Happening now @E_Sheninger talks with #TCT18 attendees about research-based methods for learning transformation & lessons learned from his diverse experiences @andrewmarotta21
Disruption of iconic norms in society. This disruption and change is happening. Look at the present in your schools. Be the change! Enjoying this keynote from @E_Sheninger . #tct18
#TCT18@RiderUniversity is filled with so many #eduheroes. Besides connecting with my PLN f2f many I am meeting for the first time. My knowledge about the world is being blown away by @E_Sheninger!
Make sure you’re not pushing the wrong C’s in your classroom: conformity, compliance and control. Instead encourage creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration! #TCT18
Leadership, Sustainability, & Technology are the foundational elements to keep getting our Ss ready for the real world and enhancing these 21st century classrooms @E_Sheninger#TCT18 thriving on this keynote speech! @msandreini
“You can’t just want change. You need to lead and be the change.” @E_Sheninger kicking off #TCT18 at @RiderUniversity - a great start to what’s sure to be a great day of transforming teaching and learning! #LT8Keys

2 questions we need to ask students- Can you tell me why you are learning what you are learning? Can you tell me how you will use it outside of school? Great keynote with Eric Sheninger #tct18

Teach students to ask the right questions not provide the right answers. Great insight from Erno Rubik, creator of the Rubik’s cube
https://t.co/nRy1bzTHH7@E_Sheninger#TCT18
“Questions are more important than the answers.” -Erno Rubik
Help kids discover passions. Help transform education. It is up to all of us to work together.
Great food for thought from @E_Sheninger at #TCT18
@E_Sheninger. “We must not teach Ss answers. We must teach them how to ask relevant questions.” We must cultivate in the hearts of our kids, a deep desire to make sense of their world. To ask questions that drive them to find answers. #TCT18
Classroom design (based on over ten studies) impacts learning by over 25%. "We need to work to create the conditions in which students want to learn." #TCT18
Research indicates classroom design can impact learning by 25%. Although not just a snazzy Pinterest design without a change in pedagogy #TCT18@E_Sheninger@EvolvingEd
Just learning about the “Cemetery Effect” from @E_Sheninger. Didn’t realize that a large number of American classrooms have similarities to a cemetery. #TCT18
#TCT18 Still a great example. How would you answer this? One 4th grader answered, not good. The fish is moving away from hook, and there is no bait. #makeitreal
Path, place and pace...do your kids have control of their learning? (Blended Learning) @E_Sheninger
Put the focus back on the kids. Do what it takes to make magic for students.
#TCT18#bekindEDU#tlap#kidsdeserveit#LeadLAP
We should all be working together...Kids need Ts to be present...Ts want admin to be present...Admin wants Central Admin to be present and Supt should compel the school board to be present #TCT18
@E_Sheninger If you can’t find 15 Minutes a day to learn, you’re just making excuses. If growing professionally matters to you, you’ll find the time to get better for kids. #TCT18
It was great seeing @JenWilliamsEdu again! It has been a couple of year. Glad to see that she is still doing so many great things in #education. #TCT18
Thank you @E_Sheninger for reminding us all that tech is great, what you do with it is awesome, but it's really about relationships with our kids #TCT18
So many important ideas shared by @E_Sheninger today. One of my favorite quotes..”If there are no relationships, no real learning actually occurs.” #TCT18@thomascmurray
I FINALLY got to meet @sdtitmas today at #TCT18!! This guy was my 1st #globalcollaboration last year, we co-wrote a blog post on #KidsDeserveIt, he introduced me to @Flipgrid, but more importantly he’s become such a great friend! It’s honor to finally connect in person!
#TCT18 session one kicks off soon! Stop by my Twitter session at 10:15am in room 210. Learn how to find and connect with colleagues and innovators in the field, and locate free and relevant resources to bring back to your own setting...Hope you can join!
At Session 1: Leadership Is Not Just A Title by @JayBilly2 and @nbartley6 Already digging the vibe in the room. Raffles for Books, Music and Handshakes😃#TCT18
Thank you @JayBilly2 for your honesty about giving yourself permission to have fun with kids and be a better principal. It's OK to loosen up the tie! #TCT18#LeadLAP
Wrote this about my thesis and makerspace...and it was published this week! Very timely validation from @E_Sheninger's keynote. #TCT18

