#tnedchat Anyone using Moodle or Canvas for LMS? If so, how do you like it? If not, what are you using? @mathituplintz @juliedavisEDU @Gregbagby

#tnedchat Thank you Greg Bagby! You did a great job! Thanks to everyone else as well!

#tnedchat A6: Think for yourself. Do your research. Don't be afraid to think differently from those around you. Be your own person. Get out and vote.

#tnedchat @christyallen931 Absolutely!

#tnedchat A5: That's a hard question. It seems this year has been exceptionally challenging in that arena. I remind my students being true to yourself and your beliefs does not mean you have to put someone else down. Try to understand other's perspectives.

#tnedchat A4: Anytime we can provide an opportunity for the Ss to exercise/experience their right to vote is a good thing to me. So many as adult become complacent (maybe not this year) about voting. We should treasure that right, not ignore it. I hope Ss remember that.

#tnedchat A3: My hope is that I encourage them to think for themselves. To scrutinize each candidate and decide on "their candidate" based on content and intention instead of blindly aligning with a political party.

#tnedchat A3: I shy away from sharing my political position not because I am not allowed to, but because I don't think it is the place, or the audience, with which to share my views. I do try to discuss the positive and negative of each side.

#tnedchat Popping in a little late. Nervous about politics being the topic, but ready to wade in.

Here we go!
