    A1: I love https://t.co/qdme0Rc3vE! With a paid subscription you can live caption your screen recordings and edit them after! #PatinsIcam #ATIA19
  • AnnaHoltsclaw Feb 12 @ 8:37 PM EST
    A1: Any mode of video would work, as long as there are captions and instructions for use. I love the Screencastify idea as well! #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:37 PM EST
    A1: I am a huge Swivl Cam fan...you can record yourself...even side by side with a presentation and either watch in real time or upload to the cloud! It is easy and fast! #PatinsIcam
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:38 PM EST
    A1: As a SpEd Teacher, I used to pre-record my lessons with my SmartBoard software and a headset mic tethered to my huge desktop computer...Yes, that was a long time ago! But I could send these videos home and/or ask my sub to simply play them. #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @jconti281
  • MrsAveryRHS Feb 12 @ 8:38 PM EST
    A1: I use the video feature in Canvas, and I imagine you could create lessons on YouTube. #patinsicam
  • kellygrillo Feb 12 @ 8:38 PM EST
    A1:Also screencast-o Matic ....OR simply having my present Ss record me doing something to post to our shared Google Doc;) #patinsicam

  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:39 PM EST
    I learn so much every time I record myself...a lot of what NOT to do! HA HA! It is a great tool for self reflection AND sharing for the greater good! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @JamieWithering2
  • katietaylorIN Feb 12 @ 8:39 PM EST

  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:39 PM EST
    There's also the screen-recording feature built into iOS! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @jconti281
  • jlfahlbush Feb 12 @ 8:39 PM EST
    A1: You could also record using the Clips app for iOS to ramp up the engagement with filters, scenes, and of course, captions! #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:39 PM EST
    Me too, and screen cast-o-matic! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @kellygrillo
  • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    Q2: How can I engage my students using technology? Share an example of how you do it! #PatinsIcam
  • tjoshaughnessy Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    A1 Have only ever used Camtasia and Screencastify. just stated doing some using a hover cam though #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    Excellent point! I hope ALL of the recording tools out there understand the importance of captioning for EVERYONE #PatinsIcam

    Can't wait to see some Swivl Action! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @RachelH872
  • kellygrillo Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    A1: My Ss post me to snap as well and share things w/Ss who have a difficult time getting to school. Having access anywhere/anytime to ed tools is super important or ALL Ss #PatinsIcam
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    A2: Meeting Ss where they are & that’s SOCIAL MEDIA. How about Facebook https://t.co/cLndv1FzpG or Twitter templates for projects? https://t.co/fyRoGyowHn #PatinsIcam
  • ss4122 Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    A1: Camtasia is an option with great editing tools. #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
    I bet you looked like Janet Jackson in rhythm nation... #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @danielgmcnulty, @jconti281
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:41 PM EST
    Absolutely! Why mess with what we know, right? Good ideas! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @MrsAveryRHS
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:41 PM EST
    I don't even know who that is. Must have been a long time ago. #PatinsIcam ;)
    In reply to @RachelH872, @jconti281
  • HeatherATurner Feb 12 @ 8:41 PM EST
    A2: #PatinsIcam @Flipgrid is my favorite way. I also like @PearDeck for interaction.
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:41 PM EST
    Do you use the hover cam with a Chromebook? #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @tjoshaughnessy
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:41 PM EST
    Oh awesome! How much is it? #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @BevSharritt, @jconti281
  • BevSharritt Feb 12 @ 8:42 PM EST
    No cost! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @RachelH872, @jconti281
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:42 PM EST
    A2: I also love the idea of using “fake messaging” to teach how the tone via text can be misinterpreted, etc. It’s a relevant convo to have with ALL Ss & this is a good tool for that https://t.co/fMsXYfr07Q #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:42 PM EST
    What time is it in Ireland? WELCOME Thomas! So glad you made it! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @tjoshaughnessy
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:42 PM EST
    Yes, I love Camtasia...and Snag-It as a slightly lower cost version! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @ss4122
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:42 PM EST
    HAHHAAH It is such a good tool! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @danielgmcnulty

  • HeatherATurner Feb 12 @ 8:43 PM EST
    #PatinsIcam A1: Do not strive for perfection in videos for students. Your mistakes make you real people for your students.

