People ask me all the time - “What’s the next big thing coming in education?” This is what I always tell them. Relationships relationships relationships relationships relationships relationships relationships - those never go out of style! #ICE18
You want less behavior issues - ask kids how they want to learn, student choice and voice is important.....and PLEASE don't give them a worksheet #ICE18
Alright #ICE18! It is time to announce ICE's next online book study! - Join us as we read together @MsMagiera 's book Courageous Edventures! Fab way to build our crew - Check out the link for the 411 - https://t.co/aqPLzrUb8s

Off to #ICE18 today! I only signed up for today, but I’m already wishing I would have signed up for all three days as I peruse the Tues & Wed schedules. #lifelongLearners
#ICE18@awelcome getting after it on twittet before conference even begins! But truly never a reason not to when it is these great messages about how #kidsdeserveit
Getting ready for first day of #ICE18 ! Really excited about the all-day @makeymakey workshop, finally get to learn how to use one and looking forward to sharing about it after with our local #entice chapter
Think about what you’re doing each and every day with your students.
Is it relevant? Is it engaging? Does it make sense? And most of all - it’s what’s best for them, not for you or what was best when you went to school. Our #KidsDeseeveIt#ICE18

Looking forward to learning with some amazing educators this week at #ICE18! It's wonderful to be back at the first #edtech conference I ever attended. See you soon @ice_il!
Hello, #ICE18! #MathBRIX is looking forward to the next few days. Come *play* with us at booth 334. Let's talk about engaging young learners. K-2 teachers, ask Tyler & Bettie about our BETA test. #edtech#earlymath

I always plan the sessions I’d like to attend ahead of time...and during the opening address, I always panic and second/third/fourth guess myself. I love #ICE18! Thanks to @ice_il organizers!
The journalism teacher in me just geeked out at @kathyschrock first panel question at #ice18: "What is one thing you love that other people don't love?" What an awesome question to get to know a source!
It’s up to us if we want something to happen in our classrooms and schools. Get over your fears, get over that you don’t know something, get over the fact that you even may be nervous - and go be awesome for kids! #ICE18#KidsDeserveIt
‘Something you believe in that not everybody else agrees with?’ I love that @smartinez’s response is “baby steps.” Couldnt agree more. Any movement forward is a good thing. A marathon starts with a few steps. #ice18
"Kids will brag about you at recess," whether or not you nail a lesson in which you are trying something innovative. So go forth and innovate! #d75learns#ice18
"Every interaction we have either builds culture or kills culture " argues @Joe_Sanfelippo at #ice18. Teachers have the chance to change the classroom in 30 second increments.
Opening session at #ICE18 favorite quote "It's just as hard to make a small change as it is to make a really large change so you might as well go for it!". @smartinez
I am excited to hear, Being innovative in Small, Rural District in Session 2. The room is Nirvana A. Pack this session for @sduling@chadwagner322@AlveyRalvey#ICE18

Starstruck by all of these rockstar educators at #ICE18! Such a fun & inspiring way to start our day—w/a panel discussion! #edtech#futurereadylibs#engage109
"It's really great to be in a place of cognitive dissonance" says @MsMagiera about her work. It's important to challenge ourselves by stepping out of our comfort zones. #ice18
Yes! Loved "playing school" but realized once I got to grad school that "playing school" was very different pedagogy than real teaching & learning. Red Pens stayed in the past with 10-year-old me :). #ICE18

Are you an "awesomeizer" or an "awfulizer"? Love this message from my man @casas_jimmy. Mindset is everything. If you haven't checked out his new book #Culturize, today is the day! #ICE18#FutureReady
Q for @sarahdateechur Without the conditions for change present in a school culture, not even the greatest ideas will take hold. We often talk about professional development for teachers. Why buy more tech when there's not professional development for school leaders? #ICE18
...also, I love that you're on stage and still on Twitter...that's a win! #KeynoteStatus I didn't know about #ICE18 before now- I'll definitely have to check it out for next year.
“Do not wait. Kids deserve to have you there every day. Work smarter. Wok as a team. As a T, harness the power of social media. Do more!” -advice from @awelcome#ice18
In MS, HS, college I had no interest in teaching due to my ideas about what teaching was - as a grad TA realized there was another way #engagekids#askquestions#promotegrowth#ice18
Q for @sarahdateechur if we don't change the way we teach, technology will have little to no impact on learning. What advice do you have for Ts to focus their energy on shifting instructional practices while keeping pace with change? #ICE18
“Do not wait. Kids deserve to have you there every day. Work smarter. Work as a team. As a T, harness the power of social media. Do more!” -advice from @awelcome#ice18
Great question, Eric! I think that the professional learning opportunities are important to put in place FIRST. Check out @MsMagiera's Teacher IEPs...great place to start #ICE18
How do we have impactful, meaningful digital citizenship experiences for Ss in the age of instant gratification? How do we make sure Digital Citizenship is not the next DARE? #ICE18
.@Joe_Sanfelippo is my new hero admin. His passion for teachers and what we do is so inspiring. I wish all my admin and BoE members were here to hear this message, too. #ICE18
As educators, we can’t be split...we are all in this for the same reasons. Connect with each other and deconstruct the decisiveness. - @MsMagiera#ICE18
Great question! We should start with our similarities - what do we have in common - what shared goals are we working towards. Finding common ground is always a great start. #ICE18

