A1 Like that person better really be invested in what I have written. Also, that maybe it's not important enough 2 share w/others #edchatME

MViTDiTeach Mar 28 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A1: Sometimes timid side of me enjoys only 1 person will see my work. The T side knows others who read it help me get better. #edchatme

Student's first blogs. Would love some feedback for them. https://t.co/WNh7WgrpcD #edchatME #ADEChat

tia_pittounicos Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1. I would be disappointed, I enjoy sharing my hard work with others. It helps share ideas #edchatme #UNEedu

MisterCMaine - Moderator Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@GeoffCyr For sure... what do we do about those Ss who don't feel this way or they don't want to blog? #EdChatME

AliceMLynch Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

I agree.... it is great to share work - to hear feedback and generate new ideas #EdChatME https://t.co/naDOXAx8YP

#EdChatME A1 If only one person could see my work I'd be lonely & have no context for my quality or effectiveness

vschultes_ Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1 I would feel as tho I was only getting a one sided perspective of feedback on my work if only one person could see itw #uneedu #edchatme

lwing89 Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1: I think it depends on what I want feedback on, or the purpose of the writing. Sometimes I want to share share share! #edchatme

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@jbailey8 1 on 1 attention is pretty hard to come by, and definitely valuable! #edchatme

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@mwing19 I tend to think so! #edchatme

MentzerKatie Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1: I would be upset, I like to share my work & get feedback. But @ the same time if I'm doing my job well does it matter? #edchatME #uneedu

devStets Mar 28 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1) Part of the enjoyment of creating is seeing how others react. Great way for feedback as well. #edchatme

T_HEB Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

It takes practice to have your work seen by others, to receive feedback, and to give feedback. @responsiveclass #edchatme

MisterCMaine - Moderator Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Q1, 1 more time... #EdChatME https://t.co/JilbHlFPK8

MisterCMaine - Moderator Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 I think many Ss feel this way... SAFE. How do we inspire and/or give purpose for these Ss to be challenged? Hmm.. #EdChatME

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@MisterCMaine choice can certainly come into play. I don't always want to share everything I do, either. #edchatme

sharlene__may Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1: If only one person saw my work I would always be looking to please one person rather than having plethora of feedback #edchatme #UNEedu

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@MisterCMaine But Ss who are engaged in what they're doing and want to share with others should absolutely have that opportunity #edchatme

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@audreyoclair Maybe it depends on who your reader is? Good results if you value and respect that one person's opinion? #edchatme

RossCoops31 - Moderator Mar 28 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Today, there is NO REASON why your work should have an audience of one. #edchatme

@eringobragh29 Sure. But how quickly might I fatigue of creating for that one person? To create for the world allows for more... #edchatME

A2) You can get feedback from classmates simultaneously, not shackled to passing around a stack of papers one at a time #edchatme

A2: new media both elongates the writing process/iteration, re-drafting easy, and yet at same time makes publishing/sharing quick #edchatme

MaineSchoolTech - Moderator Mar 28 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Writing was primarily a final product-oriented monologue but is now much more frequently an multiple iteration-driven dialogue #edchatme

@MaineSchoolTech @GeoffCyr This is one reason @AOS94ME is putting @isteconnects & Tech Integ into our TEval sys. #digcitNOW #EdChatME

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@eringobragh29 @MaineSchoolTech Not something I can do alone, need buy-in and broad commit so everyone contributes, even a little #edchatme

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@GeoffCyr @MaineSchoolTech I am literally in the thick of that right now. I just keep telling myself that it'll be worth it!! #edchatme

A6. Google hangout w/ exp. class to get tips and tricks. Then shared blogging about a sever weather exp. we all had in the county! #edchatme

MauriDufour Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A6 Ss work https://t.co/Z0ImtXZmpL @KidblogDotOrg. Ss share their stories and learning in the moment #EdChatME

MiaLMorrison Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

I have Ss create a photoblog to get them sharing and then add more text as they get comfortable #EdChatME

MaineSchoolTech - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A6: Start class discussion b4 class on blog (e.g. https://t.co/i964CebyxN) then select some responses as discussion seeds in class #edchatme

