different levels. Tour or Sandbox learning allows Ss to explore and observe and then co-engage to share learning. Also I think this prepares Ss to develop strategies to self direct when encountering a new tool. #SREaglesEd
A1: Part 1 I fall back on Guided Practice and GRR as a modeling strategy with tech but I've been thinking that the software tour or sandbox learning may be a better approach in many situations. #SREaglesEd
A4: CS7 The power of reciprocal teaching & an authentic audience resonates. Also the combination of literacy and science while integrating tech. #SREaglesEd