Thanks for the wonderful replies & redefining the question itself to my #ice18 Panel Q! I agree that there is much to be enthusiastic about in education - Loved @smartinez : it’s not the tools that empowers students - it’s giving them powerful things to do!
Happy to hear our #col16 coach @sarahdateechur still plays Pokémon go. Glad I am still in good company. Sure there can be an #ice18 raid group if a legendary shows up.
@kathyschrock share something about yourself. Love it! My students love to hear my personal stories and how I relate it to the content. We need to show our students it’s a safe space. #ICE18
Hey Eric! I think peer-to-peer learning is amazing...definitely leveraging the power of tech to connect with other educators and about both of those areas. I love @Voxer to maximize time on my commute. #ICE18

If we can't be creative enough to find a way to have recess [sic PE] every day, we have more work to do. Paraphrase of @awelcome#ice18#Recess4All#MoveEveryDay
Congratulations to @amber_heffner@amylamberti@chanatown and everyone at #ICE18 on your shiny new venue! Greetings from sunny CA. Wish I could be there with you. It will ne the best ICE ever!
It's up to us to #advocate for our students. Yeah. Teachers can be bullies. And when something's not right, we need to step up @awelcome I couldn't agree more #ICE18
When trying to implement a change @kathyschrock says it its better to do one thing and do it deeply rather than trying multiple things at the surface level. #ice18
I’ve never been to a conference where the keynote is a panel but I LOVE IT! And it models the benefit of changing things up when it comes to PD! Change can be good, even if it’s scary at first. #ICE18
@sarahdateechur talks about going deeper, making it more than just surface relationships bc then you're better able to understand where the other person is coming from and can have meaningful discussions. ❤️ #ICE18
You have to know what you want someday to look like, but you also have to know what Monday is going to look like. Change is a process. - @smartinez#ICE18
Have a vision of what “someday” will look like but you also need a vision of what “Monday” will look like - make it a stepping stone toward “someday” #ICE18#D100ICE@smartinez
"Have a vision for Someday, but also a vision for Monday." Monday is coming whether you are ready for not. But don't lose sight of what you want for the future. #ICE18
I love the Adam is up there listening AND interacting with the audience on social media. Thanks for encouraging and empowering these IL educators! #ICE18#KidsDeserveIt
Kids are empowered by doing powerful things. Trust that they can. We can't empower students if we don't empower teachers. Rebuild the system on trust. Great point from @smartinez during #ICE18 opening panel!

@MsMagiera on change. Make sure to hyperfocus on the “why”. So important to consider the purpose and how it will impact students. Change for the sake of change is not as important as making sure you understand why you want to change. #ICE18
Great quote at the #ICE18 opening panel that reminded me of this quote from @RobinSharma, “Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end.” #inspire67
Opening session at #ICE18 favorite quote "It's just as hard to make a small change as it is to make a really large change so you might as well go for it!". @smartinez
One thing I keep hearing: "Just try something new!"... If we want students to try and #failforward, we can't be scared or resistant to #failforward when trying something new #ICE18
"Focus on the "WHY" when making a change. Be aware of how the change effects others...then bring people on board to help them unite as one." @MsMagiera#ICE18
My biggest takeaway from the #ICE18 opening panel: Put the kids first and remember our mission as educators. *Then* think about how to bring tech into our instruction. #Priorities

OUAT, kids played free, happy, with no tech
They stretched their minds & bodies, no pressure to lead innovate or create before they developed and were ready. Happily ignorant of comparing self to others they learned how to converse , dream, and be free.

How to tell YOUR story as seen through the lense of @drorzel and her team’s work in #sd113a - great information for all attendees in the first breakout today at #ICE18
Hey Brian! I totally hear you on that. Scariest thing here = not knowing what to say when faced with things where I had no answers (i.e. tragedies, current events, etc.). Came through it because we (Ss included) helped each other try to figure it out. #ICE18

#ICE18 This is a theory and we will see but I heard there were teachers shot. To me it's likely one of these teachers worked with the Clinton Foundation and may have seen some crime. Or one of the kids parents worked on something related and this is making a statement to all
Never underestimate the importance of building trust in your school district if the goal is working together to achieve greatness - great point, @drorzel#sd113a#ICE18

WiFi upstairs seems to work better than downstairs. Also, the room F and F2 setup is not conducive to my learning preferences. I am reconsidering my choices for the rest of the day. #ICE18
"It's Time to Find Your Edtech Passion!" with Kathy Schrock. Workshops like this one are the reason that I wanted to attend #ICE18. Thank you so much for encouraging us to find new passion, @kathyschrock "Mistakes mean you are trying."- Kathy Schrock.