As leaders (that’s any educator) we should always looks for ways to say yes, but we must know when to say no. Over stretching yourself doesn’t allow you to be your best for what is most essential. #leadlap#tct18
L.E.A.D. Like a PIRATE! Leverage Systems, Elevate the Impact, Activate a Team, Delete, Delete, Delete! Immerse yourselves in your school & kids. Follow a S around all day- put yourself in his/her shoes! #TCT18@nbartley6@JayBilly2@EvolvingEd
Are you totally IN? Are you immersed in your class or school? Shadow a student, see school with their eyes.
Great PIRATE session with @JayBilly2 and @nbartley6#TCT18#LeadLAP#tlap
#leadlap. Trust is essential in building a highly functional culture. Building trust through relationships accelerates whatever you are attempting to do in your building. #tct18
Absolutely blown away by the amazing things @jwestbrooknm is doing with her English Ss...her presentation “The Importance of Being Human in a High Tech Classroom” has inspired me greatly! #TCT18https://t.co/Js5G7HZOCs
Thx to @Mr_Dreher for sharing how he runs his video game club at #TCT18 ... Looking forward to connecting with elementary PLC friend @EdTechInHeels to see how to implement this K-5, and possibly with an autism group.

As I left an invigorating #LeadLAP session hosted by @JayBilly2 & @nbartley6, where we just finished choral singing an original ukulele song by Nili & a bewildered person in the hall asked me "What was going on IN there?" - The PIRATE crew set sail! Awesome stuff today. #TCT18

Loving all of the options for #VR and #AR in the classroom that I’m learning about in room 306 at #TCT18! Any #NJed pros using #VirtualReality in school?!
Had the pleasure of connecting with my good friend @JayBilly2, meeting @nbartley6 f2f for first time and having a virtual f2f convo with @BethHouf. The people and experience at #TCT18 is out of the world!
This is crazy ... ❤️ the engagement of XR (VR, MR, AR). Our Ss will be blown away, running to come to school for this! Thx @mr_isaacs for presenting and inspiring @ #TCT18 & sharing the great ways @Garlicsuter uses it. This is awesome!

Super, SUPER stoked for this session at #TCT18 - this is a fairly new passion for me, so I’m lucky to learn from the best of the best - @JenWilliamsEdu 🎉 #TeachSDGs
Using Google Tools to Promote UDL Learning Environments--is being given by @mmatp, and we went to high school together! It's a small world in education! #TCT18
A1: Disadvantages to telling your district story... none so many great things happen across our schools and it’s important to share those experiences with the community #whygomo#TCT18
A1: Things can be misinterpreted or misunderstood when communicated digitally; it’s l left up to each person’s interpretation of tone & voice #WhyGomo#tct18
We always talk about the importance of Ss choice in books/topics to make their learning interesting...PD should give educators choice TOO! Choice about "what and how we learn"@RACzyz This is resonating with me right now, what do you think? @mhayes611@msandreini#TCT18#LTPS

2 bring backs from @RACzyz. Mystery Staff Hangout and QR Code Scavenger Hunt. Will work with admin to implement for 18-19 faculty meetings. #TCT18#4OCF What are your bring backs?
Find something that is worth sharing with colleagues #4OCF@RACzyz Giving yourself an opportunity to propel your own professional learning and read/seek out a different perspective and then stimulate a discussion about it #TCT18
Find your ROGUEish Friends! love this idea! Send out an article on Monday & have a Fight Club on Friday! ROGUE stands for Relevant Organized Group of Underground Educators!!! #TCT18@EvolvingEd
Is there time this week that you can dedicate to professional learning ? This should not even be a question. There are endless opportunities - Twitter, professional reading, books, articles, blogs, podcasts, chats and real time talk @4OClockFaculty@RACzyz#TCT18
Amazing session. LOVE all of the take aways we can take right back to our colleagues (and ourselves) -@RACzyz 's creativity and ideas continue to inspire me daily. Thank you Rich! #4OCF#tct18
A4: Collaboratively utilize various social media platforms to showcase our district/school events and all the great things that happen at Valley! #WhyGomo#TCT18
Once you have a follower you have created a movement #4OCF@RACzyz Let's get more followers in our schools to help our leaders create change and momentum to help our Ss and be the best Ts we can be! #TCT18
Might be my favorite new slide. Yes it’s about the leader but it’s also about the first one who has the courage to follow. Thank you @RACzyz!! #4OCF#leadlap#leadlapmass#tct18
My mind is legit blown! lol #TCT18 Thank you for all the amazing new knowledge @TheLearningLead! Can't wait to create fun stuff and send it to @kmsusca

I really ❤️ this picture! It’s @E_Sheninger giving a big ol’ shoutout to @LFlemingEDU in his keynote at #TCT18 . The arrow is pointing to the very humble & sweet Laura, who seemed so touched that he showcased the AMAZING things she does at New Milford HS.
Hey @MuziLearningLab , I just thought you’d want to know that during THIS awesome presentation by @JayBilly2 at #TCT18 , he gave you at least 3 shoutouts!!! (I may have lost count after that.) 🏆
I always feel pretty special when I get to see @mgcjusa - I think he has a wonderful talent for making everyone feel that way! Thanks so much for everything today, Mike! 😊 #TCT18
