I can't participate in #scitlap#122edchat or #fearlessedchat tonight but man if there was ever a time for some @_on11 positivity and optimism it's tonight my man.
Hey #fearlessedchat! Ryan, so happy to see you. We have missed you. Seriously. I am Michael A. from Chicago and I do stuff for @Simmonsknights1. I am usually laughing about or at someone...usually myself.
I can't participate in #scitlap#122edchat or #fearlessedchat tonight but man if there was ever a time for some @_on11 positivity and optimism it's tonight my man.
Jane, Grade 1 teacher from Newfoundland, Canada just finished #122edchat ... new to this chat thing, it loving the connections and positivity! #fearlessedchat
A1: I wish I would not have feared projects as much as I did last January-June. I was fearful of failure. This year, I am constantly trying to dive headfirst into authentic projects to promote growth in my students. #fearlessedchat@misskoplin@ERobbPrincipal
A1: I wish I had written more about education. I'm so uptight about confidentiality that sharing even my own reflections makes me nervous. #FearlessedChat
A1 I started the year trying to incorporate tech in logical ways, but sometimes revert back to my paper ways. After I'm done I think, darn that could have been done in #Google. #fearlessedchat
A1: Taken time to get some of my thoughts on paper. I spent lots of time thinking and processing, but fear of failure hijacked me again. #fearlessedchat
A1: I wish I had given a little more instruction on my expectations with my "littles/newbies". Since I loop students I always forget that my newbies don't always know what I'm talking about. #fearlessedchat
A1: today IοΈ conducted a #booktasting with HS students and it was awesome! IοΈ wish IοΈ hadnβt waited so long and let my insecurities keep me from doing things IοΈ think the kids would prosper from! #punkrocklibrarian#fearlessEDchat
HI! Danielle Miller, 6th Grade Math, Oak Lawn, IL #fearlessedchat
A1: Wish I could've found the time to read more professional books and do some personal reflecting.
Hahahaha! EXACTLY. And now, I pay the price. I have made it my main goal to do that for 2018. I have accountability with @megan_hacholski and Operation: Double Rainbow. #fearlessedchat
A1. For me, I always regret missing out on those little moments. New year, rejuvenated spirit. Seek out those little moments which are character and relationship building! #fearlessedchat
A2: Trying to be more innovative! Reflecting on @gcouros Innovators Mindset and @burgessdave#TLAP have encouraged me to work to design more engaging lessons for students and the projects I am doing seem to be doing that! #fearlessedchat
A1: I wish I would have given my students more choice. Delving into deeper learning, project based learning, and the innovation of education has shown me that students should have more choice, the ability and the freedom to choose what is presented. #fearlessedchat
A2: I have already created my own self-paced #googleclassroom courses for Ss & Ts as a model. Now I have to get a group of Ss interested in creating their courses. #fearlessedchat
A2: We are finally "hitting our stride", so I am very hopeful for this second semester. I just need to put in a reminder to myself so I don't do it again. #fearlessedchat
A2: By starting small, and collaborating with others. @MrPStrunk and @ToddRisser have great ideas and arenβt afraid to stray from what has been the norm, and be innovative #fearlessedchat

A2: MAKE IT HAPPEN! in my position, itβs all about finding a teacher thatβs willing to sacrifice 1 day to see what IοΈ can offer them and their students! #punkrocklibrarian#fearlessEDchat
Agreed! I discovered @GTeacherTribe in January 2017, who then led me to Twitter, then it was off to the races from there with making connections and learning/growing! #fearlessedchat
Our school is focusing on differentiation this year. I've been trying to integrate more choice as well. Just finished an awesome differentiated project on the Progressive Era. Students enjoyed it! #FearlessEdChat
A3: I really love my blog, my wife and my PLN as tools of accountability. Not in that order haha but those are all sources of accountability for me. #fearlessedchat
.@MrPStrunk, do you have something cool for immigration. My MS SS colleague, @emergingedu, is interested in doing a "cool" project around this. #fearlessedchat
In reply to
@MrPStrunk, @abasko325, @MrPStrunk, @emergingedu
I so struggle with this! I dont know how some teachers keep up with it all! Balancing twitter chats every night, and the work that we have to do already! lol #fearlessedchat
A3: In the end, I have to hold myself accountable for my own goals. Therefore I plan to use #googlecalendar#googlekeep as well as emailing my future self to keep me on pace. #fearlessedchat
A4: I love intention that is great. I like the idea that an intention is never really done or measurable as I think we can always improve. Great mindset #fearlessedchat
Yes! We're all about deeper learning and went 1:1 this year with laptops. The possibilities are endless! It's fantastic! Congratulations on a successful project! #Fearlessedchat
A4: You know what the saying is about good intentions? Time for that to change Love intentions over resolutions! The proof will be in the numbers. Good math never lies #fearlessedchat
A4: My INTENTION is to build my #PLN even MORE! Each and every day, no matter what, this IS HAPPENING! We all have the same goal: it's ALWAYS ABOUT THE KIDS! β€οΈ #KidsDeserveIt#TLAP#EduAR#fearlessedchat#g2great
A4: Love this question! My wife and I always make New Year's reservations instead of resolutions. It's not as reflective maybe, but it's an enjoyable meal. Measureable helps keep you accountable for sure. Set intentions that have steps along the way. #checkpoints#fearlessedchat
A4: If my students have learned something, or gained an essential experience, I know I have completed my intention, even if it may not have been how I envisioned it would occur. #fearlessedchat
Q4- Setting a calendar reminder so I can assess if I added a new writing opportunities each month. Writing daily is easy to measure π#fearlessedchat
A4: My intention is to integrate tech in my classroom on a more frequent, meaningful basis. I feel like I am doing that more (I feel like I always have the lab scheduled for me). I'll know I've completed it when I sit down in June and reflect on the year! #fearlessedchat
I cannot thank #fearlessedchat enough for the amazing chat!
Just a bit of an update for upcoming chats/this year!

A5: A personal intention of mine is to learn more church music for the piano. I have for a long time now wanted to be able to play piano for my church, just got a keyboard last Christmas and so far only know some Star Wars music and showtunes. O and Come Thou Font #fearlessedchat
A3: Loving building this PLN! I need to think on this one for a bit. Even though I may achieve my intentions, the belief is that there is nowhere to go but up! There are always more intentions to add! #fearlessedchat
A4. I'm so behind on this chat! (10 minutes!) My #oneword2018 was Adventure. As of today, I'm pretty sure I'll be headed to ISTE this year! Just one of my planned adventures this year! #fearlessedchat
A5: A personal intention I have for 2018 is to always find the positive. Smiling and being happy not only benefits you, but others as well. It truly is a choice, and I choose happy any day of the week. #fearlessedchat
A5. Along with my #oneword2018 , Adventure. I'm going to get back on my walking routine by making these small adventures right in my neighborhood to keep active. #fearlessedchat