Presenters at #ICE18 - Friendly tip: Download your presentations so that you don't need to rely on network. Or got to mobile hotspot on the phone. Then you're off and running. #HugOfDeath#NoNetworkNoProblems
Quick Question: #ICE18@ice_il
Are presenters planning on posting their links in Sched for the ICE Conference? Maybe somewhere else?
SO MANY AMAZING sessions and not enough time...and I would love to look over slide decks of sessions I could not attend.
Thanks
I’m eager to get started on our classroom Personalized Learning adventure with so many terrific ideas about inquiry based learning from @mflessas2! I look forward to helping my students form quality essential questions from which to anchor their learning @DrydenSchool#ICE18
Some of my best activities have a Chromebook on the right and some paper on the left. @HeckAwesome showed me the power of #sketchnotes a few years ago! #ICE18

I’d say there’s a few librarians at #ICE18. They gave us a tiny room for the “Make the Library the Literary Hub of the School”, so that was a mistake... #libraries#tlchat

Love the idea of taking different types of "selfies" with each other. Then when you have to work in partners the person that makes that face is your partner. LOVE IT!! #ICE18
Offer SS the "Opportunity For Revising" their learning, assignments, + graded assignments = just like we revise our writing over several days #ice18#OfFeR
Hi @mjohnson316 We miss you here at #ice18 . Thanks for all you did in the past to help @ice_il get to where it is today! Great team! Enjoy retirement! @aglowaty

Be strategic when choosing sessions at #ICE18. Don't just watch someone presenting on HOW to use #edtech. @YouTube is full of user manuals. Find a presenter who will push your thinking about instructional strategies. #ICE18#iceilchat#edtech#edchat
A model for ALL Professional Development:
(1) Learn
(2) Experiment
(3) Reflect
Teachers need time to build with what they learned. Facilitators should encourage reflection so teachers carefully & strategically use technology & new ideas.

Use storytelling to teach content. It results in more brain activity, more personal connections, and, ultimately, greater retention of material! Makes me think of @Illini_DaveK & incredible storytelling in his 8th grade history class! @kathyschrock#ICE18#engage109
At the Illinois Computing Educators conference and I bumped into two @CCHSCorsairs students who are presenting this afternoon! Can’t wait to learn about @CleanMCVideos from them!#ICE18
POLAND lost 6 million citizens in WWII - 3 million Jewish Poles and 3 million non-Jewish Poles. The former were not citizens of Israel (which did not exist at the time). Poland has the right to issue an anti-defamation law to defend historical truth about her own people.
She was not the One... here in Poland... Ulma family: father, pregnant mother and six children were executed by Germans for helping Jews. Poland was the only country where the people were killed with their families and yet they DID help.
My grandma Krystyna. She survived Wola Massacre. Horrible days when Dirlewanger and Reinefarth units murdered over 60k civilians from Wola district during Warsaw Uprising. Mostly women and children.
P.S She was a Polish Christian, as was most of the residents of Wola.

As everyone dives into their sessions to share and learn this week at #ICE18, remember that we want to come out of it w/ new learning to support a wide range of students & teachers. #iledchat#edtech#edtechchat
Learning about gamifying differentiated PD using an anonymous sports-centered faculty leaderboard with @ckimbarovskyd70 at #ICE18! (I'd use Hogwarts houses, but I'm a book geek.) #ETCoaches
Find models of great things teachers are doing and let your teachers study it, mimic it, build off of it. Let them pick what matches their needs/the needs of their kids. #ICE18
We did, briefly. He was getting ready to be part of the panel. @Joe_Sanfelippo had the best line of the morning - he was thinking about driving 13 marathons this year! #ICE18

@HetherHoffmann shared a ton of great ideas at #ICE18 but my favorite had to be Children's Stories as Rap featuring @Ludacris Llama Llama as an example for students
#STEAM design challenges that make the most of low-tech and high-tech resources - pop up furniture, redesign and reinvent challenges, clothing commemorations @HetherHoffmann#ICE18
WiFi upstairs seems to work better than downstairs. Also, the room F and F2 setup is not conducive to my learning preferences. I am reconsidering my choices for the rest of the day. #ICE18

The question is a bit silly since everyone wants “substantial change” for our students but no one in positions to do so is willing to create conditions that lead to “substantial change.” #ICE18
Educators at #ICE18 discussing their favorite field trip. The energy in the room was fantastic! Thanks for sharing and attending the VFT workshop. #ice18vft
Tomorrow, I'm walking the exhibit hall at #ICE18 to create "Carrie's favorite Things in #edtech 2018". Tweet me if your #edtechteam will be there. Can't wait to share my list with my e2e Insider #network. @eSparkLearning at the @JAMFSoftware will be my first stop! #teacher
How does everyone extend learning past classroom walls? What does it look like? What tools do you use? How do you setup expectations? #inspire96#ice18#DigilearnIRL
Having a blast at #ICE18 today! Can’t believe the day is already halfway over! I’m missing my students a lot, but excited to bring back lots of new ideas and learning opportunities! 🎉 #patton25
@LearningTechNLU Thank you for a great session! I will be thinking about how to use technology tools to help enhance the 4Cs in order to provide a more connected learning environment for students #DigilearnIRL#ICE18#makelearningrelevant
In my third session at #ICE18 and have shared @OneNoteEDU with fellow attendees in each session. They are all curious about my note taking and tool! #MIEExpert

I’m curious about how the attendance on the #ICE18 app correlated to the actual capacity of sessions. Specifically the math sessions which are beyond full.

