    Hello #NoVAedchat Brian joining from Fairfax, former English teacher, now ESOL data specialist. Hoping to see @libraryms and @coreythornblad I recently learned that SIRI can turn on the iPhone flashlight, small thing but totally life changing.

    Hi!!!!! #novaedchat
  • MrsTannenb Jan 23 @ 8:06 PM EST
    Hi, I'm Debbie, a Technology Specialist at Vienna ES. There are lots of things I am curious about, but today because of #ETCoaches, I have been thinking about #blogging #NoVaEdChat
  • abctec Jan 23 @ 8:07 PM EST
    A1: research online, follow twitter feeds, read books, engage with other colleagues about similar interests, attend workshops or trainings. #NoVAedchat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:07 PM EST
    A1 I usually learn about them on twitter or from talking to people I know. I'm a total talker... today @scholarcation and @Sa_rah_Olson and I were talking about books to read and podcasts to listen to. I now have a longer list! #novaedchat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:07 PM EST
    #novaedchat late to the party tonight! There are too many things bumping around this brain... I want to learn it all!!!
  • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1 Twitter and Instagram #NoVAedChat
  • ItsMrsDuffy Jan 23 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1: I read a lot and see a lot on social media. Twitter and Instagram teacher communities have been a lifesaver. #NoVAedChat
    • NoVAEdChat Jan 23 @ 8:05 PM EST
      Q1 How/Where do you learn about new things you want to try in your classroom or school? #NoVAedChat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:08 PM EST
    Ooooh! Do you blog? I love to process my thinking that way AND I struggle to make time or make it a priority. I want to do more of that but have dropped the ball lately. #NoVAedchat

    A1: my teacher tribe is always inspiring me! And OBVIOUSLY #novaedchat is a huge inspiration. Twitter really has been a game changer for my personal learning

    Hahah! Priorities! How did you do tonight? #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @TeacherBowers
  • BrianHerb17 Jan 23 @ 8:11 PM EST
    A1 I mostly learn about new things from reading articles online, and connecting with other educators in my office and via Twitter. #NoVAedchat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:11 PM EST
    Do you follow edu-peeps on instagram and learn that way? I have kept my personal stuff on insta and my professional stuff on twitter. FB is kind of in between when I use it... Don't want to miss out if the good stuff is on insta!! #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @_missquarter
  • TeacherBowers Jan 23 @ 8:11 PM EST
    A1: so I know it’s the ovious answer but twitter has been a game changer for me. So many good ideas!!! #NoVAedchat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:12 PM EST
    On the socials, I dabble in Pinterest as well, I feel like I’ve got a lot of ideas there waiting for me to revisit them #novaedchat

  • abctec Jan 23 @ 8:12 PM EST
    Me too. Purchased her book, and now my cluttered daughter who owns 5 times more clothes than I do wants to organize. It will take days. We are on day two. This was before we started. We put ALL of her clothes in one place. :( #NoVAedchat

  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:13 PM EST
    What is your goal? Do you want to start your own blog or something for your school? I'd start with a wordpress or blogger site with your personal gmail if it's not directly for your school/job #novaedchat
    In reply to @MrsTannenb
  • timstahmer Jan 23 @ 8:14 PM EST
    Sometimes I wonder if maybe “new” has been overhyped when it comes to edtech. We keep looking for something different and fail to make good use of what we already have. #NoVaEdChat
  • NoVAEdChat Jan 23 @ 8:15 PM EST
    Q2: What makes a tool/resource a good fit for your students? #NoVAedChat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:15 PM EST
    I use it in class!!!! It’s another obsession of mine!! #novaedchat

  • MrsTannenb Jan 23 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A2: A tool or resource needs to not only fit students' need but offer them new ways to demonstrate their learning/understandings #NoVaEdChat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:16 PM EST
    #NoVAedchat
    • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:15 PM EST
      I follow a few edu-peeps on Instagram. It’s great to see what other #spedteachers do/use in the classroom

