Interested in student-driven classrooms? Join Dr. Nancy Sulla @nsulla (author of Students Taking Charge, Its Not What You Teach But How, Building Executive Function: The Missing Link to Student Achievement, and more) and educators from all over in #LATICchat on Thursday nights at 8pm ET. We hope to bring together a community of educators to share insights, stories, examples, pictures from their classrooms, and more. We welcome all educators to join; no need to be running a #LATIC classroom.
Welcome to #LATICchat tonight! We are discussing how we can teach Ss to manage #InformationOverload in a 'Net-Centric Society. Please introduce yourself...
#LATICchat GAME CHANGER! Ask Ss to open their iPhone settings to check last 24 battery usage per app. Then ask them to check @Schoology grades. They realize how much they need to prioritize!! I promise. It is eye opening for them!!
A1: SO many skills! Shifting focus, time management, holding on to one piece of information while considering another, questioning validity, following multiple steps and more! #LATICchat
A1) online resources can be group by their efficient usefulness in each learning situation. Some sources are better for science info than social studies for ex. #LATICchat
Love this. So often we give the criteria instead of supporting students to develop the questions to ask themselves as they consume digital literacy. #LATICchat
A2 juggling multiple tabs or windows and knowing how to avoid bunny trails or getting distracted by other things; saving links for later, organizing web based resources #LATICchat
It was an amazing day in the classroom! They did volunteer to share. 1 S spent 11 of 24 hours on YouTube. And is failing English. One was on Snap for 7 of 24 hours. Netflix was a HUGE too. Others had low numbers Bc they were on fortnite. 😒#LATICchat
A2 S's need to identify important information and express themselves or respond in brief format. Multi task to explore multiple links, My S's translated POTUS Wilson's 14 points into either emoji's or #Hashtags#LATICchat
Not able to join #LATICchat tonight - attending the @HillsboroughSch#STEMfair! Claire won outstanding in the physical science category for her investigation on natural filters! Thanks @IDECorp for inspiring me to inspire her!
If using @Schoology use the updates feature as if it a FB post. Use often. Use it to post info for absent Ss, how to find make up work, build classroom community through discussions but demand for formal speaking. #LATICchat
A4 S's need to learn netiquette, digital literacy and also digital appropriateness. The LATIC provides so many platforms, opportunities and teachable moments for these digital skills and responsibilities. #LATICchat
A4) With virtual collaboration, students need to comment, comment, comment on one another's work and not just focus on what they are adding to the final product! #LATICchat
#LATICchat early out tomorrow! Shortened, 30 minute classes anyway. Short 15 minute quiz, then mindfulness with the @calm app! No phones, no iPads, heads down, lights out.
They also need to struggle with success and failure, right and wrong and when and when not to. All appropriate for a classroom to explore, demo and reinforce. Keep up the great work! #LATICchat
CA) My take-away is to ressurrect my old Temple U article on hyperlinking narrative and get conversations rolling around that again! I wrote it for them in 2001 with the tag line "an idea whose time has come. " ummmmm, not yet! Is 3-D writing part of your curriculum? #LATICchat
CA I will certainly take a closer look at Dr. Sulla's list and would like to try @MrsTaylor617 activity. Interested in S's perspective on this topic. Maybe have them respond in our table journals. #LATICchat
Just wanted to say hi to all my #LATICchat friends! I miss you all, I’m preparing for the first defense of my dissertation, hence the reason for being MIA during chats. I promise to come back soon
Thank you all for the inspiration and solutions tonight! Love my #LATICchat Friends! Join us next week and bring a friend. It's Valentine's Day so we are sharing the #LATIC love! Take pics this week. :-)
Checkout the movie Stargate when they talk about 6 points to locate a place in a cube but also need a 7th coordinate as a starting point. It was on after Black Hawk Down yesterday. #LATICChat
