Welcome! Tonight's #AppleEDUchat is about Student Voice - #StuVoice. Why is it crucial to provide the opportunity for all to share what they know in a manner that can be amplified and lets real learning shine? #AppleEDUchat
Don from St.Louis, MO. I'm a multimedia educator & #medialiteracy advocate. Offering #Stuvoice & creating real-world opportunities for my students is the foundation of my job. #AppleEDUchat
Welcome: Students truly engage with their learning when they are asked to create a project in the iPad Lab. Then we share these projects with their peers for feedback. Hearing projects is as important as making them. #AppleEDUchat
Aaaaaaand… we’re off. #StuVoice is crucial to unleashing creativity and communication for all in the least restrictive manner. It properly values a learners perspective/learning. #AppleEDUchat

Welcome! Tonight's #AppleEDUchat is about Student Voice - #StuVoice. Why is it crucial to provide the opportunity for all to share what they know in a manner that can be amplified and lets real learning shine? #AppleEDUchat
A1: The #PowerofVideo is one of the single greatest tools to offer students an opportunity to share their #StuVoice. Use the Camera app, iMovie, @AdobeSpark video, FlipGrid, @SchoolTube. Video selfies, turn and interview tasks, ALL will provide great opps for kids. #AppleEDUchat
Hello Kathy from Waukesha, WI. It is crucial for Ss to share what they know to be empowered working with teachers, family & friends. To know they can ___. Step into the ring rather than sit in the shadows. #AppleEDUChat
#stuvoice is important because everyone’s voice is important. All ideas are worth sharing and each one can lead to new learning experiences. #AppleEDUchat
Hi There. Mike here from Dallas. I teach high school engineering and app development. Glad to be here talking about one of my favorite things... letting students truly demonstrate what they know. #appleeduchat
It is imperative that #studentvoice be amplified inside and outside of the classroom. Every student has a voice and deserves to be heard. #AppleEDUchat
Welcome! Tonight's #AppleEDUchat is about Student Voice - #StuVoice. Why is it crucial to provide the opportunity for all to share what they know in a manner that can be amplified and lets real learning shine? #AppleEDUchat
A1: Anything PBL is a great resource. Project based learning is an open-ended experience where students get to call most of shots (with guidance from the teacher). PBL is driven by student voice. #AppleEDUchat
A1: The Six-Word Story, Six Unique Shots lesson has truly been a blessing & eye opener for me & every student who has tried the project. It's introspective as well as thoughtful in teaching #medialiteracyhttps://t.co/6GHCvKQfZf#AppleEDUchat#powerofvideo
A1. I've been using @Flipgrid to let my students tell me and the rest of the class what they have learned and what accomplishments they have achieved. #appleeduchat
Preach! Love this. #StuVoice comes in a multitude of forms. From recordings to writings, to illustrations and photography. Our learners can share their understanding and voice in diverse ways. #AppleEDUChat
Welcome! Tonight's #AppleEDUchat is about Student Voice - #StuVoice. Why is it crucial to provide the opportunity for all to share what they know in a manner that can be amplified and lets real learning shine? #AppleEDUchat
A1: I absolutely love using @Seesaw in the classroom to promote #stuvoice. Seesaw allows Ss to share their ideas, creations & thinking and has changed the classrooms I teach in! #AppleEDUchathttps://t.co/SSASVBCu2H
Hi #AppleEDUchat - Liz here from rural southeastern Ohio! A1: There’s so many resources to promote #stuvoice - I think #Clips and @TouchCastEdu are my favs but it’s more about the assignment than the tool I think 👍🏼
A1: iBooksAuthor & Clips are outstanding for highlighting #StuVoice. Keynote shapes is perfect for learners to create visuals to augment their voice! #AppleEDUchat
A1: I’m loving online response systems where the teacher can “call on” every student and what they have to say can be read or seen by the whole class. #AppleEDUchat
A1. I love teaching engineering and app dev. There are no right answers except fo the one's that the students create. They get to determine how they meet the requirements. #appleeduchat
A1 using @Seesaw with my students this year has increased #StuVoice in my room! We app smash with so many awesome tools and upload to Seesaw #AppleEDUChat
Totally! Authentic learning naturally releases student voice - provided the structure and resources are available and encouraged and accepted. #AppleEDUChat
A1: We love using @Flipgrid and Twitter for our learners to reach a global audience. I also love anything where they're able to record their thinking... like @explainevrythng iMovie, Keynote, etc #AppleEDUChat
A1. @Flipgrid and YouTube are my primary ones. I have my online Ss do a flipgrid intro so I can “meet” them. Used it for concept reviews student made for each other. With YouTube some students made a video portfolio for a final. #PersonalizedPD
