A5 I want to set up a badging system but have not made the time for that yet. Who has a quick beginners guide? #TechTalkGA

JanieShiflett May 8 @ 9:30 PM EDT

A5: Based on my Ss reaction badges are great motivators. They play into the competitive nature many of us have. #techtalkga

ApraRalli May 8 @ 9:30 PM EDT

#TechTalkGA can be effectively used but only if it's across the board and everyone believes in what they are doing

A5: I am interested and want to learn more about badges, but how does it motivate those who are not competitive? #TechTalkGA

maherley - Moderator May 8 @ 9:31 PM EDT

Thank you guys SO MUCH for coming out. If you have ideas for future topics you'd like to see, please tweet them! #techtalkga

A5: I concur. MUST be done properly to "carry weight" & mean something. #TECHTalkGA

In reply to @JFarm, @maherley

GaDOE_McPherson May 8 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A5: Question of my own: Have any of you personally or professionally found value yourself in badges, etc? #TechTalkGA

jklcassidy May 8 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A5: when attached to tangible items- like 5 badges= duty free day or jeans pass #TechTalkGA

Mrs_Wardlaw May 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

Same. I'm super competitive, but badges don't do much for me. I think it's all about what works best for your classroom/district.#TECHtalkGA

Thanks to @itsleegreen I tried SAMR to INXS and spoiler alert. It failed miserably. Thanks Lee I was mystified. #TechTalkGA

iamryanwhite May 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

We debuted our gamified and badging PL, but we had to hide the challenges until next year due to immediate principal competition #TechTalkGA

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

That's great to focus and help everyone to understand the "why". #TECHtalkGA

  Q3: What does #blendedlearning look like? What SHOULD it look like? #TECHtalkGA

maherley - Moderator May 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

That's funny! I'd love to hear your challenges! #techtalkga

BrysonBridget May 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

It all comes back to info & traing. I find my advice/ideas on Twitter - many Ts aren't going to look, & miss the needed advice #TechTalkGA

In reply to @MmeBurgess

jarowell May 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

Trés cool, @JFarm #TechTalkGA

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Looking forward to filling up the map! https://t.co/Y4rusp6KtN #TECHtalkGA

ClintWinter May 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

#techtalkga I think that it is imperative to understand the why. When we found how powerful collaboration and instant feedback could be

In reply to @JFarm, @MmeBurgess

jklcassidy May 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4: problem based seems to fit better with the Science GSE but I think both types have functions in student driven classroom #TechTalkGA

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:34 PM EDT

I think there are some good things being done with badges and gamification. Apple Teacher, MIE, Google Cert., ambassador progs #TECHtalkGA

iamkenyamonique May 8 @ 9:35 PM EDT

Yes! I ❤️ my #MSFTEDU badges. It just reminds me of the classes I have taken. #TechTalkGA

My friend @lwilban, let's talk! You have someone in your backpocket who thoroughly researched this for her doctorate. 😉 #TechTalkGA

lwilban May 8 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A5: I am interested and want to learn more about badges, but how does it motivate those who are not competitive? #TechTalkGA

lwjoneslp May 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A5 : Micro creds/badges are a good idea b/c offers immediate feedback/reinforcement for learning; badges rock! #TechTalkGA

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Make sure you put your location and role so you can be added to the map! https://t.co/Y4rusp6KtN #TECHtalkGA

BrysonBridget May 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A5: I don't know enough about them - I just need accessibility to tech in my c'rm. My Ss need Devices-then let's talk @ badges #TechTalkGA

ApraRalli May 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

#techtalkga thank you just loved the chat...I'll be punctual next time

WCSTechDiva May 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Ooh, excited about putting Whitfield on the #TECHtalkGA map :)

ehlmstech May 8 @ 9:37 PM EDT

I do value my #GoogleEDU badges. #TechtalkGA

In reply to @GaDOE_McPherson

ClintWinter May 8 @ 9:37 PM EDT

#TechTalkGA the focus for blended learning, PBL, etc. . I think has to be on how this is improving instruction

ClintWinter May 8 @ 9:38 PM EDT

#TechTalkGA For example, this might be my first year using Google Classroom. How would that be improving instruction? Passing out a pdf?

Are you referring to our intro posts? #TECHtalkGA

In reply to @JFarm

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:39 PM EDT

Twitter has been, BY FAR, my most helpful and powerful PL tool. Only thing that beats it is F2F with awesome #techtalkga crowd!

Oh, geez, @maherley! Don't get me started! As a long-time #GBL researcher & practitioner, I can't answer this is just 1 tweet!! #techtalkga

maherley - Moderator May 8 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Q5: How do you feel about micro-credentials or badges? How can you use them in your classroom or PL? Should you? #TECHtalkGA

MmeBurgess - Moderator May 8 @ 9:40 PM EDT

For sure! Admin who don't understand tech will kill it... :( #TECHtalkGA

In reply to @maherley

ClintWinter May 8 @ 9:41 PM EDT

#Techtalkga because I can totally pushout a pdf in Google Classroom.OR am I using it to create diverse learning environments to reach ss

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Yes.. that is what I will use to update our map! Thank you and glad you could join us. #techtalkga

In reply to @Dr_MPrince

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Thank you! Glad we have some South GA representation! #TECHtalkGA

In reply to @jarowell

maherley - Moderator May 8 @ 9:42 PM EDT

For sure - not the tech itself that's important, it's what we are asking Ss to do with it #techtalkga

The *WHY* is so vitally important!! #TECHtalkGA

ClintWinter May 8 @ 9:28 PM EDT

#techtalkga I think that it really hammers home WHY we are doing this. Why am I taking a virtual tour? Why are my students collaborating . .

maherley - Moderator May 8 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@ClintWinter @JFarm I vote for the Deliverance kid. Is that our end, Clint? #TechTalkGA

JFarm - Moderator May 8 @ 9:48 PM EDT

We might be better off with INXS and Duran Duran duels! Maybe some Tears for Fears! LOL #TECHtalkGA

In reply to @ClintWinter

lwjoneslp May 8 @ 9:48 PM EDT

agreed. Alice Keeler; spreadsheet queen has some badge templates to use with Ss/Ts check- pretty cool! #TechTalkGA

Our whole district decided to adopt SAMR, and that buy-in from the district office outward was key. #TECHtalkGA