    I will have to school you on who the Jacksons are...you young-un~ #PatinsIcam

  • kellygrillo Feb 12 @ 8:44 PM EST
    A2: I try to use the tools that are truly an extension for their arm and they relate to most. #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:44 PM EST
    Hi! Welcome Heather! Great idea! I love flipgrid too! And you can also caption these now, right? #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @HeatherATurner, @Flipgrid, @PearDeck
  • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:44 PM EST
    Yes! "Imperfect" videos are the thing for 2019! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @HeatherATurner
  • JamieWithering2 Feb 12 @ 8:44 PM EST
    A2: YouTube videos... with captions turned on... Bitmoji of students and myself...borrowing cool tech from @PATINSPROJECT to engage Ss... but im still learning... hence hanging with you experts! 😉😉😉😁😁 #PatinsIcam
    • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:40 PM EST
      Q2: How can I engage my students using technology? Share an example of how you do it! #PatinsIcam
  • AnnaHoltsclaw Feb 12 @ 8:45 PM EST
    Being a teacher who moves around a lot, I dont have much time to engage a lot of Ss with one single tech idea, i love using iPad apps and games for my pullout sessions #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:45 PM EST
    Excellent words of advice! I think it gets easier the more we use these tools! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @HeatherATurner
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:45 PM EST
    A2: Such a HARD question! I can say that Ss will not usually be engaged by tools that are 1. not socially valid and/or 2. don't allow them to demonstrate their understanding. #PatinsIcam
  • HeatherATurner Feb 12 @ 8:45 PM EST
    #PatinsIcam thank you just found this chat tonight on edtech chat. School Librarian in Central New York.

  • MrsAveryRHS Feb 12 @ 8:46 PM EST
    A2: Some of my students lack confidence. It has been helpful to show them video of themselves doing their jobs well. #patinsicam
  • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:46 PM EST
    Q3: What technology will allow students to work together? #PatinsIcam
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:46 PM EST
    Sorry #PatinsIcam folks...I am geeking out with tonight's topic.

    In reply to @ksuding
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:47 PM EST
    A2: ThingLink is a must try if u have not used it yet. Great interactive way to make study guides as well https://t.co/TpLEd71hif #PatinsIcam
  • NWingate5 Feb 12 @ 8:47 PM EST
    A3: Google anything (slides, docs, forms, sheets) #PatinsIcam
  • HeatherATurner Feb 12 @ 8:47 PM EST
    #PatinsIcam A3: WeVideo has some great interaction. But I tend to go back to Google products as we are a Gsuite district. Taking those items the student know and use them in new ways. Then they are not trying to learn a new skill and tool at the same time.

    Welcome! Ours is only 1/2 an hour, but it is every Tuesday! Glad you are here! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @HeatherATurner
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A2: Have students take control of their goals & write a letter to themselves in the future https://t.co/7tBXSSMvXf #PatinsIcam
  • AnnaHoltsclaw Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A3: anything Google related because there is a messaging area that allows students to discuss in class and out of class, also comes in handy for DHH kiddos who use Sign Lang As a way to communicate! #PatinsIcam
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST

