teachthought.com/pedagogy/blogg… #ET662 Love that this article focuses on collaboration!

@eppersELA Neat! We're loving the color combo you used too. Thanks for designing this with us, Cassandra! 💖 ^cg

Using @canva to turn Fullan's Three-Tier Process of Change in to a handy visual model!

I’m okay.

Our gif represents the design principle of #GeniusHour, in which students design their own learning experiences! #ET660 #LoyolaET @LoyolaET @LoyolaEducation @plovesliteracy @swagoner11 @crsmith43 @tracygalloET630

This is me :) #ET660

Excited to start #ET660 and learn about innovative technologies and tools! Hopefully this can help during online learning (and convince me to use Twitter regularly) #LoyolaET @LoyolaET @LoyolaEducation @ireneamelia1

"Sacrifice the Weak" – imagine not just thinking of this but actually writing it out AND taking it out on the street in Nashville, Tennessee.

Just followed three people in the education field, all from Ireland! @MaddenClare, @KMUBarry, and especially excited to have added @dhubhda as I’m really interested in trauma informed practices. #digitaldemocracyorbust

#digitaldemocracyorbust for global connections, I really like “generation global” (for future students, probably not possible for this year’s group). I also really like the “out of Eden” activities but think it would be better suited for beginning of the year in HS.

#Tools4RemoteLearning Thank you so much to our mods & guests! As we wrap up and start archiving this chat (to be posted on 3/27 by 6 PM EST) feel free to add new connections and peruse any of the discussed resources. Take care of yourselves and head to the next chat at #PLNCOMET!

@plovesliteracy A7: I would love some simple tutorials/how-to videos on how to use specific tools. Webinars/virtual meetings are also awesome but I like being able to learn at my own pace. Would also love a list of ELA-specific resources to go through! #ToolsForRemoteLearning

@SWagoner11 A6: Very excited to use Google hangouts with students & try out daily attendance questions from TheTownieTeacher (on Insta). Have also been wanting to re-implement vocab.com, vocabtest.com & esl-bits.net (all free!) #ToolsForRemoteLearning

Q6: What new online resources are you excited to implement over the next few weeks? Beyond? Answer using A6 to #Tools4RemoteLearning

@plovesliteracy A5: It varies. I have students who are in constant communication (asking questions, posting memes, and students I have not heard from at all. I am hoping we see more response after 4/6 when instruction is supposed to officially start back up again. #ToolsForRemoteLearning

@SWagoner11 A4: Our LMS is Schoology which has update and discussion board features, so I have been using both of those to communicate and check in. Have also used Google Docs/Forms in the past so would definitely recommend that as a very easy tool. #ToolsForRemoteLearning

Q4: How have you checked in with students to provide social-emotional support? What resources did you use? Answer using A4 to #Tools4RemoteLearning

My school did this too! They created an instagram account to share teacher and student pictures. #Tools4RemoteLearning

@plovesliteracy A3: I have been using the ScreenTime options on my phone to limit how often I can scroll through social media to make sure I don’t overwhelm myself, and used Google hangouts to check in with coworkers. Keeping a schedule also definitely helps! #ToolsForRemoteLearning