Listening is the only way #StuVoice will be heard and appreciated. Thanks for pointing that out because I think that authentic audience is often overlooked in the voice conversation. #AppleEDUChat
A2: Allowing Sts to be invested in their learning through choice of presentation or topic changes the landscape of their engagement & motivation. Example my student @MarilynLercel. Her digital portfolio only needed video, blog & contact page. https://t.co/Evs17MN6AN#AppleEDUchat
A2-Who doesn't love choices? Students excel in their learning when they are encouraged to create projects in a style or format they prefer. #AppleEDUchat
#AppleEDUchat A1. @Flipgrid and YouTube are my primary ones. I have my online Ss do a flipgrid intro so I can “meet” them. Used it for concept reviews student made for each other. With YouTube some students made a video portfolio for a final. #PersonalizedPD
A2: student choice lets the students know we trust them and acknowledge that they have a voice/choice in how they demonstrate their learning. No better voice than the ones making their Learning. #AppleEDUchat
A1: @PlayOsmo is an amazing resource that integrates seamlessly with the iPad. My libraries provide acces all day to K-12th grades. Creation with this product allows for #StuVoice to be amplified by showcasing their interests and skills. #AppleEDUchat
A2: Student choice is everything. Giving students choice adds value to their #stuvoice Ss know we trust and value their work when we give them choice #AppleEDUchat
You are so right. If you don't give them a choice, then they don't really have a voice. Then there isn't any ownership or accountability. #AppleEDUchat
A2 student voice hopefully guides students choice, at this time of the year my hope is that their tech choice is influenced by the message they want to deliver #AppleEDUchat
A2: Choice is a key ingredient in a feeling of ownership. Ownership leads to responsibility, attachment, accountability, and confidence. 👍#AppleEDUchat
A1: @Seesaw create an interactive forum where students can post drawings, audio, text, video and much more that pertain to learning. This can be with the class or in a public blog! #AppleEDUchat
Absolutely. It's amazing what happens when I give my seniors the opportunity to tell me how they will demonstrate their learning. It does so much to erase "Senioritis". #AppleEDUchat
A2: Providing choice allows for student to explore in their own creative way, relate to content or processes through their passions (which may still be undiscovered...) #StuVoice = put away the line by line rubrics that foster all S making the same project #AppleEDUchat
A2: Choice is a key ingredient in a feeling of ownership. Ownership leads to responsibility, attachment, accountability, and confidence. 👍#AppleEDUchat
Absolutely. It's amazing what happens when I give my seniors the opportunity to tell me how they will demonstrate their learning. It does so much to erase "Senioritis". #AppleEDUchat
A2: Choice promotes engagement, Students can choose their app/program of choice to create a personalized product to demonstrate mastery of standard or skills being taught #appleeduchat
A2) So many young adults feel they having had choices in their learning. Once they self-determine they embrace sharing their #StuVoice with excitement #appleEDUchat
A2- Student choice in our District is very diverse all Apple and Microsoft products available early guidance to a positive voice #StuVoice#AppleEDUchat
A2 I always let my 1st graders choose which app they’d use to share their learning. I even let them choose between paper/digital when it came to a task...it’s their learning, they didn’t have to do it “my” way... choice empowered my Ss to “own” their learning. #AppleEDUchat
A2 I always let my 1st graders choose which app they’d use to share their learning. I even let them choose between paper/digital when it came to a task...it’s their learning, they didn’t have to do it “my” way... choice empowered my Ss to “own” their learning. #AppleEDUchat
A2 Choice is essential to amplifying StuVoice. Choice is self directed and promotes ownership. I always ask my Ss "who owns your learning?" #AppleEDUchat
thank you, the final product wiil be QR codes of their campaign videos, the photography will by my kinder Ss and these posters will be used to teach others proper hygiene #AppleEDUchat
A2: Recent choice: Create a metaphor of the founding presidents using anything you are passionate about. Choices were wide open - with a couple of benchmarks. Students rose up and creatively shared their interests in Clips videos aside men that lived 200 years ago #AppleEDUchat
A2 I always let my 1st graders choose which app they’d use to share their learning. I even let them choose between paper/digital when it came to a task...it’s their learning, they didn’t have to do it “my” way... choice empowered my Ss to “own” their learning. #AppleEDUchat
