gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:14 PM EST

@deepexperience1 @Mat6453 @mcoutts81 Important that they see other models working. #ADEchat

Innovation goes beyond the superficial aspects of it. Meet students where they are and teach them to think. Also, learn with them. #adechat

@gavinsmart especially trust is so important.. #ADEchat

lancslassrach Mar 8 @ 3:15 PM EST

A1 An innovative school takes the brakes off , allows experimentation & failure in all aspects of teaching not just tech #ADEchat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:15 PM EST

@gavinsmart @ThatEdTechGuy likewise, Uni very open to what is coming next in education and chance to try out new things. #ADEchat

@Mat6453 @gavinsmart @ThatEdTechGuy trying out new stuff or being allowed to is so important #ADEchat

ThatEdTechGuy Mar 8 @ 3:17 PM EST

@gavinsmart @Mat6453 definitely. Having support from them, especially with an initiative like this is essential. #ADEChat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:17 PM EST

@gavinsmart @ThatEdTechGuy I may have to 'borrow' that one Gav #ADEchat

mcoutts81 Mar 8 @ 3:17 PM EST

catherinem23 Mar 8 @ 3:18 PM EST

@Mat6453 @MsLuss @mcoutts81 @gavinsmart we can show them best practise act professionally and diligently and they will become open. #adechat

mcoutts81 Mar 8 @ 3:18 PM EST

@Mat6453 @gavinsmart @ThatEdTechGuy #adechat absolutely. The application of these areas is important but not simply answering 20 similar q’s

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:18 PM EST

@jmarrowshcom possibly not but we have a new agenda in Wales and opportunity exists to drive it #ADEchat

deepexperience1 Mar 8 @ 3:18 PM EST

@ICTEvangelist Great…..#ADEchat https://t.co/xu9OlKHmPS

ThatEdTechGuy Mar 8 @ 3:18 PM EST

HeadDownEyesUp Mar 8 @ 3:19 PM EST

@Mat6453 @mcoutts81 @gavinsmart #ADEChat They need courage to feel free to innovate rather than fear of failure.

nielswijnhoud Mar 8 @ 3:19 PM EST

A2. Completely rethink what the purpose of textbooks is/was. Look at what you want to achieve and find what you need to do so. #ADEchat

syded06 Mar 8 @ 3:19 PM EST

A2 @gavinsmart content/knowledge is still very important regardless of the medium through which it is conveyed #ADEchat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:19 PM EST

@ThatEdTechGuy @gavinsmart new horizons, practice what you preach. My lectures have tech embedded, where it benefits learning #ADEchat

deepexperience1 Mar 8 @ 3:20 PM EST

A2 A greater degree of personalisation for learners #ADEchat

vickiebacondpc Mar 8 @ 3:21 PM EST

Inspiring students means achievable and believable challenges #ADEchat

Q2. How do we redefine a school with no textbooks? https://t.co/xfCV89IMKQ

njw499 Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

A2 - got to be continually adapted for the needs of the learners #adechat

gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

@lancslassrach Thanks Rachel don’t forget the hashtag! #ADEchat

tompet71 Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

a2 @gavinsmart Why would you want a school with no textbooks? #adechat

MsLuss Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

A2. Schools need to give teachers time and space to develop or update a curriculum. #adechat Just removing the books is not enough.

mcoutts81 Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

A2 #adechat by asking if a textbook is the most engaging way to deliver content

deepexperience1 Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

A1 +A2 A school without traditional textbooks is probably going toe more innovative anyway #ADEchat

gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:22 PM EST

@tompet71 Cost? #ADEchat

jmarrowshcom Mar 8 @ 3:23 PM EST

A2 guide students to current, up to date sources of info to create their own 'textbooks' #adechat

BronwynWrites Mar 8 @ 3:23 PM EST

A2: Go beyond the text. Maximize opportunities for visual literacy too. Make it personal, engaging and authentic. #adechat

ThatEdTechGuy Mar 8 @ 3:23 PM EST

@Mat6453 @jmarrowshcom it seems that in some cases, it's done whilst on placement rather than at uni. #ADEChat