      I just hashtag my speciality/grade level. There’s A LOT of teachers on there.
      In reply to @MrsTannenb, @TechyMargaret
  • abctec Jan 23 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2: for my k-3 school, a tool is good for our kiddos if it is easy to get to and has systems in place to support students understanding of navigating the tool. #NoVaEdChat
  • ItsMrsDuffy Jan 23 @ 8:17 PM EST
    If it will enhance the learning, amplify the learning or facilitate independence then it’s a good fit. Differentiate product then it fits. #NoVaEdChat
  • BrianHerb17 Jan 23 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2 A tool is a good fit if it is easy to use, intuitive, and helps us do something we couldn’t do before. #NoVAedchat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2: it has to be relevant and practical. Just because it’s a shiny new thing doesn’t mean it’s going to connect with the kids. I’m constantly offering up new options, some don’t fit. Have a conversation, adjust and redo or move on #novaedchat
  • sb_hale Jan 23 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: engaging, not overused, content driven, choices, easy to use on a mobile device. #NoVaEdChat
    In reply to @NoVAEdChat
  • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2 So I pretty much attempt to use everything for my students even if outsiders say it won’t work for my students. It might not work for all but it might work for that one. It can cause stress but I want my Ss to have access to all #NoVAedchat
  • techinteaching - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2 I think it meets the needs or supports what we’re doing or want to do. #NoVAedchat
  • TeacherBowers Jan 23 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: All of my students need to be able to access it. #flipgrid has been awesome for my kids. There are so many possiblities. #NoVAedchat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:19 PM EST
    Sounds like I need to add Chefs Table to my list of things to learn/watch/figure out! #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @ProfeTravis, @_missquarter
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    Very good point - just this week @Mrs_Ziab shared a new way to use a tool we have had for ages. Whether that feature was new or not, I have no idea, but it's new to me! I like learning more about the things I already utilize #NOVAedchat @timstahmer
    • timstahmer Jan 23 @ 8:14 PM EST

  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    A2.2. I really love it when a new tool clicks with real world applications: Adobe, google, etc. are all going to support their world post school #novaedchat
  • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    For translations? I want to find a way to use this in my classroom cause it has become an addiction #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @ProfeTravis
  • timstahmer Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    The tools that I recommend are those used by the students themselves. We need to work harder to give control of the technology to the kids. They often find more imaginative ways to use it that we can conceive. #NoVaEdChat
  • The_MrsMorales Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    I’m Elizabeth, and I’m a 4th grade teacher at Mount Vernon Woods ES. I’m excited to see what the #NoVaEdChat community has to share tonight. Also, here’s actual footage of me making it through this week 😂
  • TeacherBowers Jan 23 @ 8:20 PM EST
    I like that. Help us do something we couldn’t do before. #NoVaEdChat
    In reply to @BrianHerb17
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:21 PM EST
    "have a conversation, adjust and redo or move on" modeling that reflection is KEY! Kids (and colleagues) need to know it's ok to try something and not love it. Figure out why... reflect, refine or bail out. @ProfeTravis #NoVAedchat
    • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:17 PM EST

    Google classroom has been the best thing for me and the Ss. Especially if I’m out for the day or a Ss was out #NoVAedchat

    I just use it for listening practice and culture. But I have a dongle that lets me stream from my phone since Netflix is blocked... we’ll talk! #NoVaEdChat

    Agreed! #NoVAedchat
    • MrsTannenb Jan 23 @ 8:22 PM EST
      Like @ShakeUpLearning , technology is an opportunity, not just a tool.
      In reply to @TeacherBowers, @BrianHerb17, @ShakeUpLearning
  • Mrs_Ziab Jan 23 @ 8:23 PM EST
    Yes! I had an administrator once ask me, "So what's the new Kahoot?" But really I value tools which allow us to have Ss communicate learning in multiple, varied ways. Padlet, for ex, is a tool many Ts are familiar with and you can continue stretching how Ss interact! #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @TechyMargaret, @timstahmer
  • The_MrsMorales Jan 23 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A1: I’ve gotten sooo many great ideas from Twitter & peer observations. Being able to “peek” into other peoples’ classrooms has been one of the most impactful practices in my own teaching career. #NoVaEdChat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:24 PM EST
    This is so important @ItsMrsDuffy #NoVAedchat
    • ItsMrsDuffy Jan 23 @ 8:23 PM EST
      I tell my students to please tell me when something isn’t working. I’ll change it. Read more about it and try again. I count on them to tell me when something doesn’t work for them.

  • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:25 PM EST
    I was hesitant to use #Flipgrid with #sped Ss but finally implemented last week & love seeing how much more engaged Ss are becoming #NoVAedchat
    In reply to @TeacherBowers
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:25 PM EST

  • ItsMrsDuffy Jan 23 @ 8:27 PM EST
    @ClassroomScreen has been a game changer in my room. I put up my objective for the day, the days to do list, a timer, a digital clock and a QR code on the board. I have recently discovered QR codes and their use in the classroom. #NoVaEdChat