Love this! “You can’t teach kids how to be good people unless you teach them to evaluate the media messages they consume that are telling them the opposite.” Powerful messages from @julnilsmith. #ice18
Scrum board: look at what you’ve done in the past, what are we working on right now but aren’t finished with, and what we’ve accomplished. Story-To Do-In Progress-Review-Done (add sticky notes with standards under each, for example. Connect to prior units.) #ICE18
How does everyone extend learning past classroom walls? What does it look like? What tools do you use? How do you setup expectations? #inspire96#ice18#DigilearnIRL
Can have students stand up at the start of class, talk about what they did yesterday, what they’re doing today, and a challenge they’re facing. Maybe a teacher can help, maybe another student. #ICE18
@ideaguy42 remove the "setup" and "decorator" mindset. Setting up and decorating your class doesn't set you up for change and working with different students each year #ICE18
Embrace failure. Take risks. Startups are trying to do things that have never been done before without any empirical evidence. Do this as an educator. Teach kids it’s okay to do the same. Fail early, fail often, fail forward. That’s where the lessons are. #ice18
"We have to get out of a "set up" mindset and get into a designers mindset. We need to get everyone together to make decisions. Do no just buy a bunch furniture with have a bigger conversation." #ICE18
#ICE18@HollyClarkEdu now sharing @Flipgrid Checks for Understanding with students. Only a few hands went up in this session. Lives are about to be changed!
Social media can be a superpower...share your message, work, and impact. Encourage others to do the same and then your story, the real story, gets talked about. - @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18
I saw a presentation about Pinapple Charts in my Technology for Leaders class this week, so I checked out the Pinapple Charts presentation at #ICE18. I think this is an excellent idea and I am going to see if we can get this going in our PLC group.
Collaborate separately from your personal messages. It’s okay to keep work and life separate. Work/life balance is important. Google Hangouts or Slack. Can have group chats for different topics! Collaborate with students and colleagues. #ICE18
Mantra...@Joe_Sanfelippo All it takes is one person to share something out and the new narrative starts. @RachE_Baughman let's keep on social media-ing #ICE18
Later this afternoon catch up with our team at booth 220 to learn how Mimir Classroom, a tool that automates #cs education for instructors, is revolutionizing curriculum delivery! P.S. - awesome tchotchkes await too! #ICE18
There’s NO reason why we shouldn’t be sharing our school’s stories on social media...showing what’s going on inside the classrooms! @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18
Be a Social Media Superhero. Tell your story. Spread the inspiration. Share the narrative that’s real and be proud of your craft. Fill in the gaps= respect for our profession and how it has changed. @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18
In every school and district, the story is going to be told and people will fill in the gaps. WE need to be the social media superheroes and share the narrative! Thank you @Joe_Sanfelippo! #ICE18#inspire67
We have a lot of people that are “filling in the gaps” of our stories - the gaps aren’t always the best information! Based on their perspective/context via @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18
Define the problem. Create a hypothesis for a solution. Focus on what you can control in your own room. Don’t get hung up on what’s out of your control. #ICE18

"Think about it. Our classrooms are the only place where our kids are not picking the media they are consuming." No *wonder* they tune us out! #ICE18@julnilsmith
The rewiring of the brain due to social media & tech is amazing but scary. I wonder if #edtech tools should exploit the addiction to dopamine due to social media or try to help break the habit?
#ice18
The coin noise from Super Mario Brothers gives you a rush of seratonin. It’s why there’s a big push to gamify classrooms. Chemical reaction to get kids engaged. How can you mimic this in your classroom? #ICE18
What if you are the only person that will tell a story of a particular child? What if there’s nobody at home talking about them? Be the person to share positive stories about the students in your schools #ICE18
Loving seeing pictures of screens from conferences with my work on them. Love knowing I'm helping teachers with tech even while I teach my students. @kathyschrock is awesome. #ice18#PowerUpEd

@HollyClarkEdu#ICE18
Google infused classroom - loved that we need to embrace the fact that kids are hyper connected, their learning is social, and how amazing that students are relating globally! Use technology to AMPLIFY this process...♥️♥️♥️
@HollyClarkEdu#ICE18 Love the possibilities of FlipGrid at the high school level! Would be a great way to hear from my most reluctant freshmen and Juniors.

The face you make when you realize you should have been using Flipgrid and Socrative in your classroom all year. Thank you @HollyClarkEdu for teaching me two ways to give all students a voice in my classroom in an engaging way! #ICE18
The process of design is where the learning opportunity is with 3D printing. The end printed product is sometimes no more important than the laser printed essay in the writing process. @smartinez#ICE18
Not a huge fan of the divided rooms at #ICE18 where you can easily hear the other side, especially for those of us with reduced hearing as it makes it extremely difficult to hear the presenter.

