Last session of this #KEDCgrants Elevation Summit, and I ended it with someone I've only met online! @Bumgardner_KL Great information about how we can better our online presence for @kedc_epic @KEDCGrants

and the most relaxing session 🏆 award goes to...Pranayama, Dharana, and Dhyana 🧘‍♀️ Cara Thomas did such a great job! Focusing on breathing and how it can relax the body for teachers and students! @kedc_epic #KEDCgrants @KEDCGrants @KyWriteRight @jchammonds @MalayiaWhisman

Learning about @KnowtTeam with @EdTechKelly during my #KEDCgrants Elevation Summit evening session. My first time hearing about Knowt! 💥

Summers in Lexington right after school lets out has been the trend the past 4 years. Who does that? Wonderful educators from across the state who love what they do and are always learning. KEDC has made that possible each and every year! #KEDC1 #KEDCgrants @KedcARTS

@JamieCorneliu19 @KEDCGrants @KedcARTS @KingWendy_m @jmattrock1 @JamieSaylor83 @DrJWEvansJr You are amazing! The photos are truly fantastic!

Spent the past two days working on over 2,000 images! 📸Pictures will be coming soon to all you amazing educators! Sporting my new shirt in honor of all of you! @KEDCGrants @KedcARTS @KingWendy_m @jmattrock1 @JamieSaylor83 @DrJWEvansJr

Cara Thomas instructed us in Pranayama, Dharna, and Dhyana - how we can help calm students through breathwork, concentration, and meditation. @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve #KEDCGrants @carathomas

Elevation Summit Day5 kicked off a perfect conclusion to an amazing conference! Kentucky Chautauqua brought history to life with Obadiah Ewing-Roush's portrayal of abolitionist John Fee and the beginnings of Berea College. Eye-opening! #KEDCGRANTS @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

Elevation Summit Day 4: full day of amazing sessions and fellow educators! Great learning: history of Alice Lloyd, KET Learning Media, Google Earth, My Maps, and other Google geography tools were all part of the day! #KEDCgrants @KEDCGrants @JerryBroyles1 @kedc_achieve

Such an amazing tool for teachers and students! Knowt combines things I love from other tools into a one-stop shop! Thanks to @EdTechKelly for showing me how to navigate this program. @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve @KnowtTeam #KEDCgrants

The end of a wonderful day of learning at Elevation Summit, Day 3, spent with some of the best educators I know! #KEDCGRANTS @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

Visual storytelling is important for educators, but students can use this information, as well! #KEDCGRANTS @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

Debra Faulk brought the history of Nancy Green and her portrayal Aunt Jemima to life this afternoon! The Kentucky Chautauqua program presents history in a memorable, engaging way and makes lessons from the past relevant to today. #KEDCgrants @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

I could not have been more excited to see that the Elevation Summit keynote speaker was a storyteller I've long admired, Bil Lepp! Learning how to better incorporate his stories and storytelling, in general, into curriculum was invaluable! #KEDCgrants @KEDCGrants @@kedc_achieve

Thanks to @KingWendy_m for the truly useful session on the SIFT strategy! Being able to identify misinformation is an invaluable skillset for learners of every age, and for educators, as well as the general population! #KEDCGRANTS @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

An important - and fun! - aspect of #KEDCGrants Elevation Summit is collaborating and networking with fellow educators! There is so much we can learn from each other! Great day of learning. @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve @MCMSLAROCKSTAR @HopeLPhipps @wowimali

Day #2 of Elevation Summit kicked off with keynote speaker Dan Rothstein with The Right Question Institute. Teaching students to formulate their own questions is a key to higher lever learning. Such an important concept for educators! #KEDCgrants @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

I was so excited to continue the day's learning with these last two sessions! #KEDCGRANTS So many ways students can use AI appropriately and effectively, and so many amazing ways students can use Canva to show what they know! @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve @edtechwithlisa

Wonderful start to 2025 #ElevationSummit! I never learn more than when I'm engaged with a Kentucky Chautauqua presenter - Aunt Molly Jackson was no exception. Lisa Nydick shifted my focus to AI apps for educators - amazingly useful time saving tools! @KEDCGrants @kedc_achieve

Such an amazing, really fun workshop with the International Spy Museum!!! Truly fascinating and students would love this! @kedc_achieve @IntlSpyMuseum @KyWriteRight @kedcgrants @DrJWEvansJr @jmattrock1

There are so many uses for AI in the classroom for both students and teachers. We can't tell students to pretend it doesn't exist - they won't! We have to teach responsible, ethical use. Thank you, @edtechwithlisa @kedc_achieve @kedcgrants @KYWriteRight @DrJWEvansJr @jmattrock1
