Banning most things misses the point. Cell phones and other mobile technology should be integrated, not made primary but used well and carefully. #criticalmedialiteracynow#digcit
There is definitely the potential for a disconnect with your behaviors when you do not see or interact with a real person - but that does not have to be the case #digcit education is important for all ages! #edtech207
A2- Part of starting in my position after 20 years as a MS classroom T was to do a needs assessment of current practice and curriculum- #digcit was a need across K-12... only happening in isolated pockets, now starting to expand and put in scope and sequence. LMS FTW! #edtech207
In fourth grade, one of the things I use for teaching #digcit is peer editing of Google Docs. We have a whole lesson on how to critique work in a constructive way that is respectful and kind. #edtech207
