@HeatherHook4 @techteach_csub I agree with that idea! This would allow parents to know what their kid is doing in school for their peace of mind and to contribute to school environment and home environment cohesiveness. #techquestportfolio13

@techteach_csub offer a tech night for the parents & introduce them to the tech being used in the classroom along with any tech/apps/programs we ask students to use at home. Go over digital citizenship. I am lost helping my kids because of the tech. #techquestportfolio13

@techteach_csub I think that sending pamphlets with information about the tech used in school is a good idea. It could outline what the student is doing online as well as teach the parent about online safety. Teachers and parents should be on the same page. #techquestportfolio13

@nbaughman3 @techteach_csub I agree. I think that this is the kind of topic that can either be a very boring lecture or an engaging classroom discussion. #techquestportfolio12

@techteach_csub I think doing whole class discussions would be an effective way to introduce the topic and discuss the different categories. Small groups or one on one would also be beneficial to reiterate and show examples of what to avoid and look for. #techquestportfolio12

@techteach_csub I think that one of the best ways to teach this sort of thing is to make the students aware of conduct expectations as well as the danger of the internet and how to avoid it, and then essentially let them explore, lead by their own curiosity. #Techquestportfolio12

@Jandrade011 @techteach_csub I think so too. Khan academy is a great tool for students and educators alike! #techquestportfolio11

@techteach_csub Khan academy is great to help students further on homework but also good for teachers for lesson plans, training, etc #techquestportfolio11

@techteach_csub Khan academy is a tool that I relied upon during lecture lacking math and chemistry summer courses. I plan on incorporating this as supplementary means of explanation for some topics. #techquestportfolio11

@MatPrasser @techteach_csub I agree entirely. Google is going to be a huge resource in our teaching futures but there is also definitely a lot to learn! My students definitely aren't going to be the only ones with homework. #techquestportfolio10

@techteach_csub I would need to complete the fundamentals training because I have a lot to learn when it comes to integrating Google into my classroom #techquestportfolio10

@techteach_csub I think that I would choose the fundamentals training. I think it is good to start from the beginning even if you are somewhat familiar with a topic already. looking forward to learning! #techquestportfolio10

@mikgonzalez11 @techteach_csub I think that it also makes lessons about different places more tangible to the student and allows them to discover these places on their own thus creating discovery and thinks for them to talk to each other about that are on task. #techquestportfolio8

@techteach_csub I think google maps and google earth could be very beneficial in a history or geography class. They’re easy sites to navigate and embed and it could be interactive and fun for the students to see different views of their world. #techquestportfolio8

@techteach_csub I think that Google Maps and Earth are excellent tools to inspire discovery and curiosity. One element that I think is especially geared towards this inspiration Is the Google Street View which allows you to view places as if you are driving through them. #techquestportfolio8

@lballock1 @techteach_csub I really like the idea of video instruction for that reason! students can access their project instructions in video format anywhere they have wifi or cell service and can play the video as many times as necessary for clarity! #techquestportfolio7

@techteach_csub I think that it is very important to give students instruction in several different ways. I plan on using a great deal of variety in my instruction. One big plus of video instruction is it can be accessed from anywhere and replayed repeatedly for clarity! #techquestportfolio7

@mikgonzalez11 @techteach_csub I really like the Google Suite for all of its super intuitive and useful applications. I haven't experimented with it yet but I plan on using Google Classroom with my students.

@techteach_csub The rubric I created was for a “health presentation” and I did it through google docs. It was pretty easy to create and the video you created was very helpful. I don’t believe the rubric allows for peer evaluation but I think it can be easily modified to #techquestportfolio6

@techteach_csub The rubric that I created was for peer evaluation after a group project or presentation. This is to allow students to anonymously tell me how cooperative their peers were during the project. #techquestportfolio6

@Jandrade011 @MatPrasser @techteach_csub From the things that I have seen about prezi it looks like a great way to present information in logical chunks. I really like the zoom idea they incorporate into their slides and animations.

@MatPrasser @techteach_csub Love prezi, all the different themes they have is a plus as well and to me seems more fun than PowerPoint #techquestportfolio5

@techteach_csub I think that I will most likely rely on Google Slides because of its easy incorporation with the other Google applications I plan to use on a regular basis. I would like to experiment with Prezi because of its thought provoking animation capabilities however. #techquestportfolio5

@mredeker3 @techteach_csub That sounds really helpful, I should find that playlist there have been a few Tech Quests that I couldn't figure out so far.

@techteach_csub The most useful resource I've embedded on my website so far is probably my Youtube Playlist of Ed Tech videos/tutorials, I've already referred back to it a few times when completing other quest items. #techquestportfolio4

@techteach_csub The most useful resource that I have embedded into Tech Quest so far has been Google Forms. I believe strongly in assessment to check for understanding before continuing with a lesson and think I will use Google Forms heavily in my classroom. #techquestportfolio4

I have already learned so much about the technology available for classroom use and I am looking forward to learning even more! #techteach