@LisaBerghoff “Students are taking their 5 minute Ignite talks and uploading videos of them to their digital portfolios.” #ICE18 This is a great example of creating empowered learners.
Applied Digital Skills - new, free curriculum about digital literacy. Modern digital workplace skills. For MS & HS. Think of it as the new “keyboarding class” all project based. using tech tools to achieve a goal. Includes annotated lesson plans. 90 hrs of video. #ICE18

What are grades meant to assess? Skills? Standards? Content knowledge? The discussion with the people in the session run by @JoyKirr#ICE18 is bringing up passionate conversation.
CS First (elementary) — helps teachers to facilitate computer science classes or clubs about computer science (even if you don’t know how yourself!) & Google CS 4 HS: grants for HS teachers who want to learn about comp science so they can teach it! #ICE18

“Get from your point A to your point B.” “Start somewhere” Thanks @DominicManola for the awesome conversation around “Teaching & Learning in An Ever Changing World!” #ICE18#BeTheChange#d10learns
Great to connect with @DrKMattson@mj_warden at #ICE18 to talk about #DigitalCitizenship for new teachers and students. Great suggestion... how are we communicating with higher ed. institutions about #digcit and preservice teachers?
Our breakout group led by @JoyKirr about healthy grading at #ICE18 has turned into an interesting debate about what is essential and non-essential to grading in today’s classrooms.
We stand with the NRA. We stand with the core values instilled to us in our constitution by our founding fathers.
Democrats want to destroy and attack this to advance their monetary and policy objectives.
We will never allow that to happen.

You learn you need a storyboard after you make a video without one. Ts over-explain which limits the creative learning process. If we only ask Ss to make one video, we teach them about storyboarding bc it’s the only chance we have. #ice18@smartinez
“I don’t buy into the concept of content specialists at the high school level. High schools should be filled with learning specialists with an interest in specific content.” #ice18
When making, kids don’t need feedback from a teacher to know if they are right or wrong - it will be obvious and they will continue working on their own until they get it! Back away and let them learn! #D100ICE#ice18
Schools don’t like things messy. We help and help and help until they aren’t doing a project, they are following a recipe. We have to give kids TIME and SPACE to do this. We have to resist fake design challenges that guarantee success and embrace uncertainty #ice18@smartinez
So fun being at #ICE18 again this year, panel this morning with super awesome friends, Kids Deserve It session and so many awesome people to hang with, flying home in a few and can’t wait for Missouri next Monday!

Hey @ice_il the Schaumburg E room cut in half is ROUGH. I feel for the presenters fighting to be louder than the other. OOF as I typed this the other 1/2 just exploded in volume. #NoBeuno#ICE18#ICE2018#FixIt
Awesome seeing you in action today sir! Want you to know how grateful I am for your insight & energy...not just today; also following your journey for a few years! You have impacted my practice brother. #ice18#KidsDeserveIt#gratitudechangesattitude
Spent some quality time with middle school students from #ipsd204 who are about to give a session about their student tech support initiatives. Wonderful group of kids and kudos to the admins, staff, and educators for bringing them to #ice18 to present!

Do you ever wonder - what did I get done today? Change the question - How INTENTIONAL are we about doing what we need to do at school? Learning more from @Joe_Sanfelippo at #ICE18
5 minutes into @Joe_Sanfelippo and I'm happy that someone knows me. It's hard to feel like we get anything done on any given day. #engageD64, we should start #my3 ! #ICE18
Need help managing your 1:1 #chromebook program? 💻 #Hapara has the visibility, differentiation and analytics support you need! Come see it in action at booth 830 #studentvoice#ICE18
Any D64 teachers attending ICE tomorrow? Listen to my husband, Collin Voigt, and his colleague Derrick Swistak present "Double Vision: Improve the Focus of Your Instruction" @ice_il#ICE18https://t.co/Gg5LMrqZmy
Awesome privilege to introduce my good friend, @HallDavidson and his amazing presentation on AR & VR and maybe even AI! He is himself an innovation icon! Even gave a shoutout to my new friend @JaimeDonally and her new book “Learning Transported” by @iste#ICE18
How to turn on speak screen - once you get to safari - swipe down from the top of your screen with two fingers! So helpful for language learners! #ForTheLoveOfLearning#ICE18#D100ICE@AppleEDU
Thank you @awelcome for the energetic session this morning! @Joe_Sanfelippo sure knows how to create culture in 30 seconds! Thanks for being on my team! #ICE18#D100ICE
“At the end of the day you will be remembered.” .... “What will you be remembered for today?” Thank you @Joe_Sanfelippo for inspiring me today! #sd113a#ICE18
Loved hearing @awelcome speak today at #ICE18 also pretty excited about my new bracelet and sticker to remind me of his message! #kidsdeserveit#62Learns
It doesn't take long - 30 seconds!
Be proud and promote the work that's happening.
Take time to thank someone.
Take time to talk with your students.
@Joe_Sanfelippo at #ICE18
It’s not the time-30 seconds even, it’s about what you do with the time. Be intentional in using your time to craft a proud moment and connect @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18
Our team is ready to play at @ice_il#ICE18 at 3:30 when the exhibit hall opens! First educator to come have a play with us wins FREE registration to our April 27th TECPlay conference in #tech#play#earlychildhood
Great to see two students talking about how they want to see @PlayCraftLearn integrated into the classroom. As well as what they are doing to help. Make sure you check out @CleanMCVideos and all their amazing resources! #ICE18#MinecraftEdu
Stop saying, "I'm JUST a teacher."
Why do we have to justify what we do?
We inspire, we encourage, and we need to build each other up.
I --> We --> They. WE are the start of the change.
@Joe_Sanfelippo at #ICE18
No matter the day, I always try to greet my students with a "Happy . . . " at the door. I think they appreciated it. I know I miss it on the days I am not there! #ICE18#therestimeforthat

