@robinsonk9034 I’ll have to check Nearpod out.

#6 Here is a journal on Common Core. I am beginning to have a better understanding how to unpack standards. scholarworks.waldenu.edu/cgi/viewconten…

#5 I am not currently working in the classroom so I do not have classroom experience with Technology to reflect on. Though, I have learned a lot from this class. I had first hand experience learning about Google Classroom which gave me confidence in using this app in the future.

@devincpatrick Go Alabama First!!

@WeAreTeachers @MattChance1206 Interesting read. Why is the public so disappointed in how children are being taught. I suspect because they see state and national test scores. Not individual classroom and student improvements.

According to Gallup, 73% of parents of school-aged children say they are satisfied with the quality of education their oldest child is receiving. bit.ly/3NhZvOu

@robinsonk9034 Parents (me 2) are so caught up in everyday stresses we struggle dealing with emotional behaviors. Teacher are expected to teach so much more. But I don’t believe it is solely a teachers responsibility. Parents need to be more engaged in their children’s lives and school life.

@MrsRobertsB I love that your articles discusses establishing at standard, either digital or traditional standard. This brings purpose to delivering the content of the lesson and technology use.

Evaluating your classroom technology doesn't have to be a hassle! Choose a corresponding standard, make sure it is engaging for your students, decide if it will support your instruction, and discover if it can be used for assessment. blog.edmentum.com/how-evaluate-e…

My favorite part of this article on evaluating educational technology is setting goals. Everything teacher do in the classroom should have a purpose so setting goals and desired outcomes to your lesson with technology is so important. teach-nology.com/teachers/educa…

@MrsRobertsB Good point! We need to keep teachers motivated and incentivized!

Special Education departments in Alabama are in desperate need of teachers but are we helping or hurting our students by reducing teacher education requirements and qualifications?

@MattChance1206 I checked out resources on mathematics and love the activities they provided.

@dbolton1017 Agree! We need book publications. Too much screen time isn’t good!

“Should schools decline paper books and use only digital?” I think no, as much as our world revolves around technology, children should have the chance to experience books in their true form. Love that a child can gain for books, flipping through the pages as it comes to life.

"Students must have their basic needs met, a feeling of being loved and high expectations set for them. And that’s why I love teaching. I see myself in them, and once they trust me and love me, the light bulbs turn on and the magic happens" the74million.org/article/educat…

I have started prepping myself for the interview process. I am finding many videos of YouTube and varies links about how to prep. I would like to add, know the schools mission statement and make sure it aligns with your teaching philosophy. edutopia.org/article/5-thin…