    A3: so a simple tool I have used for MYSELF recently is digital post-it’s and googles keynote. And analog tool I have used for myself recently is my #bulletjournal #NoVAedChat
  • _missquarter Jan 23 @ 8:27 PM EST
    A3 Flipgrid! I had Ss do an exit ticket after a gallery walk and then a low-budget flipped classroom when I was out this week #NoVAedchat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:27 PM EST
    So many tools for access! I’ve got a tool from #vste2018 that has a ton of ideas for sped supports! I’ll shoot you an email tomorrow! #novaedchat

  • MrsTannenb Jan 23 @ 8:28 PM EST
    A3: A new tool that I just started using is @instagram . I joined it to participate in @gcouros book study for Innovator's Mindset- but am finding new things to learn there too.#teachersofinstagram .#NoVaEdChat
  • TeacherBowers Jan 23 @ 8:29 PM EST
    @Flipgrid & @GoogleForEdu. Having the ability to listen to all of my students skip count and Note their errors and misconceptions on my own time and not to have to pull them one on one has been a huge timesaver. I can’t imagine teaching without #GoogleClassroom. #NoVAedchat
  • abctec Jan 23 @ 8:29 PM EST
    Love QR codes. Super fun! #novaedchat we did book reviews and made #QRcodes and stuck them to books in the library :))
    In reply to @ItsMrsDuffy, @ClassroomScreen
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:29 PM EST
    Just all the yes here! What a great model for our Ss when we look at “soft skills” flexibility, collaboration, persistence! #FCPSPoG #NoVaEdChat
    In reply to @ItsMrsDuffy, @TechyMargaret
  • The_MrsMorales Jan 23 @ 8:29 PM EST
    A2: A tool/resource that’s a good fit for my students has to: -lend itself well to scaffolds -have options for assessment -provide opportunities for all students to be successful #NoVaEdChat
  • techinteaching - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:29 PM EST
    I’m such a fan of @Flipgrid it has so many applications that have a great connection to reflection and learning. #novaedchat

    Your bullet journal is beautiful! I've been using my @getRocketbook - reusable notebook (never run out of pages) that has an app to send my notes to organized folders in google/email to folks. It's keeping me on top of notes from #AllTheMeetings #novaedchat
    In reply to @abctec, @getRocketbook

    A3: the draftback extension is a new fave! See keystroke by keystroke student work in docs and graph progress. It’s awesome for digging in on digital work and seeing HOW students are working #novaedchat
  • BrianHerb17 Jan 23 @ 8:32 PM EST
    A3: I've been playing around with @IFTTT recently, connecting a Twitter hashtag to a Google sheet, to help ESOL moderate our #ELchatFCPS Every time someone tweets the hashtag, their contribution to the chat is recorded #NoVaedchat

    A3: I’ve been on a webquest kick lately. Curating articles, videos, texts, etc. and providing a prompt on Flipgrid has been very effective. I use a checklist to take anecdotal notes/check for understanding as I watch their videos, which helps me tailor instruction. #NoVaEdChat

    It really is amazing. I have another @IFTTT setup for our neighborhood pool. Life guards use a Google form when there's a weather related closing, and the info automatically gets sent out on Twitter and email. One click and everyone knows the pool's closed. #NoVAedchat

    A4 Not a tool at all, but I'm recently obsessed with the REAL history. Not the stories we've been taught. I read and have been listening to podcasts that are basically investigating and documenting what was left out. Now I want to learn all the things #NoVAedchat

  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:46 PM EST
    A5 I currently need a way to embed all the tweets from a hashtag on a google site. Apparently twitter killed off this feature using embed codes (can embed a user timeline, a moment, etc, but not a hashtag) #novaedchat
  • BrianHerb17 Jan 23 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A5 I want to be able to transition between audio book and ebook and not lose my place. Not really education related i guess... unless it's students who are doing the reading. #NoVAedchat
  • ProfeTravis Jan 23 @ 8:48 PM EST
    A5: my gap is always great feedback. The tools that best support MY end of the classroom help me give quality and timely feedback to my kids #novaedchat
  • TechyMargaret - Moderator Jan 23 @ 8:50 PM EST
    YESSSS!!! There has to be a way. I'm often transitioning between audio book and paperback. I want a way for me to tell the app what print edition I have and it to give me page numbers. i can't always stop at a chapter end/beginning #NOVAedchat

    Even better. I connected bookmark for your paperback that scans the page and knows where you are in the book so you can pickup where you left off in your eBook and audio book. #NoVAedchat

  • timstahmer Jan 23 @ 8:54 PM EST
    Having students record podcasts is a good start. The next step is finding a way for them to have an authentic audience for their work. They need to distribute their work to a world outside of the “walled garden”. #NoVAedChat