Thank you @npolyak@mikelubelfeld for an outstanding & engaging session. “The Unlearning Leader” encourages reflection & growth towards improved positive leadership! #ICE18
Heh @KarlyMoura if you get some DMs and messages about @Flipgrid totally my fault 😃 you were in my presentation to a room full of admin today! #ICE18#flipgridfever
You have “awfulizers” in your organizations who drive conversations. It’s easier to walk by them than stand up to them! Do not let them get louder! #ICE18@Joe_Sanfelippo@casas_jimmy
Don't let the "awfulizers" run the conversation. #Culturize@casas_jimmy
We need to have REAL conversations with each other so we build a culture of trust.
@Joe_Sanfelippo at #ICE18
"Digital Citizenship is all about communities. It's not an add on, it's everything." @mbfxc experience with an iCitizen project shaped her definition of #digcit. How are you using tech for good, building community and solving problems both local and global? #ICE18
Happen to be in the Chicago area for #ICE18. Stop by our booth and learn about how we can work with your schools to improve reading, writing and K-2 Science! @SpellingCity@Writingcityk5@Science4UsSays
Great hearing from the students and leadership at @ipsd204@sgorbatkin204 and @allandavenport on their journey implementing a middle school tech squad to empower students and allow them to solve authentic tech problems to create efficiencies. Great work to all! #ice18
Created on @canva in @NoApp4Pedagogy's #ICE18 presentation.
Addendum: Each mistake that you make while solving that problem also makes you a little smarter ;)
With all of the technology, many of my student still understand geometry best because they've touched a compass and straightedge. Only THEN does any program make sense to them. #ICE18
Well this is a first. @Joe_Sanfelippo talking to @Joe_Sanfelippo. #ICE18
Seriously. I see a lot of speakers. He is undoubtedly one of the best. Listening to him talk about being intentional. Powerful stuff.
Welcome to the ICE 2018 conference! Stop by booth 510 to check out our research-based reading interventions. Our programs help with reading fluency, vocabulary, phonics, phonemic awareness and comprehension. #ICE18
Design Literacy with @KatieDiebold Teaching students to be intentional in graphics, fonts, colors, and photos in Google Slides or Drawings. Important to teach text structure first! #ICE18#TrojanForce322
Looks like #ICE18 is off to a great start! Can't wait to attend tomorrow and present with @MGustafson_11 on 2/28 about Technology and Family Engagement.
"Let's never forget why we make decisions in this school district."
Be intentional with your words & actions. Define your own narrative.
@Joe_Sanfelippo at #ICE18
Arghh - should have gone to this session. I'm in the front row, the speaker stands right in front of me, and he's is sharing what he does, not tips/tricks/strategies for all . . . Taking notes??
#ICE18
I may give @Joe_Sanfelippo a hard time. Every. Day.
But, you’ll be hard pressed to find a more passionate, dedicated, authentic, kid-centered leader in schools today. Proud to call him one of my best buds. #ICE18
Thank you, #ICE18, for providing such passionate educators that share their stories.
When I get a chance, I'll thank individuals!
Thank you to my @AHSD25Thomas students and staff for letting us come, too!
Getting geared up for @ICE_IL in Schaumburg! Looking to talk Admin EdTech? Come by the booth #430 and chat with Amplified IT team members Melissa & Brittany #GFE#Google#GoogleForEducation#EDTECH#ICE18
Expo hall doors are about to open for #ICE18! The first 500 attendees to stop by the #PearDeck Booth 409 will receive a tote bags filled with info and swag! Hall opens soon, we hope to see you there!
Anyone pushing or advocating to #BoycottNRA because they stand up and fight for our constitution are just sheep lining themselves up for the slaughter. Many are political puppets pushing the agenda of the world's elites.
"To conquer a nation first disarm its citizens."
Really enjoying @julnilsmith's #DigCit workshop at #ICE18! "Less preaching, more coaching!" Are you teaching students how to recognize bots, read terms of service, cope with anxiety and emotional tolls, and control their online narratives? Excellent presentation!
#ICE18 Very informative and engaging workshop on news literacy for digital natives! Thanks @c_johnson007 for sharing resources and strategies! And eye-opening stat: Gen Z has 8 sec attention span! #62Learns#medialiteracy
Thank you very much for everyone’s support at our #ICE18 presentation! We are thrilled to have received support from many educators, school administrators, and parents.
Start looking at time differently; it’s not that we don’t have enough of it, it’s that we need to be much more intentional about how we use it to build culture and relationships @Joe_Sanfelippo#ICE18

