EGH617 May 5 @ 9:07 PM EDT

completely. @crottymark and that there can be an immediate purpose or application, right? #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:07 PM EDT

crottymark May 5 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1 Effective change agents usually possess amazing "soft skills" that serve people well everywhere. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:08 PM EDT

@EGH617 Indeed. And that immediate whets appetite for more. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:08 PM EDT

#isedchat we have a core class dedicated to Ss becoming change agents of social justice @HFA_IS10

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1 It helps students take their learning beyond themselves: that it has value to others. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @HFA_IS10 Whoa. I want more info on this! #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A1) Gets them into the mindset that growth requires change. And making change in society helps them grow. #isedchat https://t.co/V286JsY3G1

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:04 PM EDT

OK, here’s question one: #ISEDchat https://t.co/Zmljng2OSw

crottymark May 5 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@EricGOA Yes, not just a means to a personal end. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@EGH617 All 8th graders are in community for service learning. Work with young, elderly, refugees and the hungry. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:10 PM EDT

Q2 coming up in a minute! #ISEDchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@EGH617 @HFA_IS10 10+ teams across 2 grades working on topics like education disparity, race relations, food insecurity, poverty. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@EricGOA Yes! #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@skeeTX that's great. Is your school schedule a help or hindrance to that? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:13 PM EDT

#isedchat combine #designthinking, empathy and social justice to inform/equip/empower our change agents.

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2 when students choose the path. i.e. here’s what we’ve learned, how can you apply it? #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@EricGOA Currently hindrance but we are changing next year. Need to think bigger and make it happen. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:14 PM EDT

#isedchat A2: moves beyond service learning - all Ss participate and have "clients" in the community and are out in the field w users.

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@EricGOA @skeeTX Our schedule is a hindrance for us at the moment. We do get out more and more each year, though. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Hi all, Brendan Gill, Catlin Gabel in Portland, OR A2 Student-led change gives me a clear window into where they're at #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech sounds like there’s some empathy building at work here #ISEDchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@EricGOA @skeeTX chiming in / we designed a schedule to support being a change agent - it's a core value so was key in design #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2 I love this project from Catalyst Conference: combined personal passions for art, equity, community. https://t.co/pReMZEcC8k #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2: Our environmental club approached me recently about reducing our plastic bottles use. #isedchat https://t.co/90snXMd1Ql

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:12 PM EDT

Question 2 is up! Let’s share some examples. #isedchat https://t.co/ZtFGMCRx14

crottymark May 5 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2 Recall at my previous school, when adults were stalemated, Ss took over final design of new schedule. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@lcarroll94 @skeeTX I hear that a lot. So many logistical questions! What to cut in order to add? #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A2) Moved by a story, my daughter & her classmates helped raise $ for South Sudan. https://t.co/CpvPPBHw6W #isedchat https://t.co/CFxlRxImsA

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@j_bower remind me, is there a product or presentation of this at some point too? #ISEDchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@ckoos1 same! thanks to upper schoolers, no more bottled drinks sold in the cafeteria next year! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@EGH617 yep! Ss (and Ts) are trained and use @LUMAInstitute methodology #isedchat #dtk12chat #designthinking https://t.co/wcghLOvLRq

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@EricGOA @lcarroll94 Ts crossing over, space, contact minutes.....should leap the hurdles and get it done if best for Ss. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Part of challenge to S-led change within schools is too often we dont' let them do. Ss often don't realize power they have. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@crottymark I love the idea of change as a design challenge: start in your own school! #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@EricGOA Yes, actually plan to recruit some kids to help me in just this fashion on some projects. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Any change that ever happened started small. It’s important to remind students of that. Everyone is capable of small. #isedchat @ckoos1

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@crottymark Need to be willing to let go of the steering wheel sometimes. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:20 PM EDT

#isedchat dedicate time to helping others when offering opps to be change agents - our mechanical limb lab Ss. https://t.co/wRfgAjJmsn

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Here comes Q3 #ISEDchat https://t.co/zSzMLRk2f7

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@EGH617 @ckoos1 And if not, are they surplus to requirements??? #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:21 PM EDT

Me too. They presented in chapel, made posters and worked on a video today to educate. #isedchat https://t.co/HuLsh53tAx

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@ckoos1 I like that their sights are set on a community fix, starting small.

crottymark May 5 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@EGH617 @ckoos1 Small steps, yes--but often big ideas. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@crottymark @ckoos1 completely. finding ways to make those big ideas actionable. #ISEDchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:23 PM EDT

#isedchat challenges to building change agents - no experiential/active learning opps, no PBL, antiquated assessment measures..

