#TETC was so amazing. So many good conversations with like-minded educators. I am so grateful to have received the Joan Gray Instructional Leadership Award.

Think-Pair-Share has been a classroom mainstay since the 1980s. It helps increase participation, reinforce key concepts, and aid in recall, professor of English education @toddfinley.bsky.social writes.

But even the strongest learning strategies can get boring if theyโ€™re overused.

Wearing the โ€˜Student Hatโ€™ Working to understand the studentsโ€™ experience of the class gives teachers a way to see where they can make improvements.

Over the past few years, Iโ€™ve become more and more passionate about considering the student experience, especially with #edtech. Check out my article about how Wearing the โ€˜Student Hatโ€™ can impact the classroom.

Itโ€™s easy to become overwhelmed w all the options. But continue to encourage all the creative options that iPads provide. Mark up on photos or screenshots, Pages, Keynote are all great tools. The Everyone Can Create r great resources from Apple too.

I would create a collection of short student tutorials to walk Ss through assignment submissions & completion. We r Microsoft too so OneNote is our preferred app for annotations. Pick 1-2 apps and have Ts practice being the โ€œstudentโ€ so they r familiar w the student iPad experience.

At the beginning of the year we do a set-up session with all new staff and then follow up with individual coaching to get basics in place. Settings, Apple Classroom, digital whiteboards, screen mirroring etc. Is this move for teachers & students? Our Ts have a MacBook & iPad but Ss only iPad.
