EdTech Thought (4:47) You're Doing Enough
Have you ever felt inferior? Have you felt like you're just not doing enough and you could be doing so much more? Of course, you have, you're an educator.
Some people make a living telling us we're not doing enough. I also previously stated on the show that you and I work in a profession where you're hired based on your potential but evaluated on your shortcomings and faults. This shouldn't be the case but that's an EdTech Thought for another day.
You and I are doing all we can at any given moment. Do we have the desire to do more and be more in our role? Sure! There are times when I want to do more but I can't. I would love to podcast more, create tutorials on a regular basis, live stream more, and be an even more recognized and influential figure in the world of education.
I would love to do more at my high school, teach more classes at Rutgers, coach more games for my kids, and have more date nights with my wife.
When I reflect I do have it pretty good. Balance in my life does exist.
I am doing enough.
EdTech Recommendation (7:01) Twitter Spaces - Think Clubhouse but for Twitter. I've not so secretly been looking for Twitter chats to evolve since I fell in love with podcasting and audio.
I think that hosting a space alongside a Twitter chat should be what more people are doing because I know first-hand how engaging audio can be.
How about a bonus edtech rec? Spaces aren't the only way to share and use audio on Twitter. Did you know you can share audio in a tweet from directly in the app? Go to compose a new tweet and to the left of the camera button, you can see a button with vertical purple lines. Tap that button and you will be able to record audio that will be attached to your tweet which can also contain your standard 280 characters.
Featured Content (14:19) How to Start a Podcast Club or Network At Your School
Considerations:
Location Hardware Software What to podcast/broadcast about? How do you connect podcasting to other areas of your school? In January 2022 I launched the Zebra Podcast Network at my school. We live stream the 'Zebra Morning Show' each school day from 7:15-7:30 AM and we stream 'Zebra Drivetime' Tuesdays from 2:45-3:30 PM.

Walk your students through the corridors and history of the White House. Technology allows you to remove the physical barriers of the classroom, offering your students a way to connect the curriculum with the real world. Prepare students for the workforce: To thrive in the 21st-century workplace, people need to have more than just a working knowledge of certain technological tools (electronic calendars, web pages, teleconferencing, electronic whiteboards, etc.). By integrating these technologies into the regular curriculum, institutions are ensuring that their students are prepared for the modern workplace. Encourages collaboration: Many educational tools offer a variety of functionalities that promote collaboration. For example, virtual meeting tools provide a way for students to hold meetings with classmates and anyone from anywhere in the world. The Google Suite has been promoting sharing and collaboration since its inception and students can easily share and edit projects with each other. Supports different types of learners: No two students learn the exact same way, but with technology, we can address diversity in learning styles. An effective blending of tools and differentiation can create a great learning environment where our students can and will learn. Access information more easily: Technology makes it easier for students to find information quickly and accurately. Search engines and e-books are replacing traditional textbooks. Instead of personal tutors, students can get one-on-one help through educational videos – anytime and anywhere – learning is available. Teaches students how to be responsible online: With social media sites o-plenty, most students are already digital citizens to some degree - especially after the last couple of years. Going forward, by incorporating technology into the classroom, students will continue to learn how to be responsible in the digital world. Your class and our schools have become a microcosm of the broader digital landscape where students can practice how to communicate, search, and engage with other digital citizens. Adds a fun factor to learning: Outside the classroom, students use technology in all aspects of their lives. Within the classroom, technology can make learning more fun and exciting. Tech-infused game-based learning allows you to deliver lessons via interactive games. Who doesn’t enjoy playing games? Offers A Wider Choice Of Materials That Can Be Accessed Easily: There is an endless amount of educational technology that is available to offer your students to meet their learning needs. EdTech helps them develop the right kind of skills and knowledge so that they can become good professionals in their chosen field. Learners who are able to communicate better through technological means will also perform better academically as well as in work settings because communication skills are very important when you want to get your point across effectively. The internet has become such an integral part of our lives that we hardly find people who do not use it on a daily basis. In today's world, it is essential for students to be able to access the internet from anywhere at any time so that they can do their assignments and research without having to travel all over a place or wait for a particular time when they can do so.

