#miched Archive

The #michED chat is a grassroots effort dedicated to giving teachers, students, and parents across Michigan a bigger voice in the conversation about education in our state. We welcome all voices through a variety of projects, media, and social networking. We’re trying to address educational issues through apolitical conversation, spreading ideas and stories of success from Michigan classrooms across the state, and helping teachers and students regain the courage to connect and demonstrate that schools in Michigan are creating amazing opportunities for learning. We want the face and voice of education in Michigan to be a mural of shared experiences and positive examples of connected learning.

  • KellyHincks1 Feb 6 @ 8:14 PM EST

    In reply to @KellyHincks1
  • GeorgeHistory Feb 6 @ 8:15 PM EST
    I understand that, but Googling isn't problem solving, it isn't creating, it isn't immersing. Similar to math classes and just providing an answer without being able to explain the process to determining it. #miched

  • GailDesler Feb 6 @ 8:15 PM EST
    So important for #DigCit to start with primary students. #michED

    It's so important to teach students when the right time for technology is. It's great to use when it's helpful, but sometimes the answer is to do it instead of look it up! #miched

    A2 I believe that nobody should "own" the lessons. In a school you should be working as a collaborative team when and where to incorporate it into the classroom/lessons. #MichEd
  • Dfarley31 Feb 6 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A2 It is an open conversation right now. At the elementary level, we don’t yet have a plan, but a serious need. So answer is, “in the works.” #miched Planning a series of parent nights to get started on social media

  • GailDesler Feb 6 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A2: We are hoping to see a shift in our district from #DigCit lessons being taught as stand alone lessons during advisory period or computer lab time to a more integrated approach. We are also reaching out to see if/how other districts evaluate #digcit on report cards. #michED
  • GeorgeHistory Feb 6 @ 8:16 PM EST
    YES! Across the board teachers should all be engaged in this process. #miched
    In reply to @MsTedora
  • SIGLIB_MACUL Feb 6 @ 8:17 PM EST
    Digital Citizenship has many components: including positive digital footprint, learning how to communicate online, internet safety, information literacy including creative credit and copyright. I want students to have knowledge in all of these #digcit #miched
    In reply to @DrKMattson
  • tramperk Feb 6 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2: In my experience, #DigCit typically lands in the hands of the technology teacher or library media specialist. Starting to see some teachers start to incorporate it into their curriculum. Look forward to when that is standard. #miched

    Hi! I'm Amy Hermon, elementary librarian and host of School Librarians United Podcast #MichEd
  • MsDEastman Feb 6 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: All teachers should incorporate some type of technology in their classroom. I run into many adults who don't know how to use different Microsoft programs and that blows my mind. I believe technology is a core part of their education especially in todays society. #MichEd
  • msashburn Feb 6 @ 8:18 PM EST

    Q3 coming up! #MichEd #DigCit
  • GeorgeHistory Feb 6 @ 8:19 PM EST
    I understand the home repair example, but even then I have someone with experience check my work, like a teacher to a student. Additionally, Googling is starting to replace important skills that require no content knowledge: reading, processing, and creating. #miched

  • AsharaDet Feb 6 @ 8:19 PM EST

    In reply to @DrKMattson
  • KellyHincks1 Feb 6 @ 8:19 PM EST
    A2: Honestly, I do not really think it has ever been explicity said who "owns" them. Clearly, this is something that has to be discussed moving forward. I can say that as a library department we have discussed how we are teaching them. #digcit #miched

    Q3. A lot of digital citizenship curriculum focus on personal behaviors over skill development. What are some of the skills digital citizens need to be successful in global communities? How are you helping students gain those skills? #MichEd #DigCit
  • GailDesler Feb 6 @ 8:21 PM EST
    A3: Using technology to take student voices beyond the classroom and zip code is a priority. Today thru tools like blogging, videoconferencing, VoiceThreading, etc., Ss can effectively read, write and communicate with authentic audiences on topics they care about. #michED #DigCit

    A2: Positive role modeling of Digital Citizenship should be “owned” by everyone in the school and the responsibility for instruction should be shared when possible. #DigCit #MichEd
  • jlbowling Feb 6 @ 8:22 PM EST
    A2: Media specialists lead this work in their schools, but all educators need to "own" the #DigCit lessons. In essence, we are teaching our students how to be good citizens with or without technology. #MichEd

  • KellyHincks1 Feb 6 @ 8:23 PM EST
    I would agree with you that it should be integrated and part of everyone's curriculum! However, I do think someone usually has to start talking about the importance and how/what should be taught in order for everyone to begin to incorporate it. #miched #digcit
    In reply to @MsTedora
  • acaciasmith13 Feb 6 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A3: I think that digital citizens need to know how to live the same life online that they live offline. It's super important for people to be the same people the same ways. If they have one identity online and another irl, then who are they really? It's super important! #miched
    In reply to @DrKMattson
  • SIGLIB_MACUL Feb 6 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A3: Ss need to see what responsible online communication looks like. We can give them practice by setting up online classroom communities #miched #digcit
  • DrKMattson Feb 6 @ 8:23 PM EST
    This is a HUGE problem! How do we teach kids what "being nice" means? They will encounter people they disagree with, so how do we model respectful discourse both on and offline? #DigCit #MichEd
    • misshun06017480 Feb 6 @ 8:21 PM EST
      I’ve had the same experience as a student, mainly the library media specialist took care of #DigCit . However, they never went beyond “being nice and being safe” online. Many websites and topics were blocked and avoided instead of taught how to deal with them responsibly.
      In reply to @tramperk
  • MsTedora Feb 6 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A3 Being able to understand different cultures and communication styles. Going over these topics over time I hope to introduce new skills to them. #MichEd

    That's a good question! I'm a firm believer in being the same person (and saying the same things) no matter where I am. So if I wouldn't say/do it in real life, I personally won't say/do it online. I hope to model that for my students. #miched

  • SIGLIB_MACUL Feb 6 @ 8:28 PM EST

  • MsDEastman Feb 6 @ 8:29 PM EST

  • educatorabailey Feb 6 @ 8:55 PM EST
    A7: I love using online quizzes such as Quizziz for pre and post tests! Simply playing music during work time for a lesson (for example, playing songs by Michigan artists when students are doing a project about Michigan economics/civics) really makes it immersive. #miched

    A5) Sometimes we just get so engaged in what is going on from the screen we miss out on things. Balance: spending enough time off screen than on. Achieving that healthy balance would be to make others more aware of how much screen time they really are using. #MichEd

    A6) In my future classroom, I would love to be able to make sure that my students know how much is too much screen time. I could improve my content knowledge by looking up different ways to incorporate it into my classroom. Asking other educators is another helpful tool! #MichEd

    A5 I think it is important to balance time on screen and off. I think to encourage a balance we should do hybrid instruction. Only allow technology at times where it is beneficial to the learning. #MichEd