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A3: closed-mindedness, fear of the unknown, deviating from what's always been done #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A3 Not always a lot of experience with outreach/organizing skills. Time and energy to practice is impt! #isedchat

philosophypaul May 5 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@EGH617 A3 challenges: #ISEDchat Ss working low paying jobs drain energy and concentration that could contribute to activism.

crottymark May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 Tendency to think short term; different view of what education is for; political issues. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 - Students are only just learning how to make a vision become a reality, and what that timeline really looks like #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3) Resistance. Opinion that schools have no business in it. #isedchat https://t.co/mAOXAg4ARV

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Here comes Q3 #ISEDchat https://t.co/zSzMLRk2f7

LRAmes May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 We face a "perception" problem among some students they can indeed be change agents- teachers need to help change this mindset. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

#isedchat it helps to have centralized support to organize partners, clients, field study @educateyinz helps me coordinate @HFAPgh

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 #isedchat when it becomes an add on not baked into the “more important” learning?

everetteach May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

The ways in which the community defines success. #isedchat https://t.co/dtusntp50C

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Here comes Q3 #ISEDchat https://t.co/zSzMLRk2f7

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

When I taught an advocacy course, I was surprised by the reluctance to fully engage outwardly... Some fear of unknown. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@StoryArcade agree - must scaffold experiences and complexity of projects #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 This kind of work can be messy, doesn't look like "school as we know it." #isedchat Scares people!

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3: a sub question might be “and who might help us?” parents? alums? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:26 PM EDT

Help them have small wins, start with self/family and friends before tackling larger challenges #isedchat https://t.co/BtrxXcjVPF

LRAmes May 5 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 We face a "perception" problem among some students they can indeed be change agents- teachers need to help change this mindset. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@StoryArcade completely agree. Deep dives into real-world examples are key. See how the sausage gets made. #isedchat

everetteach May 5 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@crottymark Agreed! #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A3 Very often people don't like change agents! #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech and design thinking helps too! slows down the process, breaks it up into small steps #isedchat

LRAmes May 5 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A3 Who can help us is key - students need mentors & role models for this type of work. Blended spaces help make this possible #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@EGH617 All those in the community: Ts, Ps, alums, community partners, anyone else affiliated/connected to school. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@StoryArcade exactly - as Ss gain comfort and confidence they can manage design methods/process on their own. #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:29 PM EDT

Messy is the best kind of learning. #isedchat https://t.co/yXkoLO7LPJ

crottymark May 5 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 This kind of work can be messy, doesn't look like "school as we know it." #isedchat Scares people!

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@crottymark But remaining stagnant is not an option. #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:29 PM EDT

A3: Many people are resistant to change. They question motives of change agents. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@EGH617 In my GOA music class Ss remarked that Design Thinking showed them the timeline. Ts can employ models like DT #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@skeeTX Certainly not in our school! #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Here comes 4… #ISEDchat https://t.co/fUBdIBtaSX

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

Agreed. We can really redefine who, what, and where a teacher is. #isedchat https://t.co/oaBCFtvGeJ

LRAmes May 5 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A3 Who can help us is key - students need mentors & role models for this type of work. Blended spaces help make this possible #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

anf I already want to add to this q “ and how do we lev. tech to combat those challenges?” #ISEDchat

PegGrafwallner May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@JeremyDBond Talking makes admins nervous! 2 stopped in room this week cause Ss debating w/ passion! #isedchat https://t.co/318aCq6CJf

  A3 This kind of work can be messy, doesn't look like "school as we know it." #isedchat Scares people!

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@ckoos1 That's why we need catalysts to help others get on board. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@EGH617 @EricGOA Could almost be an ad for Global Online Academy! #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A4: social media can be an inexpensive way to get the word out to internal and external groups. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@TeachBowTie “how can we help our students become change agents?” #ISEDchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@crottymark @EGH617 no idea what you're talking about... #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:32 PM EDT

True! #isedchat https://t.co/smNEZvHDw3

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@ckoos1 That's why we need catalysts to help others get on board. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4: anyone use a class twitter account? I’m intrigued by this idea, esp for elem. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4: they're already connected, even if misguided. Potential is there to reach out/collaborate/share/extend to new places #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4 sometimes the experts and mentors and resources you need aren't locally available. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@PegGrafwallner @JeremyDBond Please don't generalize. I'm a head, and I look every day for really active, S-centered classrooms. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@EGH617 I use one. It's a window to my classroom but very few Ps on Twitter it seems. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A4: Tech offers Ss direct access to change advocates and orgs like... @malalafund @hrw @azizansari @LeanInOrg #angelamerkel #isedchat

