Gabsee is an app that you use to create your 3D Avatar. It only has one body type. I was okay with that, ready to virtually shed a few pounds. You get to select facial features, hairstyles and color, etc.. and your clothing. You then place and size your avatar live at your current location. There is the option to put a short audio with your avatar which I think is the best part. You can see mine in action on the Design Your Slide Challenge, currently slide 10 (that could change). Have fun!

This is a tool that allows students to engage with your traditional Google Slide presentation on any device, answer your interactive questions, and learn from their peers. Teachers take their classic presentation and drop it their session by opening a  new slide deck. Then you become creative. Here is a review from Ed Surge.

Twitter has been the game changer for me this last year. I love following the different education chats. Our district also uses www.Schoology.com to connect and collaborate.

This seems to be the newest rage in video sharing and learning. It is free for one grid, so the trick is to have lots of topics. As far as I know you can have as many topics as you want. :)

My first experience when I started to truly begin building my PLN was a face to face experience at EdCamp Awesome with my eduhero Jaime Donally! Through face to face experiences and opportunities to connect and collaborate with others I find that the relationships and conversations had are most powerful.
Taking a risk to share learning experiences face to face is a step out of our comfort zones but can be so motivating to know that you are sharing and empowering others to follow you in trying new things.
To me the most powerful think about these face to face events is the relationship factor and the connections that we are able to make with one another. When you "see" these face to face folks on social media afterwards, you almost feel as though you know those folks and it's so cool!

I love hosting Twitter chats, voxer groups, run virtual events to collaborate on edtech topics I'm passionate about. #ARVRinEDU :D

Voxer is another great way to chat and learn from one another. Through this walkie talkie like social media tool, educators are able to stay connected with others in their own time. Voxer allows for voice, text and video messages to be shared amongst groups or one to one conversations.
One great event that takes place twice a year on Voxer is @edcampvoice  https://twitter.com/EdCampVoice
It's basically an "EdCamp" with various topics being shared through different voxer groups that are established by the organizing team. The most beneficial part of this event to me is that these voxer groups do not necessarily end when the event itself ends, but can continue throughout the year as my favorite Voxer group did last year on Growth Mindset! #growthmindsetedu

I have taken a number of Coursera MOOC's and learned a lot! It wasn't that I directly connected with others in a conversation, it was that I learned more about cultures, models of instruction and content. it is great that I did not have to get punished by losing money or having a bad grade for not finishing all course content, but I learned a lot!

Welcome to the Global Oneness Project. We believe that stories play a powerful role in education. Founded in 2006, as an initiative of Kalliopeia Foundation, we are committed to the exploration of cultural, environmental, and social issues. We house a rich library of free multimedia stories comprised of our award-winning films, photo essays, and articles, accompanied by companion curriculum for teachers.

Our curriculum, available in both English and Spanish, is aligned to National and Common Core Standards and contains an interdisciplinary approach to learning. We aim to connect, through stories, the local human experience to global meta-level issues, such as climate change, water scarcity, food insecurity, poverty, endangered cultures, migration, and sustainability. Through featuring individuals and communities impacted by these issues, our stories and lessons provide opportunities to examine universal themes that emphasize our common humanity-identity, diversity, hope, resilience, imagination, adversity, empathy, love, and responsibility. Our lessons facilitate the development of students' critical thinking, inquiry, empathy, and listening skills.

Each week, we release a new lesson plan. All of our content and resources are available for free with no ads or subscriptions.

The Global Oneness Project's films and lessons have been featured on National Geographic, PBS, The Atlantic, The New York Times, The New Yorker, TED Ed, and the Smithsonian, among others. Our educational resources are being used in diverse settings, from public to independent schools, nationally and globally.
