If students are sitting at home at a computer during virtual learning, why is there homework? Same spot, same device, and more work after sitting for 7 hours? Something may have to change. – at Erie, PA

Did you know that gaming systems like Wii U, PS4 and XBox One have apps for #RemoteLearning tools like #GoogleClassroom, @GoFormative and others? #RemoteTeaching xitter.cf/feldmantech/status/123…
#EduDuctTape #myohioclassroom I haven’t tried it personally but people I know said they verified.

✂️ Long videos can be an information overload. Shorter clips with time to think, discuss, and apply can help learners better understand the content. You can chunk a video using Google Slides. #HyperDocs #ShiftinEdu

I am viewing a PDF from an email and Drive asks me at the top "Open with Google Docs" where it converts it to editable text. Awesome. https://xitter.cf/t.co/BnqWwl4sSR #googleEDU

Hey Twitter! Need a favor. I’m a SS teacher & #edtech addict w/ 12 years experience and I’m in need of a position for next school year. If you know of any openings in eastern PA or NW NJ, please let me know. Here are my portfolios bit.ly/markalwill markalwill.com

I know, HyperDocs look like just a doc w links, but that's looking at the tool. It's really about the lesson you designed. If I make a great lesson for my Ss and print it, I'm not focused on the paper. Lesson design is not new, but 8yrs ago I hadn't seen it integrated well w tech

I always steer clear of three kinds of teachers: 1) those who always talk bad about their students 2) those who always talk bad about colleagues or admin and 3) those who always talk bad about the school. Attitudes are contagious and I don’t want to catch what they’ve got.

Helping students separate fact from fiction is no longer a matter of pointing them toward credible news sources bit.ly/2J1qb3R #digcit #medialiteracy #DigCitCommit

I thought this interesting for #learning & #training design because this applies to all, we play as people so don't get hung on #gamers. Think problem solving (#leadership) and more than #elearning consider all delivery modes. #neuroscience #designmatters ow.ly/ci1X30l3VdR

Students don't watch your long screencasts? Why not create an #EduGIF instead? One way to do so is in @Screencastify Premium. @gsuite @googlechrome #Chromebooks #Chromebook #GAFE4Littles #TLAP #TOSAChat jakemiller.net/gif-creation-…

Tons of great ideas for using emojis in the classroom! 💡💡💡💡 xitter.cf/tonyvincent/status/102…
🚀 Emojis are pictures you can type, and that means they can be used just about anywhere for communication, creativity, and productivity. See how in this post... #ncsst4t tonyv.me/emoji

Terrific article on setting performance expectations. "In a trusting culture, employees are willing to take risk with stretched goals. Such culture, too, foster creativity and innovations." #HPISummer2018 xitter.cf/Mag_HR/status/10133163…

Chunk content, employ the 4C’s, and keep videos and/or direct instruction to 11 minutes or less. xitter.cf/steministdee/status/10… – at Lawrence, NJ
For all my middle school educators: Keep the biology of our students in mind when designing lessons. #keepitreal #kidsdeaerveit
