C4S8 Equipping Educators Course Musings by NHDOE Grant https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh After reading the "What to Expect in this Course" document and the foundational readings and exercises in this module, answer the following prompts in this Padlet: How do you predict this course might be valuable to you? What are your intentions/goals for your learning in this course? en-us 2021-07-18 21:27:45 UTC 2024-07-15 00:42:08 UTC hello@padlet.com jlynch105 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1654972475 I feel this course will be valuable to learn and collaborate with others about the best practices. I find we all stay in our bubble and only know what we know. When collaborating with others outside of our own school/district I learn so much more. The possibilities are endless...

My intentions/goals for learning in this course is to learn how to support teachers when they have questions about best practices, supporting student successes, as well as tools/tips to give during observations. ]]> 2021-07-19 17:34:56 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1654972475 This course will be valuable to me by helping me find more student centered lessons. jpare8 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1656043464 I hope to learn how to make my Canvas classes more student centered.  We had a few PD days in September to learn and set up our Canvas pages for the first time.  Luckily, a few teachers had used it before, so they worked with small groups of teachers and shared a ton of their stuff.  There is so much that can be done with Canvas, but we didn't have time to learn even half of it. ]]> 2021-07-20 15:03:44 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1656043464 Prediction & Goal kgullage1 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1656079894 I predict that we will share ideas about what did and did not with remote learning from various people at different grade levels and positions in education, which will help us to identify strategies that we can try with our own students.

My goal for my learning in this course is to learn more about using technology as a tool to enhance learning in the classroom, as I would like to take steps toward becoming a flipped classroom.

I predict that this will happen, if I invest the time and engage with everyone's ideas!]]> 2021-07-20 16:11:25 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1656099809 I predict that I will learn more about technology that I can use to help my students learn. https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657230926 I am looking forward to the projects toward the end of the course.]]> 2021-07-21 15:24:50 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657230926 Predictions and Intentions khills7 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657335750 I predict that this course will provide me with remote learning strategies and best practices that I can use not only in my own remote teaching, but also as I support teachers in my district in my role as Director of Curriculum and Instruction.

I would like to way away with some practical strategies or resources that I can put into practice, and to engage with others in this class to brainstorm solutions to common challenges.]]> 2021-07-21 17:32:05 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657335750 Kim Roux https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657341553 I predict that I will learn from other teachers what worked and what didn't work in their remote learning period, and it will help me learn some new teaching strategies that I can use in my classroom in the future.
I always love to brainstorm with other teachers because I think we can learn so much from one another. I am hoping to gain some new strategies for effective teaching, and also some advice on how to solve some common problems that occur in all of our classrooms throughout the year. ]]> 2021-07-21 17:39:45 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1657341553 Jill Galus -Predictions and Intentions https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1658236950 I predict that I will gain insights into using different technological strategies in my teaching practice because I am able to work with others who have had different struggles and successes in their own practices.

My intention is to learn how to use various applications to modify my lessons and classroom culture so that students have the opportunity to learn in a style that meets their needs and my goals. ]]> 2021-07-22 11:50:53 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1658236950 Collin Currier - Predictions and Expectations cocurrier https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1658610249 I predict that I will learn new ways to engage my students using technology. This class will help me learn about different platforms for engaging students in meaningful ways. I also hope to find ways to use technology to structure my class. 

My intention is to learn best practices on integrating technology into the class. I also plan to include more online platforms such as padlet or jamboards into my class.]]> 2021-07-22 19:51:59 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1658610249 Mitchell Bull - Predictions and Intentions https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659456124 I predict that this course will be valuable to me because I don't think that virtual learning is going anywhere. After seeing many students thrive with it, and knowing that we live in an increasingly technology-based world, I think that having the skills to run an effective online classroom will be tantamount to running an in-person classroom in the future.

My intention for learning in this course is to learn to be more comfortable making and running plans for an online environment - I find that I am very comfortable in the classroom, but not always when I'm talking to a screen. Furthermore, my goal is to enhance my language skills when talking about planning and structuring lessons in general - not just for the online world.]]> 2021-07-23 14:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659456124 Elizabeth Montminy - Predictions and Goals elizabethmontminy https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659749397
My prediction is that it will be fun to get to know and collaborate with the other educators in this course. I felt remote teaching to be very lonely and isolating. I am excited to discuss this experience with others and talk about ways forward. 

