I cannot wait for @teachforthewin to answer this question... although she certainly doesn’t have enough characters in a tweet to share it all. #wearewayne

A1: 4th grade #wearewayne
-Creating online learning content for students for blended learning during reading and math workshops
-Gamifying instruction to increase student motivation and engagement
-Helping learners CREATE content rather than just consume it

A1: Blessed to be 1 to 1 with chrome books in 3rd, so tons of google tools are integrated, video response tools, different online math tools, etc....and I am currently working on plans for our google expedition on Thursday/Friday!!! #wearewayne
A1 #wearewayne
I also love that tech tools help to make materials and lessons more accessible for my included students. I've seen my students grow in independence and confidence when using Google read and write and video response through padlett and flipgrid

Gamification is using game theory (winning points, leveling up, competition, cooperation) with learning theory. I use @classcraftgame to make learning both cooperative & competitive. Students earn points by completing learning tasks to level up/build up their avatar.

A2: Some amazing techie educators that I follow for their ideas are @KamiButterfield and @techtrender85 I also love stalking the #wearewayne to see the amazing-ness that happens around the district!

A3: Listening to my colleagues, blogs, trial/error, etc! I love collaborating with others on what they are using and how it is working! Also, I listen to my kids! They are just as valuable in new resources/ideas! #wearewayne
A3: SOCIAL MEDIA (blogs, twitter, instagram, Facebook pages, online articles, etc)....Sometimes I wonder how I taught without it and the world wide community it provides! 😂 #wearewayne
A3: When choosing a tool or app to use, I always try to have a clear idea about how it will enhance student learning. I find the best tools are ones that solve a problem in my classroom (engagement, accessibility, 21st cent skills etc). Not using tech just to use tech #wearewayne

A3: look for which tool will most efficiently help me reach my end goal, love easy collaboration ones and those allowing all students to have a voice ... critical when choosing! #wearewayne
Allowing all students to have a voice is so important - I'm currently reading the book Empower (which I believe you recommended to me) and it's the theme throughout! #wearewayne

A4: It can bring so many elements into the claasroom for scholars to experience, it also gives our Ss a way to participate and “show what they know” in the classroom setting #WeAreWayne
A4: Studnt engagement, student choice, motivation! We are meeting the students where they are and want to be! My technology integration gives my students the driver seat to their own learning! #wearewayne
A4: The biggest benefit is helping students become passionate about learning and teaching them how to direct their own learning path- they have the world at their fingertips. Increased motivation & engagement from tech goes a long way in making that happen. #wearewayne
