#tntechchat

A1) story too often victim of time. Summer provides reflection time, build a better plan, implement first steps...

#TnTechCHat

#TnTechChat

May 31 @ 8:12 PM EDT
A1: Seeing too much "bashing" lately of everything under the sun re: ed, teachers, Ss. Gotta be the authors of our story
#tntechchat

A1 summer time is when a lot folks travel to conferences and share their successes

Q2 How can sharing your story help staff for the upcoming year?
#tntechchat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:18 PM EDT
A2) Gives the folks coming in an idea of the vision and where you want to go.
#TnTechCHat
MickShuran
May 31 @ 8:18 PM EDT
A2 Enthusiasm, it is contagious...at least I believe so.
#tntechchat
1DanLawson
May 31 @ 8:19 PM EDT
A2) the most compelling, powerful stories are F2F. Love to effectively channel that stream! Make minimal expectation positive
#TnTechCHat
ShanaVWhite
May 31 @ 8:20 PM EDT
A2: Can spark their fire again. Give them new life. Also great to hear experiences from a peer.
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:20 PM EDT
A2 telling your story can help other teachers know who is an expert in something to go for help
#tntechchat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:20 PM EDT
Yes, I love meeting with the new crop and feeding them lunch as I tell the school's story.

#tntechchat

A2b) Napoleon opined himself to be a "dealer of hope" as leaders we MUST deal Hope as "opening hand."

Q3 what tools do you to share your story?
#tntechchat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:23 PM EDT
@nathan_stevens
@1DanLawson
I always take them out to a local restaurant even if they are local.
#TnTechChat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:24 PM EDT
@Gregbagby
@1DanLawson
I thought you would be grilling for them
#tntechchat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:25 PM EDT
A3: Face to face cheering. With occasional funky dance moves. Oh and twitter
#tntechchat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:25 PM EDT
A3) I usually use quotes " We Can whenever... successfully educate all.."
#TnTechChat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:26 PM EDT
@nathan_stevens
@1DanLawson
I have done that in the past. May do it again. :-)
#TnTechChat

@EdTechDash
dance move. Must see a
@periscopeco
of these moves
#tntechchat
ShanaVWhite
May 31 @ 8:27 PM EDT
A3: Face to Face mostly. Sharing with admin directly as well. Easier to share when what I learned will impact school goals
#tntechchat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:27 PM EDT
@nathan_stevens
@periscopeco
Summer dance party, perhaps. The latest in PD.
#tntechchat

@ShanaVWhite
I ALWAYS love Shana's answers
#tntechchat
1DanLawson
May 31 @ 8:29 PM EDT
A3) social media to "touch" many as possible. Civic groups F2F, but nothing more powerful than kind words to parent re: child
#tntechchat
ShanaVWhite
May 31 @ 8:30 PM EDT
@nathan_stevens

I'm interested in hearing different takes on SM and student privacy
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:32 PM EDT
Q4 how can we encourage other's to tell their story? Some teachers do not realize the awesomeness they create.
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:34 PM EDT
@EdTechDash
my students are college level and I tell them at the start of the semester
#modeling
#tntechchat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:34 PM EDT
A4: Some Ts are exhausted by their own awesomeness. I try to help tell their story for them with shout outs in mtgs, group email
#tntechchat
MickShuran
May 31 @ 8:34 PM EDT
No such thing lol

A4: Take a back seat sometimes. Techy people sometimes act like sage on the stage with other Ts. Empower and encourage them
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:34 PM EDT
@EdTechDash
when I go to schools, I ask as activity begins who I can photograph and share
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:35 PM EDT
@EdTechDash
I keep my phone in my hand while in the room to remind me to share
#tntechchat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:35 PM EDT
@MickShuran
If they put it out there, then sure. But are we making that decision? Not saying no, just a convo starter.
#tntechchat
1DanLawson
May 31 @ 8:35 PM EDT
A4) truly grossly underutilized. Too many just see their work as the norm. Fail to realize the magnificence of their norm!
#TnTechChat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:36 PM EDT
@nathan_stevens
That's awesome. HigherEd = adults. HS, I feel odd without parent consent.
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:36 PM EDT
@EdTechDash
@MickShuran
I tell student that they are doing something awesome and I need to share their work
#tntechchat
1DanLawson
May 31 @ 8:37 PM EDT
A4b) as we have enhanced SM presence, T's are more inclined to extol neighbor than self. Shift the culture to empower all.
#TnTechChat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:37 PM EDT
@ShanaVWhite
Humility is a virtue. Glad to hear someone say it.
#tntechchat
Gregbagby
May 31 @ 8:37 PM EDT
A4) Let them offer a chance for teacher voice throughout the year. The power of SV and TV are rarely accessed.
#TnTechChat
EdTechDash
May 31 @ 8:37 PM EDT
RT Q4 pls
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:38 PM EDT
@EdTechDash
do like my sons' school system, the form they send out is to not be photographed. If not return, kids are fair game
#tntechchat
nathan_stevens
May 31 @ 8:38 PM EDT
Rt of Q4 how can we encourage other's to tell their story? Some teachers do not realize the awesomeness they create.
#tntechchat

Not cut and dry at my sch. A form home is gone with the wind.
