flipgrid.com/s/nJsCGyu6zi1T… Here is my Digital Innovative Pilot Project for my ET 660 course. Please use it to see how you can implement the tech tool Nearpod in your classroom!

I'm starting my ET660- Innovative Digital Schools class and I am excited to analyze and explore new digital technologies! This will be especially helpful in the upcoming semester of virtual teaching #ET660 #LoyolaET @LoyolaET @ireneamelia1 @LoyolaEducation

#digitaldemocracyorbust @GEMReport has lots of data on progress towards UN global education targets, secondnatureteaching on Instagram is from Australia and has lots of tips and resources, and theelsgirl from insta is based in Uganda with great ESL resources!

Another project is from iEarn. The "My School, Your School" project has students collaborative with global peers to describe their school day and routines. Students are able to compare and contrast their different routines! #digitaldemocracyorbust

One project I found was a virtual field trip on Skype! Students could explore the Ancient China in Shan Xi Museum and have an opportunity to understand the achievements of Chinese civilization. There's even a Flipgrid follow up assignment! #digitaldemocracyorbust

Thanks girl! #digitaldemocracyorbust

Was so great collaborating with everyone! Thanks for your input! #Tools4RemoteLearning

@Mr_McMullen_CHC Already reflecting and adapting thats awesome! #Tools4RemoteLearning

A7: I have been in communication with my teaching teams using Microsoft Teams and sharing successes and failures with resources. So far it has been successful. #Tools4RemoteLearning

@Music_MsCarter @plovesliteracy I agree! #Tools4RemoteLearning

@plovesliteracy A7: I think that some examples from my county as to what or how exactly they want us to teach our curriculum would help. Since my county is just now making the transition, this is something that they could be in the process of doing for us. #Tools4RemoteLearning

@plovesliteracy A7: My county hasn't mentioned any PD for using the new online platform but I am hoping we get some so I can feel more confident going into remote teaching #Tools4RemoteLearning

@HappyTeacherHTR @SWagoner11 This is awesome! Thank you!! #Tools4RemoteLearning

@SWagoner11 A6: Implementing SEL supports for myself and fellow educators through our new Ed Tech platform! #Tools4RemoteLearning happyteachercertified.com/starterpack

@MsHricko @SWagoner11 Me too!! #Tools4RemoteLearning

@SWagoner11 A6: I would love to incorporate some type of video into instruction so that students can see my face and I can see them again as well #Tools4RemoteLearning

A6: I haven't tried this but excited too! youtube.com/user/CosmicKid… #Tools4RemoteLearning