PegGrafwallner May 5 @ 9:34 PM EDT

Pt taken, but I can only tell you what I see #isedchat https://t.co/q0Jwh8WXj3

@PegGrafwallner @JeremyDBond Please don't generalize. I'm a head, and I look every day for really active, S-centered classrooms. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A4 - Social media, all the way. Buy-in is increasing year after year. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:35 PM EDT

#isedchat technology connects Ss / we are working on a project for this school in Uganda - connect online https://t.co/zbsXVBhMtE

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@EGH617 Ts need to know first so they can direct Ss. Many Ts don't have time or care to. #isedchat

everetteach May 5 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A4: Devices 4 Ss are a social tool. HMW leverage their love of connection & sharing ideas? #isedchat https://t.co/nC3nILUGOt

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Here comes 4… #ISEDchat https://t.co/fUBdIBtaSX

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:35 PM EDT

There are literally apps for student change now: https://t.co/Y7NXRswGUd. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech are you using skype or other video chat service? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@EGH617 yep @HFA_IS10 @HFA_Arts @educateyinz @poescorner @MJKBC04 @robertabrandao @VigilanteWords have used Twitter! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@crottymark @PegGrafwallner @JeremyDBond same! #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@PegGrafwallner Guess I've been fortunate in whom I've worked for and with. Not my experience at all. #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@skeeTX @EGH617 when my daughter's K teacher had one last year it brought more Ps on. This year, neither T or Ps on. I miss it! #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:37 PM EDT

we have been involved with projects with @studentsrebuild each year. works very well for us at the LS level. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:38 PM EDT

Social media connects schools to orgs like @changemakers and @YPowerhouse. Great student networks. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@EGH617 Twitter has been incredible resource for me personally. #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@EGH617 I use one. It's a window to my classroom but very few Ps on Twitter it seems. #isedchat

TeachBowTie May 5 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@skeeTX @EGH617 Twitter is like the world biggest teacher lounge #isedchat

everetteach May 5 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@LRAmes Ts need to HAVE the mindset. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@TeachBowTie @EGH617 Indeed. Can't imagine not using it. I used to teach in Ashland and went to Stonehill. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Tech can also break down those logistics barriers: help re-envision time and place to allow for this work. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A4 blogs, vlogs and process diaries have so much power too #isedchat, love this proj example: https://t.co/UHiLLKt446

Reminder this gen. of parents desire face-to-face. They have on-line contacts, they want real relationships. #isedchat

richard_royal May 5 @ 9:44 PM EDT

Is there any chance those working in education will stop using the word 'leverage' outside the context of Physics? #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A5 We should ask ourselves why we're not asking the students this question (if we're not). #isedchat

richard_royal May 5 @ 9:45 PM EDT

Of course technology is great for students to implement change - the impact of their actions are now so visible #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@EGH617 @skeeTX and... Uh... #isedchat. ;) https://t.co/6tbIXB80uC

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@EGH617 @skeeTX Twitter connects us with renowned people like never before. It should be a classroom goldmine. #inelearn

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:46 PM EDT

A5 - To bring back Q2, what should we be asking our students to bring about student-led change? #isedchat

richard_royal May 5 @ 9:46 PM EDT

I will plug the @ibmyp and @IB_DP as means to encourage social justic and change #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A5: spend much time asking why? Feel as if so much of what used to be done is not as meaningful as what could be if we let it #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@ckoos1 it doesn't get easier. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@richard_royal what's wrong with leverage? #isedchat

ckoos1 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@JeremyDBond Have to be intentional about it. #isedchat

ConsultJodi May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@EGH617 I spoke to a school leader that had a high number of complaints on a lack of communication. They used tons of SM. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@StoryArcade Reviewed S feedback on our conference today. What came through loud and clear? Choice is Boss. #ISEDchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@ConsultJodi I'm a parent and disagree. #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@crottymark there it is. #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@StoryArcade Who do you know who has sparked real change? What can that person teach us? #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:49 PM EDT

@JeremyDBond @EGH617 @skeeTX renowned folks might not reply to just me, but when a classroom of students knocks, you answer! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 5 @ 9:49 PM EDT

#isedchat local non-profits are great resources for partnership. Think of then as clients for Ss projects.

