    Hackers take an idea and try different things with it, innovate. The idea is efficiency and increased engagement in education. #mtedchat
  • cristama - Moderator Aug 29 @ 10:04 PM EDT
    A hack in education is a powerful idea for solving education related problems that tends to have an “Aha!” result when implemented #mtedchat

    As a coach, that's one of my big reasons for helping teachers intentionally transition certain lessons to digital. Efficiency! #MTedchat

    Why transition away from documents? #mtedchat

    Definitely. We have to stop TALKING about imp of culture, and start fostering and sustaining trust. Slow down and connect #mtedchat

    That's partly why I personally need to not always rely on digital tools for collaboration... We need face time. Stories. #mtedchat

    One hurdle that may b good to approach quickly is talking about *trying* new tools, evaluate them. Maybe help w/open mindedness? #MTedchat