@tompet71 @gavinsmart ability to make the learning more contextualised and up to date #ADEchat

lancslassrach Mar 8 @ 3:23 PM EST

A2 why do you need a text book per se? #ADEchat

gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:23 PM EST

@lancslassrach Very good point what could we replace the textbook with? #adechat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:24 PM EST

@ThatEdTechGuy @jmarrowshcom guess it depends on the 'expertise' in the uni #ADEchat

ICTEvangelist Mar 8 @ 3:24 PM EST

@MsLuss by building on strong foundations. Without those #edtech won't impact or enhance #ADEchat

depipads Mar 8 @ 3:25 PM EST

A2 No textbooks in my school! So forward thinking, or is it that they just don't suit our learners ?! #ADEchat

ThatEdTechGuy Mar 8 @ 3:25 PM EST

@Mat6453 @jmarrowshcom or the "expertise" at the school. Some might get a great experience, whilst others may gain little. #ADEChat

mcoutts81 Mar 8 @ 3:25 PM EST

@MsLuss @tompet71 @gavinsmart @deepexperience1 great point. Too many teachers staying in the safe environment of the textbook. #ADEChat

gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:25 PM EST

@depipads I haven’t used a text book in lessons for a long time. iTunes U and access to 'home made’ resources. #ADEchat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:25 PM EST

@ThatEdTechGuy @jmarrowshcom yeah, we have an opportunity to allow everyone to have access and train the schools too where needed. #ADEchat

@tompet71 @gavinsmart Get rid of textbook slave teachers? #ADEchat

HeadDownEyesUp Mar 8 @ 3:26 PM EST

A2 It's the opportunities it gives for ownership of learning that is powerful. Text books can also make a contribution to this. #ADEChat

@MsLuss @tompet71 @gavinsmart Wow. Would love to see that happening. But I'm afraid it won't happen... #ADEchat

MsLuss Mar 8 @ 3:26 PM EST

@mcoutts81 @tompet71 @gavinsmart @deepexperience1 I do wonder if all teachers can teach without. We all have our own strengths #ADEchat

depipads Mar 8 @ 3:26 PM EST

@gavinsmart homemade is the best!! #ADEchat Science textbooks can be so dry!

LanttoSari Mar 8 @ 3:26 PM EST

A2 is a textbook written by other teachers better source of knowledge than an iTunesU course created and constantly updated by you?#ADEchat

Mat6453 Mar 8 @ 3:26 PM EST

@gavinsmart @depipads same here, no text books in Uni for teacher placements but lots of iTunes U collections #relevance #ADEchat

MirCWalsh Mar 8 @ 3:27 PM EST

A2 A risk but sometimes it helps to think different and get rid of the textbook barriers! #adechat

gavinsmart Mar 8 @ 3:27 PM EST

@deepexperience1 @depipads Still have exercise books at the moment. But would love to give paperless a go! #ADEchat

BronwynWrites Mar 8 @ 3:28 PM EST

@syded06 @MsLuss @tompet71 @gavinsmart Agree! Shouldn't teach to test #ADEchat

ThatEdTechGuy Mar 8 @ 3:28 PM EST

@Mat6453 @jmarrowshcom that seems like the most sensible approach. Great to see you're supporting the schools too. #ADEChat

deepexperience1 Mar 8 @ 3:28 PM EST

The ideal is to combine both and share resources so teachers can personalise them for their own students #ADEchat https://t.co/iG56607hAR

Don't underestimate the comfort felt by a teacher knowing the student has all exam content in a textbook #ADEchat https://t.co/yNyXKV9KzG

  Q6.What do you see being the ultimate school balance between teacher directed & student directed learning? #adechat https://t.co/L5eOxVpbTq

A5: Tech will be (is?) as essential as pencil and paper are (have been?). Kids can share tools, but it puts limits on possibilities #ADEchat

@deepexperience1 Within SEN we will nearly always be teacher led.....very occasionally student led #ADEchat

MrKirkBHS Mar 8 @ 3:58 PM EST

A6: Most crucial, though, is a willingness to get started in the first place. #ADEchat

A6. I think that changes for every class/lesson/subject... As a teacher, I like to go from one to the other and back! #ADEchat

#ADEchat effective teaching and learning is not static. It is a fluid process that changes depending on the lesson/pupils.
