"50 Top EdTech Tools for the Classroom"

*To access tool reviews go to EdTech Reviews tab located on link.

The information found at this link provides reviews on thousands of educational technology tools from educational stakeholders in a rigorous, unbiased, research-based manner. Reviews found here are more detailed than other app reviews (i.e. Google Play, Apple, etc.) as they do not allow company entities to review. The webinar host shared they are dedicated to "giving educators reviews they can trust from educators themselves". Reviewers use a rubric to score in three categories which are then used to develop a final rating for each tool. Go to website to read editorial reviews and select appropriate tools to enhance your classroom instruction. Important to note, the safety, privacy, security, and compliance are reviewed by a team (including lawyers) and given one of three ratings (red to blue). All tools included on the list (see link) have received a “passing” blue permitting an educator to feel more confident about safely implementing a selected tool in the classroom. Some of my favorites that were discussed, and I am excited to try in my own instruction include:

Adobe Spark

Google CS First

Flores-Creating a Culture of Dignity in Your Community

2020-01-07 18:56:02 UTC

My webinar was about the unwritten social rules of Social Media and how each student is affected. If teachers want to warn against the "dangers" of social media, it cannot be fear-based. Studies have shown that Instagram is the most negative social media app for students in regards to body image, meanwhile Youtube is the most positive. There are many hidden rules about social media that adults should learn about if they want to get to know their students more.

Re-make learning and use variability to sustain educational learning. In this webinar, it discussed and compared ability in averages of various types of brains. As educators we need to design lessons with flexibility and fitting the lessons to fit the individual and to their needs. We as educators are designers and there is a Universal Design for Learning...including these three principles... 1. Representation 2. Action and Expression 3. Engagement

Educators and Social Media: Avoiding the Pitfalls

david_huckle — 2020-01-07 18:58:14 UTC

I feel this video was a bit outdated, if the video was newer it definitely presented some old information and lacked a focus on what social media platforms students are currently using. It focused almost solely on Twitter and how some schools are/were using Twitter. I am very curious who they would have running/regulating a school account and how they dealt with problems that arise. It was not terribly helpful, but I'm sure it would be insightful for some teachers that have never used Twitter. It also has some good info on links to districts that have social media guidelines so you can at least go check out what some of the districts around the country are saying.

I learned that there are a lot of interactive educational games that be used to engage and teach students. In fact, I plan on having my sons play some of them during the remaining days of Winter Break. Here are a few:

The Webinar makes the digital accessible to the students. I learned about the tools for media and technology in my instruction.

Letś Celebrate Digital Citizenship

E-Sports in K-12 (Jessie Lomeli)

2020-03-03 23:23:21 UTC

RIverside and Orange County school districts have 900K students participating in E-Sports. Their main goals are to build student engagement and leadership, as well as get previously disenfranchised students to be accepted and in some cases, celebrated. The mission for E-Sports in K-12 schools is to get students interested in STEM programs and show interest in learning and as a result, be skilled and thrive after high school. Colleges are also dishing out $100 million in scholarships for E-Sports in 2020.

Fun facts: E-Sports is projected to bring in a revenue of over 3 billion dollars by 2022, and has already surpassed Major League Baseball in total viewership. The Japan Olympics will also include an E-Sports showcase and will be a potentially considered a sport in future Olympic games.

Amplifying Student Voice
The meaning of amplifying student voices is to engage students to speak upon their values, opinions, beliefs, and perspectives, but also using techniques based on student choices. It is said that by 2020, students will need to know 4 of the 10 soft skills, including: emotional intelligence, judgement and decision making, complex problem solving, and coordinating with others. The benefits of amplifying student voices are: channeling creativity, developing individual voice, encourages taking risks safely, builds meaningful relationships, and supports student autonomy.

Mandy Pacheco Cultivating Kindness: A Foundation for Digital Citizenship

2020-03-03 23:24:53 UTC

Some school are using Digital Citizenship to promote social and emotional learning. Some districts want to create a change in their school culture and teach their students about kindness. Change begins with administrators and teachers. Teachers must create an environment with kindness so it could be modeled by students. School administrators must also support teachers to promote a school wide change. In order to create a change in school culture we must bring awareness, be persistent, and we must immerse ourselves. The question to is, how do we cultivate kindness using digital citizenship. The students will use digital citizenship lessons and activities. One main concern that these districts want to tackle and educate students is cyber-bullying. By using these platforms the students can learn to build relationships and communicate using kindness. Students can use lessons and activities that will teach them how to properly communicate on social media.