Taking a break to add the finishing touches to my presentation for tomorrow at #ICE18 . Join me at 2:30 in Schaumburg F for Inquiry Based Strategies to Support Personalized Learning. We will have fun!
Thanks for sharing! I teach #ellchat#sschat and have played with the idea of portfolios. This will help me along the way. Any tips for a HS US History course? Organize by skill vs. content/unit?
#ice18
Love following #ICE18 today but wish I could be there. Congrats to @ice_il team, and co-chairs @chanatown & @amylamberti for huge success at new venue!
If you couldn’t join me at #ICE18 today, here’s a link to my session, Classroom or Start-up? Turn your classroom into a design thinking hub https://t.co/CoPcPSaakl#D90learns
Thanks to @NoApp4Pedagogy for sharing some great anecdotes & resources to take with us back to our district. Technology is useless when not integrated properly! #ICE18
Don't make it digital, make it DATA! How many kids missed #7 and what are you going to do about it? Use tools that give you quick data to respond to. #ICE18#edtech
We're excited to be at the @ice_il#ICE18 conference tomorrow! @MawiAsgedom will be speaking about the impact of online and bended learning on leadership and language acquisition.
Check out the the Schaumburg Ballroom #ICE18 for the student esports showcase. People standing out from with drink tickets and full refreshments area...mmmmmmm
Great day at #ICE18 today! Saw so many awesome things. Always awesome seeing and meeting @Joe_Sanfelippo. A year ago you encouraged me to go on a journey with the kids. Thank you! #GoCrickets#kanelandpride
First tangible thing to do: dump Carnegie unit.
Second thing: change teacher "appraisal" (hate that word almost as much as "engagement" and "integration") to focus on self growth rather than checking meaningless boxes.
#ICE18#ICE2018
We're excited to be at #ICE18 this week! Set up some time to meet up 1-on-1 with one of our team members to learn more about how you can use Newsela to boost reading engagement in your classroom! https://t.co/Nn2n4D9uYd
Brayden was so jealous that I got to hang out with his principal @ddanielski today at #ICE18! And his little sister can’t wait to be a Star next year! #WeAre44
Can't wait to add this to my digital citizenship but....real world middle schoolers....your snaps are used by Snapchat! Thanks @julnilsmith! #ice18#62cms#62Learns
Esports...if only I was a kid still. College scholarships for students video gaming is here, and high schools are jumping in. Watching Carl Sandburg HS take on Maine West HS. #ICE18
AHHH!!! So this happened today!! If you ever get a chance to hear @awelcome speak...take it! The #KidsDeserveIt message is not only powerful one but an unforgettable one! #ICE18#323learns#tlap
When a teacher plans their whole conference presence around your session... how honored. We are so thankful for the opportunity to connect with some awesome educators at #ice18. @ice_il

"eSports reach students who are not otherwise represented in other activities." Watching 2 schools compete in a League of Legends tournament at #ICE18. 2018 is a year of firsts for #ICE18!

We're picking some of the sessions we're most excited to see at #ICE18, including @WickedEdTech presenting "Google Secrets - You Don't Know What You Don't Know!" tomorrow at 10:45 in Schaumburg G.

I’m really excited to try this with my language arts classes! We’ll finally be 1-to-1 next year, so I can replace my paper portfolios with digital ones!! Thanks for all the great info! #ICE18
Third AHHHH moment of my day was having the pleasure to meet & hear @julnilsmith speak! WHOA! Amazing, powerful, meaningful, relevant, important...the list goes on! Best. Day. Ever. #ICE18#323learns#tlap
Hey #ICE18, if you want to give eSports a try, we’re doing an eSports Tweetup in the playful lounge tomorrow at 5pm! First 15 people are guaranteed a seat. Pass it on!
I have to admit four years ago I was afraid when my school first adopted Office 365 but it has changed my life. What would you do if you weren't afraid? #ICE18#ICE2018@MicrosoftEDU#MIEExpert#msfte
There is no I in team, but there certainly are I's in a wonderful alliteration of upcoming professional development...
#ICE18 begins Monday in Schaumburg
#ILfabCon in Huntley, June 21-22