What is the problem with technology in education?
Is technology in schools good or bad?
What are the shortcomings of technology in early childhood education?
You and I think differently about these questions and others I pose in the episode. Thank goodness!
However, the problem is that these questions the reasons I share do exist in the world and some decision-makers and educators believe this.
We have to work hard to show the value of what works in our classrooms and schools.

Customer Reviews

So helpful in this time of Online Learning!

Chris does a great job of helping educators feel calm and confident about educational technology and in this time of distance learning, this is so beneficial!

Fantastic!

As a Student teacher who has been displaced due to the current events of COVID-19. Our hours are being made up by doing other activities, one being listening to podcasts. I have found this podcast to be beyond helpful and fun to listen to. I have listened to about 15 podcasts now, and I can not recommend this podcast enough for new educators!!
I have recommended this podcast to all of my fellow displaced teachers and they have all loved it just as much as I have!

Inspiring and Motivating

I listen to these podcasts on my 35 minute drive to work and during my morning/evening walks. I have discovered so many resources in a short period of time. Jennifer addresses everything from social issues to technology in the classroom, and so much more. I feel extremely fortunate to have found this wealth of information for educators. What Jennifer shares on her website and on her podcasts are relevant to all those working in the educational field. I urge anyone who is looking for guidance in the teaching field to at least listen to one of these podcasts! Be careful though: It's addicting...:)...

First year teacher

I was first exposed to Cult of Pedagogy during grad school; a professor of mine shared with us a blog titled I think, "Find your Marigold". I was very impacted by the blog that I started referencing the website when I needed support to find more valuable information. Now that it will be my first year teaching, I have been listening to the podcast and the wisdom and knowledge that I have been receiving, is making a huge impact on me. There was only so much my teaching program and student teaching were able to provide for me and now it is up to me to go out a find the resources to depend my learning and fill in a lot of those areas that I still do not feel prepared for as a first year teacher. I will reccommend this podcast and blog to anyone I know going into teaching.

unconditional positive regard is NOT new

I struggle to take this seriously when the podcaster has no hisotrical overview of a conept that has been discussed since the 1950s when Carl Rogers wrote about it. One can change how one views disruptive behavior, if one is so fixated on bad behavior that a new 'lens' throgh which to view things is necessary. But, this does not change the behavior and the effects its has on reducing instrucional time and related, empirical affects pertaining to classroom dynamics.

Heading to Ecuador. I'll be gone for four to six weeks. I'm only taking a carry-on backpack .

This will be a multi-part trip. My friend Heidi and I will be spending a week on a small cruise ship in the Galapagos, taking day hikes and snorkeling around the islands. A second week will be spent at a lodge in the Amazonian rainforest. Heidi will then fly home and I will head to the colonial city of Cuenca to spend a couple weeks in a hostel - and chill. I've read about a mini-Inca Trail hike near there as well as a long downhill bike ride. I'll look into those. If I am not too homesick, I may stay in Cuenca for another couple weeks or explore more of Ecuador.

GIven the variety of activities, temperatures, and such, I need to be smart about what I bring. While not the king of minimalism, I can go fairly light...

Simple clothes for 7 days. I figure I can always get laundry done once a week. I only take hiking pants/shirts, underwear and socks. Swimsuit and one t-shirt. Packing cubes help organize and compress my clothes. No dress clothes. I wear one rain jacket/windbreaker and sweatshirt on the plane with light gloves and a stocking hat in the pockets. I pack a broad-brimmed hiking hat.

One pair of hiking shoes and a pair of Crocs to wear in my accommodations and if needed on wet shore landings.

New razor and toothbrush. My old toiletry bag also includes a washcloth, fingernail clippers, a few over-the-counter meds, small bars of soap, etc. Never hard to find a tube of toothpaste on the road if needed.

Laptop/Kindle/iPhone. I have a very small, old Chromebook that is my travel companion. I have an old Kindle that still has good battery life. And I have an old iPhone into which I can have a local SIM card installed for internet access. Chargers, of course.

Paper copies of passport and vax card. I also have scans of these stored in GoogleDocs and on my phone.

Eye mask, ear plugs and neck pillow for my flights. Umbrella. Highly compressible pack for day trips.

I hope to leave behind cold weather, bad habits, and routine. They probably wouldn't fit in my backpack anyway.

* My friend and I pass the required COVID test yesterday! Off we go...
