Bryan Drost - Director of Curriculum - From NEOhio, currently in NWOhio excited for curriculum mapping, favorite app iBiker records all of the amazing bike rides I have taken #ohedchat
Q1: Technology is such a powerful tool for learning and efficiency in education. What is your favorite tool, resource, or web site, and why? How does it make learning better? #ohedchat
Garry Young, Principal from Central Ohio. Right now it's probably Dark Sky because we've been camping a lot and I've become weather-obsessed! #ohedchat
A1: Not being in the classroom anymore, I see more of what our teachers are using and how they are interacting with our students. Google Classroom has become a mainstay for communication and keeping resources in one place. #ohedchat
A1: So many tech tools to choose from. I really love how tools like @CanvasLMS or Google Classroom allow for easy communication, sharing, and learning from almost anywhere. #ohedchat
#OHEDchat A1: so many to count, but probably the google suit and laptops. Portability and functionality for both. The ability for ss to collaborate on projects outside of classroom, despite living far from each other is great! (as long as all ss have ISP)
RT Q1: Technology is such a powerful tool for learning and efficiency in education. What is your favorite tool, resource, or web site, and why? How does it make learning better? #ohedchat
A1: Twitter! Itās a great way to connect teachers, administrators, students, and families. Simple, brief messages that can be used to share the great things happening in a classroom, school, or district #OhEdChat

Welcome Alyse! I am wondering how we can build more lessons that encourage Ss to collaborate through sheets - I use it all the time to collaborate with Ts and Admins. #OHedchat
I know it's been around for years but I still love how multiple people can be working together on a document in real time. Such a great way to collaborate. #ohedchat
As a principal, often trying to collect info from my staff. Sheets is easy to make tabs for dept... Track behavior issues, tardies. Make data validation cells. Huge conditional formatting nerd. #ohedchat
A1: creative teaching
The site is designed to help teachers enhance their abilities as teachers & help them make teaching genuinely satisfying & enjoyable. Huge support system to share lessons and strategies.

A1: Adam jumping in late. I like flipgrid to provide a different way for Ss to show that they know. Edpuzzle for embedded questions in videos. Quizizz for a quick assessment/it randomized questions. Anything google. #ohedchat
A2: My students loved PearDeck--they loved having slides immediately in front of them and then being able answer questions, interact with the deck, and see responses to questions. I loved the immediate formative feedback. #ohedchat
#ohedchat - for SS and SCI teachers, they love the academic word finder on https://t.co/ThLIhs6erB. I also really love recap for encouraging collaboration and synthesis.
A2) our students really liked @Ozobot
to create stories to go with their coding instructions. Have seen great creativity and problem solving!! #ohedchat
Academic Word finder is good for identifying those essential words that will build academic vocab and content vocab. https://t.co/awx4RoYnV1 is a good companion site. Makes a word cloud out of the text selection. #OHedchat
#OHEDchat A2: As a HS sci T, trying to implement good sources, using our library and open source journals like @PLOSONE@thePeerJ and teaching about the "site: org; site: edu" trick. for ss: google, imovie, and some animation creation websites (for prjcts)
RT Q2: With the internet and the explosion of resources available, the world is at our students' fingertips. What is one of your favorite tools or resources for your class? What do your students love? Why? #ohedchat
A2: https://t.co/X4OBMtDASu
Students feel like they have a teacher at their fingertips. They like being able to have a resource if the teacher is working with other students. It's like having another teacher in the room.
#ohedchat
A2: my students loved google maps and being able to drop the dude into the map to tour historical sites. We toured Greece, Rome, checked out the Mona Lisa in the Louvre. #ohedchat
Q2: As a science teacher, Iād have to go with @PhETsims. Great interactives for Ss and open-source lesson plans for teachers. I use it all the time! #OhEdChat

A2: I enjoy @Screencastify! Being able to create simple videos for content and allowing students to watch them at their own pace has helped me communicate some key information in a different way. Students really enjoy it! #ohedchat

A2 - Having an LMS (we use Canvas) is important to create the one stop shop for learning. Curate resources and put the best ones in there for easy student access. Can do the same for staff resources. #ohedchat

A3: I have been exploring the old OGT resources. There were districts that had developed games & other fun interactive tools. I'd love to see something similar for AIR. Just another way to try to reach learners. Not sure I have the skills to design something on my own.