With that in mind, my intention is to find out new strategies and tools to help me be a better teacher - be it in person or in a remote classroom. As others have mentioned on this Padlet, I am excited to brainstorm solutions for some of the issues and challenges that were identified in our introductions. ]]> 2021-07-24 01:48:02 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659749397 Elizabeth Dumais - Predictions and Goals elizabethdumais https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659751890 I predict that this course will be valuable to me as we transition back to a more normal semblance of school. More than anything, I believe this course is an opportunity to focus on the positive aspects of remote learning after a very difficult 16 months. Focusing on the positives will help better inform my instruction for the coming school year and beyond as I seek to integrate some of the technology, tools, and assessments that remote learning mandated. 

With that said, my intention for the course is to remain positive, something that was incredibly difficult in our building with so many changes, and carry this positivity into the upcoming year even though our specific school and district still has many unknowns and challenges ahead. I am excited to collaborate with other educators from across the state regarding best practices, educational technology, and Canvas. ]]> 2021-07-24 01:55:37 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659751890 Predictions and Goals kevin_lavigne https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1659958084 I predict that this course will encourage me to reflect upon the experiences of the last year both , individually and collaboratively, ...which is something that I just don't make time for as a new school year is about the be launched.

My intention for this course is to refine the "community of learners" techniques I explored/developed during the remote learning. These strategies will empower all of my students to be better problem solvers as well as supporting each other whether they are interesting in pursuing science or not.

I was primarily in the classroom during this year but the need for switching to remote learning is still a possibility for the foreseeable future. My goal is to gain more knowledge and experience in having a strong and successful on-line learning environment when needed.]]> 2021-07-24 19:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660055874 Meta Scott: Prediction and Goals https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660330375 I look forward to this course being beneficial to my future teaching as I learn about integrating technology into my teaching practice. I predict this course might be valuable to me in the following ways: I will be introduced to new digital tools and have an opportunity to use them, reflecting with colleagues on how to meaningfully incorporate them into lesson planning/teaching-learning environments.  I will learn about "elements of effective online pedagogy," and have an opportunity to evaluate how I have incorporated them into a teaching/learning experience I design. 

My intention on enrolling in this course was to learn about how to teach virtually. Since I didn't teach this past year, I feel especially behind. Through taking this course my goal is to have a framework from which to integrate technology/digital teaching-learning into my future practice by learning about what to consider when creating an online classroom and effective ways to include the variety of tools available.
]]> 2021-07-25 15:11:26 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660330375 My intention for this class is to gain as much knowledge from others as I can to be able to go forward with remote learning as part of the classroom. sstrout2 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660384347 I predict I will learn some great strategies and ideas to integrate technology into the classroom.]]> 2021-07-25 18:13:07 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660384347 lauriebailey2 https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1660439416 I predict that I will learn more about technology that I can use to help my students learn more effectively.

Although we will be back in class full time in the fall, there is the possibility that remote learning may occur. I would like to add to my toolbox if that occurs, but even if it doesn't I want to have more tools to engage my students.

I believe it will also allow me to listen to other teachers experiences to give me new ideas and new variation(s) on teaching remotely as well as ideas on how to transition my teaching into a more "hybrid" teaching model.
My intention for this course is to gain deeper knowledge from the course materials, topics, and other classmates about strategies and techniques for teaching virtually.

I hope to learn novel strategies and ideas on how to manage and run remote classes. After the past two years, with so many educators learning how to manage this, there are numerous great ideas out there, and I am excited to share and learn from my peers.

I also hope to learn from others' experiences how I may better anticipate challenges arising from teaching remotely. 

I intend to use this course as a launch pad for trying a variety of resources and for helping myself analyze some of my teaching strategies. I am currently homeschooling my two children but anticipate that much of what we discuss in the course will continue to be applicable if I return to a classroom setting.]]> 2021-07-28 23:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1663486469 Laurie Brody https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1665641407 I predict this course to be valuable to me in that I will be able to reflect on my teaching during the last year plus, gain some insights into what went well and what I should work on, and reinforce good teaching practice for remote learning environments.

My goal for my learning in this course is to learn best practices for online teaching and through collaboration with others o the course, gain new insights into online teaching. Even after teaching online for a year, I still feel a bit uncomfortable planning for & delivering my online lessons. Some went really well, others did not and through reflection and refinement I hope to make improvements to them.]]> 2021-07-31 19:06:06 UTC https://padlet.com/grant129/h4vrn4f0q2dgigyh/wish/1665641407
