Great session...

# data[].attributes.body
never heard of checkology. I will check it out! Thanks.

# data[].attributes.body
the mix of old school and tech is a great idea. Introduce the idea that there are more ways to find information than through the internet/computer.

# data[].attributes.body
Although having technology is a great opportunity to learn new things, we still have to make sure we know how to use different resources.

# data[].attributes.body
Norms!!! So important so they know how to use technology safely and correctly.

# data[].attributes.body
Loved the statement about teaching the norms of what is expected and how to surf through the information they may see.

# data[].attributes.body
Vetting sources - very important.

# data[].attributes.body
The biggest issue is how our students have lost the basic skills.  The article mentioned this in paragraph 10.  We have become too dependent on these devices.

# data[].attributes.body
We have to make sure we MODEL for them!

# data[].attributes.body
It sounds like a good starting point is to teach research and discernment.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to teach them how to dig deeper into the snipets of information and how to interact with that information.

# data[].attributes.body
Great article. How do we teach passion for learning to our kids?

# data[].attributes.body
Hearing the participants speak informs me that each of us as educators have very deeply held opinions and beliefs about the use of technology in the classroom. Without a clear and concise School-Wide  or District-wide guidance on the use of technology, we as educators run the risk of creating a confusing and conflicting environment for students.

I have seen students read and learn about chemistry concepts and apply it to their personal interests such as slime making! It is super cool!

# data[].attributes.body
Some kids need absolute silence to work, other need to roam, and others need music. These learning styles do not mesh very well. How do we provide a quality education for these different students?

# data[].attributes.body
Great resource for teachers and students is the News Literacy Project and Checkology. Can be used in the classroom and uses modules to teach students all about valid sources and the dreaded "fake news".

# data[].attributes.body
Loved the statement that students are just using the technology to text but are accessing information to learn!

# data[].attributes.body
How do we create an environment for our students to have an appetite for learning more information than just one-liners and simple/basic information?

# data[].attributes.body
Google is easy to use, but how often is the information wrong.  Students must be taught about credible resources.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to teach/model for our students to truly read and digest information fully, rather than skim the headline and think we know everything about that one topic.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that one thing technology has done has allowed us to learn how to do new things.  It is easy to learn a new skill via Googling it for information and instructions or finding step-by-step on YouTuve.

# data[].attributes.body
Students are more global than they used to be.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers are no longer the gatekeepers of information. The kids have access to the information in so many different ways now. We need to help they comprehend and absorb the information through their particular learning styles and interests using technology. Do you allow your students to listen to music in your classroom for stimulation?

How can technology be used to enhance meaningful dialogue and reflection?

# data[].attributes.body
I can see the importance of having access to devices when it provides access to books that they might not have in their homes. However, I also see the disconnect that will come later as they grow.

# data[].attributes.body
The art of meaningful discourse is lost behind technology. Students have trouble articulating their thoughts because they are so used to talking via chat in soundbites.

# data[].attributes.body
I see both the positive and the negative use of technology in our society. I would agree that it is actually preparing them more for life more than not. As a society, are we more inform about life issues than our previous folks?

# data[].attributes.body
Society is so quick to blame the younger generation for "bad" trends, but we are all reading less. Instead of instilling in our students that they are reading historically less, how can we encourage them to be leaders and innovators for society as a whole with contextualizing and absorbing information with new technology methods.

# data[].attributes.body
How can we use the instant information to collaborate and "dig deeper"?

# data[].attributes.body
It is a good habit to put the technology away for a while.  We need to model how to use reliable sources of information - not just googling everything.  In one day I heard 4 different random folks say - you can just google that information...

# data[].attributes.body
Although we say we need to detach from our devices, this now has to be taught, HOW?

# data[].attributes.body
How can we deepen comprehension and critical thinking in a one-liner world?

# data[].attributes.body
This is a great reflective tool for teachers to use both before and after lesson planning.  What level of implementation do many in the room find themselves?

# data[].attributes.body
Technology is not going away... it is only going to expand. We need to teach responsible uses and model best tech practices.

# data[].attributes.body
Are we using technology in the classroom for good or evil?

# data[].attributes.body
The attentiveness of meaning is lost behind the short burst of emotion that we are bombarded with on technological devices. How can we incorporate meaningful emotion that provoke informed discussion?

# data[].attributes.body
How can we improve on students academic discussion when they do not even know how to communicate with one another socially or professionally?

# data[].attributes.body
How do we get students to connect the dots between endless sources of information to create something usable, organized and meaningful?

# data[].attributes.body
In the high school level, cell phones are the bane of our existence...but if we try to ban them, how do we teach students WHEN they should use technology?

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, (less thoughtful) with students it makes it easier for them to say horrific things hiding behind a device that they would not (in most cases) say to a person to their face.

# data[].attributes.body
How can we shift from technology being detrimental to learning, reading, and deep thinkiing, to something that assists with deeper learning?

# data[].attributes.body
Hi!

# data[].attributes.body
I also see the positives of instant info when we teach our students how to make sure the information is credible and reliable.  Holly Mickler

# data[].attributes.body
Is it better to have more individuals with some information or fewer individuals with vast information?

# data[].attributes.body
With instant information we are now in greater need of media literacy than at any other time in our history. How can we begin to incorporate this into our lessons, and teach our students to become thoughtful consumers of information? Marc Jarke

# data[].attributes.body
"Students aren't the only ones reading less. We all are." We all want information quickly and immediately. How do we go about teaching ourselves and our students that sometimes we have to be patient and read all the way through things in order to understand the information, the news story, etc. ?

# data[].attributes.body
I think the comment about focusing so hard on the standards is a consistent struggle among teachers, and we forget to take the time to teach them these other skills that are necessary for them to have that will then aide them in mastering the standards.
