Playing with the new whiteboard tool from @briskteaching Works on iPad too. Our MS math teachers will love this.

Launching season 9 of the EdTech Roundtable. Join us as we discuss Blended Learning, looking at our current practices and asking, "Will it Blend?" @christocarter @iteachoverseas podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/10/0…. .

What are the essentials of teaching? What happens when tech isn’t there to support these essentials? Join us as we get a little dystopian and imagine a world without tech. podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/06/1… @iteachoverseas @christocarter #acamistech

Video is more than just a tool for recording lessons or collecting evidence of learning. Thanks Dan Speed for showing us how you and your students use it to educate, inform, and inspire. podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/05/1… @christocarter @iteachoverseas @ConcordiaSH #acamistech

@jahardman We spend way too much time trying to convince robots that we are not robots.

this is just too much clicking required to login

Two episodes in two weeks!? I guess we had a lot to say and we didn't want to use email. Listen to find out why. @christocarter @iteachoverseas @ConcordiaSH #ACAMISTech #pubpdasia podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/04/3…

Don't listen to us drone on about drones, listen to two awesome middle school students who know WAY more than we do. podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/04/2… @christocarter @iteachoverseas @ConcordiaSH #pubpdasia #acamistech

Has technology maxed out or surpassed what we are biologically capable of focusing on? podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/03/0… @christocarter @iteachoverseas

Teachers who assign work for distance learning, don't assume your students can print the pdf's you send. Many don't have printers. I'm a tech guy and haven't owned a printer in 20 years. #PubPDAsia

@Nsoentgerath Good to see @varga_mel

@B_Sheridan There's a lot of awesome in those boxes!

Using Wonder to discuss questions with people for today’s #pubpdasia. 😎 Very cool! 😎 #pubpd21clhk

A5: Perhaps we stop calling them "21st Century Skills" and just call them "skills" #PubPDAsia #PubPD21CLHK

A5: See ISTE Standards for Educators #7- Analyst iste.org/standards/for-…. #PubPDAsia

A4: 1) Help them understand what distracts them - often they don't realize it. 2) Help them learn to manage distractions with apps like heyfocus.com 3) Turn of all notifications 4) Make school communication channels different from personal #PubPDAsia

A4: We discussed this exact question on our podcast today. podcast.concordiashanghai.org/blog/2021/01/2… Distance Learning has increased kids' screen time, tech addiction & distraction. As these kids return to the classroom, how do we deal with "The Covid Effect"? #PubPDAsia #PubPd21CLHK

A3: There is a mental health toll to be considered if rapid change is the new norm. It is not sustainable and leads to burn out. The welfare of our teachers should be considered along with the welfare of our students. We all know how martyrs end up. #PubPDAsia

A2: AI has potential to take over mundane tasks so teachers can focus on building relationships & interacting with students. EX: Facial recognition for automated attendance #PubPDAsia

A1: Have "just in case" bags ready to send home. Never assume students have basic school supplies at home. Online learning is not all about tech. Prepare for offline off-screen activities as well. #PubPDAsia