Be great. #KidsDeserveIt

I'm at Keynote: Engaging Neurodiverse Individuals: The Power of Acceptance and Positivity by Chris Ulmer @ice_il@schedhttps://t.co/NsmeL3Wv4K. Special Books by Special Kids. Nice way to finish out the day! #ICE18
I'm so thankful for the opportunity to attend the #ICE18 conference. Thank you @KanelandHarter and @Kaneland302 for supporting us in our endeavors to improve our practices for our students.
Considering ways to help build/ reinforce strong #literacy strategies for Eds & Ss across grade levels/content areas?
Actively Learn offers a reduced rate for Spring/Summer Pilot Programs! #futureready#ICE18#ILAchat#edtech#edtechchat
I love that @chrisulmer has so much empathy and perspective when meeting and working with human beings. Reminds me of one of my favorite empathy videos https://t.co/HNGoGbRn6n#ice18
Great periscope with @mbfxc@froehlichm@hoonuit during #ICE18 awesome to hear you speaking about the book and importance of learning together and working through challenges
Elementary teachers if you are attending #ICE18 please consider stopping by tomorrow for my presentation at noon on Why Should We Code in the Elementary Classroom @phintz@gotynker@scratch@LEGO_Group#coding
"What do you want people to say to you?" Amazing power in these words to connect with others. Thanks for the inspiration and reminder on the value of connections @chrisulmer! #sbsk#ICE18
Thank you @Flipgrid for setting us up to share some free Flip Grid premium trials and Flipgrid Swag at #ICE18 We even have a 1 year Premium Upgrade up for grabs during our #HyperDocs Session! https://t.co/qLcj74HM1M
Love this..."When you form a bond with someone who has a different perspective... Their perspective becomes your own. Such a great message! @chrisulmer#ICE18#RedBud132Learns
@LibbySchaaf your job mayor is to keep American Citizens safe. These undocumented people do not have the same rights as Americans. Sorry not sorry. #BuildTheWall#ICE18#USA
LOVE your story about TMS!!!! Now I get to follow you and add you to my "met f2f" list, as well. Thanks for the 15 seconds and the rest!! Let's be more intentional when we get back to school! #ICE18
Truth! And I love that @alicekeeler is at my old stomping grounds in Illinois. The ICE Conference has always been one of the best edtech conferences out there! #ICE18
If we say we are paperless we are shutting out thousands of amazing activities that are better with paper. And kids should touch stuff other than a computer #ICE18
In my presentation I give" 6 Reasons Why You Should Reconsider Using an Audience Response System" as part of your assessment for learning. #ICE18#MSFTEduChat
Major takeaway from day one of #ICE18 is that the culture created in the classroom by the teacher for the students is so much more important than any tech, tablet, furniture, or curricular model. Thanks @JeremyMcBrayer@gm8585@ideaguy42@sgarton121 for the great lessons today
@CathyGrochowski: Ideas to improve lesson design/delivery. Learn SMART tips/tricks! I'll be presenting "Seen Enough Glorified Projectors?". Exhibiting Feb 26-28 at #ICE18, Schaumburg. Come visit booth 304! Sign up here https://t.co/kupQcWnh5R@ICE_IL

Driving out to Schaumburg for the #ICE18 conference today gave me a chance to listen to #Booked in the car. Thanks @kwamealexander for renewing my love of audiobooks! It had been a while. What should I listen to next?? #GowerReads#CaudillChallenge
Hearing about the success of “Toast Tuesday” & how @chrisulmer could actually measure the effects of sharing affirmations with each of his students #ICE18
Thx to @ice_il volunteers and board members for a great first day #ICE18 Can’t wait for Day 2: We present Mapping Your Way to Early Coding w/@kirstinmcginnis at 9 am tomorrow & then we will be in the Tech Playground all day
When traveling with a flight anxious partner, don’t say, “I hope you can swim.” Reflect first, ALWAYS reflect before you speak. Words and reactions are powerful. @chrisulmer#ICE18
@NVHS_LMC_Main It was nice to meet you & talk visible learning from a HS, MS, & elem (with a dash of LMC) perspective - thanks for stopping by the table! #ICE18@MrBHeisler
Always believe someone is competent when interacting with them for the first time. Never assume a diagnosis or disability prevents a person from communicating and telling their story. "Presume competence" Chris Ulmer #ICE18
That moment when you know you've done something right... I had wrote this for her before a meet she was nervous about...open the image to view her message to me today #BlessedAndGrateful#ICE18
When a young lady stands up in the middle of @chrisulmer Q&A and says “I hope you remember interviewing me”, and he calls the young lady by name, then asks how her bracelet business is going. #ICE18#inspirational
We got a lot of questions at @ice_il#ICE18 today about where our robotics maze mat came from. Our friends at @lighthouse_educ here in IL make will customize them for you. Our preference w/young children: kids design their own mazes with found materials/blue painters tape
@awelcome Thank you for reigniting the fire in me. Hearing you speak this morning was exactly what I needed to get me going again. #KidsDeserveIt#ICE18
Thank you to @ice_il for inviting me to #ICE18 and to all the educators who made this “first time attendee” feel so welcome! Enjoy the rest of the conference!
Our challenge? Take a picture of the chandelier. So, I took a picture of our Photo Walk group taking a picture of the chandelier. We didn’t look odd at all. 😉 #ICE18#fortheloveoflearning#D100ICE
Q4: Going to conferences is very expensive, especially for rural educators where travel to large cities may be cost prohibitive. How can rural educators stay informed about the latest trends? (Let’s not say Twitter, as we are already here.) #edtechchat
Great messages & inspirational stories from @chrisulmer tonight at #ICE18 ! Thanks for educating everyone on the beautiful differences we all have & the small changes we can make to create a more welcoming world, where everyone can feel appreciated & accepted 🌎❤️ #MortonPride
Great day at #ICE18! Really loved making connections with people...but the best part of my day was easily the way that @ice.illinois reacted to the #gocrickets crew. Our people crush it and I’m glad Illinois gets a chance to meet them. Enjoy the rest of … https://t.co/MnaeWEDjoK

Had a great time at the ICE Conference! It was a great experience for our players and coaches to get to tell our story and compete on the big stage against @MWActivities . Thank you to @amber_heffner and @illinicloud for providing us with this opportunity! #eSports#ICE18

When your first night at #ICE18 ends in great conversation with @audreyoclair with the assurance that she is bringing @holydonutmaine from Maine to Chicago in June for @iste... #ISTE18
What do I like most about conferences like #ICE18? THE PEOPLE!!! It was so awesome reconnecting with everyone today and making new friends. Can't wait for tomorrow!