    In reply to @ksuding, @wakelet
  • ss4122 Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A3: Google Docs is an excellent way for students to work on a document together and they can use built in accessibility tools such as Voice Typing. #PatinsIcam
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A3: Google Docs or interactive online whiteboards such as AWW https://t.co/cueFafxl5v All FREE #PatinsIcam
  • tjoshaughnessy Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A3 Office365 online has some really cool sharing features - we push that with our students a lot as they all have access to it #patinsicam
    In reply to @jconti281
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A3: Twitter is certainly a free tool that can allow Ss and Ts to extend the learning experience outside of time and physical constraints. #PatinsIcam
  • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:50 PM EST
    uhh doing this tonight!! I handwrite a new letter to myself to read every 10 years. #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @ksuding
  • jlfahlbush Feb 12 @ 8:50 PM EST
    A3: I feel like most tech is set up for collaboration and the best part is the conversation can continue after the school day ends - Padlet, Lino, Flipgrid, shared docs & slides, Twitter #PatinsIcam
  • ksuding Feb 12 @ 8:50 PM EST
    Absolutely and can be set up for private just for the classroom #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @danielgmcnulty
  • jconti281 Feb 12 @ 8:50 PM EST
    Q4: What tech is out there to connect to parents easily? #PatinsIcam
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:50 PM EST
    ...AND I think the best conversations typically happen once Ss have had some additional time to process and filter. #PatinsIcam

  • kellygrillo Feb 12 @ 8:51 PM EST
    A4: Twitter of course! And things like @remind but truly I have my parents on text...set up a google phone number if you don’t want folks to have your digits BUT mine is out there, I use true caller app so kids don’t prank call me! Lol #PatinsIcam
  • danielgmcnulty Feb 12 @ 8:51 PM EST
    Ah yes! Good point, do you have a resource showing how this is done? #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @ksuding

    I love REMIND!!! it's a great way to get ahold of parents, you can message back and forth without exchanging numbers!!#PatinsIcam

  • HeatherATurner Feb 12 @ 8:52 PM EST
    #PatinsIcam A4: Going where the parents are...Facebook has become a great conduit. Instagram for students. Getting the message out is challenging with so much coming at us and them.
    In reply to @jconti281
  • RachelH872 Feb 12 @ 8:52 PM EST
    Absolutely! So many times we tend to "pile on" the tools...sometimes the familiar and tried and true tools are the best! #PatinsIcam
    In reply to @HeatherATurner, @jconti281
  • JamieWithering2 Feb 12 @ 8:52 PM EST
    A3: Just saw this scrolling through twitter... Google has so many awesome tools for Ts and Ss. #PatinsIcam

  • AnnaHoltsclaw Feb 12 @ 8:53 PM EST
    A4: I love using REMIND! it's a great way to get ahold of parents! You can message just like texting but without sharing phone numbers! It can be a group message or individual! #PatinsIcam
  • MrsAveryRHS Feb 12 @ 8:53 PM EST

    A4: Remind https://t.co/K7ierCt708 , Google forms shared via spreadsheet #PatinsIcam
  • BevSharritt Feb 12 @ 8:54 PM EST
    a4: video messaging like with Voxer or Marco Polo or just sending via text provide a way for us to model things for parents. #PatinsIcam

    RIGHT! Is the goal to learn a new tool, to acquire a new feature, or to simply disseminate info? Each have their place. #PatinsIcam

    A4: ClassDojo for regular communication. The Microsoft Translator app would be great for communication w/ parents that don't speak your native language! #PatinsIcam

    Good call. Loved ClassDojo when I had traditional scheduled classes. #PatinsIcam

    Agreed. I wish my brain could process info quickly enough to respond right away, but that just isn't possible for most of us if we are truly listening to what's being said #PatinsIcam

    A5: #PatinsIcam Google Forms is really my go to. Students know it and you can do so much more with it each day. The ability to sort answers. But integrated assessments @PearDeck is the way to go. Realtime feedback quickly and easily.

    A5: I used to use interactive whiteboard recording feature to capture student work as it happened. I also love https://t.co/wlzoO5b1gD and https://t.co/hRELQszb5y, utilizing the devices that Ss already have in their pockets and are connected to! #PatinsIcam

    A5: I normally do a checklist on my iPad and run through it in the class. I do a lot of observations and goal checking! I also use apps that track progress, ex: math app I use shows % correct for math facts #PatinsIcam

    #PatinsIcam I have found the older ones hate flipgrid. It is bizarre..they spend hours on Instagram stories.