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:49 PM EDT

A5 the best resources for advocacy are human: who can put a face on this work for students? Who can build empathy? #isedchat

JeremyDBond May 5 @ 9:49 PM EDT

@ConsultJodi @EGH617 and are those parents on the platforms the school was using? #isedchat

LRAmes May 5 @ 9:49 PM EDT

A5: The speaker for our Cat Conf represented @ypowerhouse, a student empowerment group. Great resource and inspiring model #isedchat

ConsultJodi May 5 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@skeeTX I should have said 35 and younger need it the most. #isedchat :-)

A5A2: "Do we genuinely care about the problem we're trying 2 solve?" It's ok if the A is no. #isedchat @gregbamford https://t.co/EoADw9ap7Y

A5 - To bring back Q2, what should we be asking our students to bring about student-led change? #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:50 PM EDT

Question for group: we're assuming Ss should become change agents. How would you convince those who say this isn't school's job? #isedchat

@EricGOA Each time we do a community outreach project, I make sure that someone from the org comes to campus to talk to students. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:50 PM EDT

A5: we should not look much further than ourselves if we want Ss to be difference makers. We see them daily! #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Absolutely. @PLACE_PDX does work like that. @HawkENT, too. #isedchat

ConsultJodi May 5 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@JeremyDBond @EGH617 Facebook, twitter, snapchat, website, constant contact, etc. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:51 PM EDT

A5: What if grade levels Ts connected over advocacy projects and asked their Ss? #designthinking #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@EricGOA great question for students to ask (or at least listen to answer!) - recipe for inspiration in the classroom #isedchat

kevinjruth May 5 @ 9:52 PM EDT

Good evening everyone. @EricGOA sorry to join chat so late. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:52 PM EDT

Ok, last Q of the night — this has flown by! #ISEDchat https://t.co/vZF9Rz8Tez

@JoWilliams123 has sparked real change by believing in Ss & letting them lead service project. #isedchat https://t.co/eaYO9DsuoA

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@StoryArcade Who do you know who has sparked real change? What can that person teach us? #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@crottymark our job is to prepare the Ss for an ever changing world capable of running them over if not prepared to make impact. #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@kevinjruth @EricGOA Isn't it more like good morning for you? And early at that? #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:53 PM EDT

@kevinjruth or is it terribly early where you are? Welcome! This is @EGH617's show: definitely worth joining! #isedchat

A6: Going to talk to @swladis about #geniushour and how students tackled problems at her school. #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Np. Keep us posted here #isedchat or tag @GOAlearning as you move forward with ideas! Let’s stay networked on these ideas.

@crottymark @EricGOA Looks like good discussion! Insomnia at 02:54 in London. #isedchat

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A6: keep looking for ways to improve myself, my Ss, my colleagues, our community. Encourage and support, & ask WHY NOT????? #isedchat

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:56 PM EDT

A6 Application is how learning sticks. Relevance is how students engage. Working for change covers both. #isedchat https://t.co/uF1i3DbNxa

A6: Find others who aren't scared of this conv..your tribe. They'll remind u of how meaningful it can be. #isedchat https://t.co/SIF43xh4zV

Ok, last Q of the night — this has flown by! #ISEDchat https://t.co/vZF9Rz8Tez

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:57 PM EDT

A6 If we’re spending time teaching - it should be applicable. Getting students to identify how is the key. #isedchat.

skeeTX May 5 @ 9:57 PM EDT

Great chat, all! Thx! #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:57 PM EDT

A6 - focus on inviting folks/orgs to class, in person or skype. I can challenge Ss to choose allies to make change they want #isedchat

richard_royal May 5 @ 9:57 PM EDT

@everetteach @gregbamford - so often our external measures of success (test) run in conflict with authentic problem solving #isedchat

crottymark May 5 @ 9:58 PM EDT

Good night, #isedchat. Strong chat tonight. Thanks for great questions, @EGH617

EricGOA May 5 @ 9:58 PM EDT

Thanks @EGH617! Really enjoyed this. #isedchat

StoryArcade May 5 @ 9:58 PM EDT

@everetteach "find your tribe" is advice a hero of mine recently shared with me! The tribe will remind you :) yes! #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 5 @ 9:59 PM EDT

@crottymark Agreed! Thanks so much for moderating @EGH617! #isedchat

richard_royal May 5 @ 9:59 PM EDT

A6 - take a few enthusiasts for a beer, have a chat, and try and make something happen for the students in a week #isedchat

EGH617 May 5 @ 9:59 PM EDT

Well, that’s a wrap! Thanks so much for joining us - great brainstorm! #isedchat