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard @MaineSchoolTech @AOS94ME @isteconnects I think I'd be burned at the stake if I pushed for this #edchatme

RossCoops31 - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

I always had my 4th graders alternate reading/blogging for HW. They should be reading AND writing/blogging all the time! #edchatme

DrMerriRajaniem Mar 28 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A6. Ss choice of issues important and relevant to them. #edchatme

MViTDiTeach Mar 28 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@RossCoops31 Love this concept! #edchatme

MauriDufour Mar 28 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A6 I don't monitor posts only provide feedback! Never let their light go dull. Let them shine all the time. The story is theirs #EdChatME

MisterCMaine - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@GeoffCyr @MaineSchoolTech @AOS94ME @isteconnects Feel free to use us as an example. You can too! #edchatme

MrsBishopSMS Mar 28 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A5: I have Ss respond to prompts, AH-HA moments, & struggles after sections as all Ss are on different levels. @MisterCMaine #edchatme

cinehead Mar 28 @ 9:24 PM EDT

#EdChatME A6 Try #multimedia formats for Ss blogging https://t.co/iul1fypmwI >@MiriamSachs

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A6: My fav S blogs aren't always the longest or most sophisticated ones. I like the funny ones the best! #edchatme https://t.co/G2CEdmivSu

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@mrs_toner2 @eringobragh29 @MaineSchoolTech I've taken on too many things by myself that have not led to buy-in, at this point. #edchatme

MaineSchoolTech - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A6: Have you all seen Quadblogging for cross class convos? https://t.co/KtRX8Ak9JO Fosters year-long inter-school discussions #edchatme

GeoffCyr Mar 28 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@mrs_toner2 @eringobragh29 @MaineSchoolTech Need to find a way to work alongside, not in front. Reqs time, PD that we don't have #edchatme

MiaLMorrison Mar 28 @ 9:25 PM EDT

When we are starting I tell Ss not to worry about spelling or grammar - just share thoughts.. add/use media as desired #EdChatME

mel10597 Mar 28 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@MisterCMaine @MisterCLoranger That is great! We have had 2 Q&A blogging online sessions with older and younger grades. Powerful! #edchatme

RossCoops31 - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Don’t forget that most blogging platforms can also be leveraged as digital portfolios! #edchatme

#EdChatME A6 Check out this great #mutlimedia blog post my student made about her documentary in Cuba. https://t.co/5un5hV2syt #PBL

DrMerriRajaniem Mar 28 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A5. Honestly not blogging.yikes! Doctorate prog time consuming. Changed jobs 3 ys ago & blogs connected to school. Not smart. #edchatme

RossCoops31 - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:27 PM EDT

MiaLMorrison Mar 28 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@lwing89 absolutely! Build confidence and help Ss find their voice! #EdChatME

cinehead Mar 28 @ 9:28 PM EDT

#EdChatME I love using blogs as a meaningful, deep form of assessment: self, peer & audience reflection #PBL #medialiteracy

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 9:28 PM EDT

#NEXTSTEPS I just need to carve out the time to blog more! If I want Ss to make it a priority, I def should as well! #edchatme

MaineSchoolTech - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:28 PM EDT

#NEXTSTEPS @BoomshakaKozaka & I will utilize our existing @CEMS_IDEALab blog to create a common point for reflection/documentation #edchatme

eringobragh29 Mar 28 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@audreyoclair This. Is. Amazing. #professionalgoals #edchatme

mwing19 Mar 28 @ 9:29 PM EDT

Q6: Love the idea of giving quieter Ss a voice and tech friendly Ss the opportunity to express ideas their way #EdChatMe

MisterCMaine - Moderator Mar 28 @ 9:29 PM EDT

#NEXTSTEPS Honestly, I have no clue. Too many good ideas. Would love to have my Ss teach other Ss via GHO. #EdChatME

cinehead Mar 28 @ 9:29 PM EDT

#EdChatME @DrMerriRajaniem Blogging is as easy as tweeting 140 characters! No time like the present to just dive in!
