We relied on those teachers who had experience and knowledge about the technology.]]> 2022-03-08 22:36:54 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945462 https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945467 Teachers hate Canvas :). Didn't have a lot of help. Teachers hated having multiple platforms to use with students. Many platforms need parents to help students with, and not every student has a parent who can help them. Some teachers had to create their own content (like for Portuguese class, special education).

]]> 2022-03-08 22:36:54 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945467 very little support - Canvas specialists were not trained sufficiently https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945503 2022-03-08 22:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945503 It was terrible.

We did the bare minimum because we had to learn it all. Our stuff was really lame because it was still the learning process. A lot of changes and communication was "nuh-uh". Everyone involved experienced a hot mess because the pandemic is a hot mess. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945621 2022-03-08 22:37:04 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945621 I need support with back ups and time machine and fear of loosing everything. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945947 2022-03-08 22:37:26 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084945947 https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946032 It has been extremely frustrating.  Many mixed messages and limited time to develop at the onset of the pandemic.

]]> 2022-03-08 22:37:32 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946032 I can easily create online learning material for students, the struggle is making it accessible for first graders without putting the responsibility on parents: I don't want mom being forced over them and navigate them through each webpage and username entry https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946098 2022-03-08 22:37:37 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946098 https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946144 A few online courses.

They were supposed to come one day, but never got to our 1st grade team.

I ended up staying up until 3 most evenings so I could be available for my own kids. It's taken me over a year to get over that routine. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946732 2022-03-08 22:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946732 https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084946773 Canvas was not teacher friendly on the elementary level.

I am not sure if I was able to learn as much as I should because of all the other things that we still have to do in school.

We learned from each other more than we learn from blended learning trainings. The blended learning trainings were just way too much to follow. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084947109 2022-03-08 22:38:48 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084947109 I want to go home!!!

Additionally, sending the Chromebooks home is hard because many kids never return them after bringing them home--taking away my ability to use them in class later on https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084947847 2022-03-08 22:39:40 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084947847 https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084947973 Bigger salary -- this is too much work with too little time ;). Platforms need to be simpler, especially for younger students who need to access multiple classes.

They also switched the way Canvas worked for elementary and it wasn't ready at the beginnng of the year and there wasn't much training to re-do all of the stuff that we had slaved over the previous year.  

So incredibly frustrating!]]> 2022-03-08 22:40:00 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084948165 We use canvas very minimally. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084948199 2022-03-08 22:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084948199 I've learned new skills. https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084948275 2022-03-08 22:40:06 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084948275 Preparing stuff online for the students.

Learning all the new programs.

They never get returned. If I don't send the code home, they can't access their computer account.

Many parents do not want a computer sent home with them. They do not have the time to monitor each their children on the school issued devices.

Not enough time to prepare and plan blended lessons.]]> 2022-03-08 22:45:02 UTC https://padlet.com/coxsu1/lakeviewblended/wish/2084952553 Kids need real life experiences.

Many of the students who can't afford to fall any further behind are the ones who did NOT go online even when they were sent home with Chrome books.
