Hey PLN! Three global connections I would recommend are @Malala @jacindaardern and @JackMa

@candersdavis agreed! There are so many positive social media accounts that the kids can follow. #edtechfootprint

A3: I think showing studnets examples of artists and makers social media is a great way to show how the internet can be a positive space. #EdTechFootprint

I think having students google their heroes would show them how positive a digital footprint can be. Instead of a digital footprint being scary, we can teach students that it can be very positive. #EdTechFootprint

Q2- in middle school, a lot of digital footprint learning has to do with social media and cyberbullying. #EdTechFootprint

A1- I inform my students of their digital footprint through lessons that we teach as a school. We had a school wide lesson a few weeks ago about digital footprint and how what the students post can last forever. #EdTechFootprint

Hey all! I am Conner, a 6th grade Geography and World Cultures teacher. I am tired. #EdTechFootprint

5 Minutes until we begin our #EdTechFootprint chat. We are excited to share this space with you discussing digital footprint.

Come to our twitter chat! 7 pm. #edtechfootprint

@AEDUTECH22 Yes! Usually when the students are stressed, they let it be known in some manner. I handle stress by staying active. I love to run and skateboard. I also see a therapist, where school comes up often. #inhaleexhaleeducators

Q3: Do you notice an increase in your stress levels when your students are facing their own challenges and hardships? How do you tackle this stress? #inhaleexhaleEducators #teacherwellness #wellness #selfcare

@richardsteacher @csquared64 @Karonluvcreator @MusicalNanci All of the topics sound super interesting!

Hey PLN..... the one on memes may be interesting.... thinking of digital citizenship in the classroom.... kiddos love the memes! #stayconnected #edtech @csquared64 @Karonluvcreator @mrmac841 @MusicalNanci

@AEDUTECH22 A1- I always eat lunch alone. I love it. It is the only time of the day I get to myself. I always make sure I pack a lunch I will enjoy. While I eat, I don't think about school work unless I have to. I watch something relaxing on youtube.

Q1: What are some self-care practices you are able to participate in throughout your school day? #inhaleexhaleEducators #teacherwellness #wellness #selfcare

@AEDUTECH22 A4- Absolutely. We are caretakers before educators. Our primary role isn't the education of children, but to make sure that the children are safe.

Q4: As an Educator, do you feel you've taken on more responsibility than just teaching? #inhaleexhaleEducators #teacherwellness #wellness #selfcare #mentalhealth

The Monster Project also sounds really fun! smithclass.org/proj/Monsters/

PLN #stayconnected team, I am a world cultures teacher, so the first kind of global project that came to mind was to connect students with other cultures all around the world! A pen pal style project would be great to create a cultural exchange

@richardsteacher @MusicalNanci @Karonluvcreator @csquared64 A FB PLN that was helpful this past year was HoCo Parents for Educators. This was a group that looked out for teachers during the pandemic.

@richardsteacher @csquared64 @MusicalNanci @Karonluvcreator Also, our school is now 1 to 1 because of the pandemic. Students used to use laptop cart computers, and now they are using their own. This has changed the focus of digital citizenship because now students have this incredibly powerful tool 24/7.

So what does Digital Citizenship look like in your classroom? #stayconnected @mrmac841 @csquared64 @MusicalNanci @Karonluvcreator

@richardsteacher @csquared64 @MusicalNanci @Karonluvcreator Being a social studies teacher, digital citizenship in my classroom looks like research. One of the most important parts of my job is to help students gain the skills needed to weed out fake news. #stayconnected