A2: Learning becomes personalized and more engaging for the student. The product is something they can proud of and all the more motivating to share with others! #AppleEDUchat
A2: Giving students choice empowers them to be authentic in expressing their voice- it’s the extra “umph” that some students need to feel confident enough to share #AppleEDUchat
A3: Teaching 5th graders in the late 90s, we didn’t have easy options for publishing online. We ended up posting our book reviews on Amazon. What my students wrote could affect sales of the books they reviewed. #AppleEDUChat
A2 - I’ll add that creativity is often times born from limits and barriers…so NOT having choice can force students to get creative. :) #AppleEDUchat#StuVoice
A3-My students are thrilled to share their projects with their peers and families near and far using @Seesaw This encourages confidence and pride in the work they submit. #AppleEDUchat
A3: When students publish for a global audience the feedback is real. Teachers give feedback because it’s their job. The world gives feedback because they want to. https://t.co/yWZ1osel64#AppleEDUchat
A2. I believe student voice and choice go hand in hand! My kids need to drive their own bus in their own edu! They are more motives and empowered when heard! #AppleEDUchat
A3: Without an audience, you’re shining the light of learning without illuminating anyone else. Without an audience, you’ve relegated a creation to sub-worksheet levels. It’s two peas in a pod (audience and #StuVoice) #AppleEDUChat
A2: Some AR relating presidential administrations to your interest area and then sharing trigger images on your lockers for classmates, teachers to view - #StuVoice#AppleEDUchat
A3 I give students choices on how to share. Many choose Twitter on our student account. Feel free to follow my 7th graders on Twitter! @CouleeKids#AppleEDUChat
A3: My son’s first grade teacher posted her Ss firefly presentations on a private #Padlet wall and shared with parents. Moms/Dads left positive feedback on all presos. I love that the first time my son posted something online was a positive experience. #AppleEduChat
A3) Young adults present at our district conference @waukeshaone & support with tech issues almost daily. Teaching teachers builds skills they definitely need in their future & empowers them & their learning. #appleEDUchat
Q3: For my @LyfordTechSquad Ss authenticity happens when their #StuVoice is shared with Ts. They showcase Apple Tech and #EdTech resources. They love seeing the learning click! #AppleEDUchat
A3 - When the assignment is to "publish" instead of just "turn in" and the audience is more than just the teacher, students begin to understand the relevance of their work. Here's a #GarageBand my students created. #AppleEDUchathttps://t.co/OeyLQkQcok
A3: An authentic audience would be when my Kinder ESL Ss share their work during skyping sessions with other classes we connect to globally. Or when submitting work to #Seesaw which their parents see with the parent connection feature. #appleeduchat
A3- Another @seesaw shoutout! As a P, I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ being able to see my daughter’s work and creations, hear her thinking & listen to her voice. It’s so powerful to provide an audience to her & be able to ❤️ & comment on her posts. #AppleEDUchat
A3: An authentic audience provides real-world application to student learning. I think the connection that @StirpeCon students made with Hamlet cast is a perfect example of this! #AppleEDUchat
A3. it's highly motivating and allows Ss to create work with that audience in mind. We have several, but @padlet allows Ss to go outdoors while they document with photography and import for others to see and comment #AppleEDUchat
A3 - We’ve seen a difference in our MS PBL project this year. Last year, it was “present your findings to your class” - this year it is “we will take the best solutions and implement them in the school.” Kids are super motivated! #AppleEDUchat
A3 authentic audiences add an extra layer of pride to student work, this again, contributes to their taking ownership. Their name is on it, in public, that makes it real. This generation is growing up with SM, it’s not real until it’s SM real. #AppleEDUchat
A3: Authentic audience is the hardest part, especially for the little ones. Looking forward to trying Skpe with some kinders next month for a wider authentic audience. #AppleEDUchat
A3- Love that Q! Ss put forth their best effort when they know their work will be viewed. #CCSDfam Ss created the logo for our iPadcamp #WESiPadLab#StuVoice#AppleEDUchat
A3. We just finished a 3D printing project, but they were working with other teachers and classes. It wasn't about what I wanted. Here is one of their wrap up videos. #appleeduchat
I just taught all of 3rd grade some #magicmoveskills. Even pitched a session for #ISTE18 called ‘Become a Keynote Jedi’ - but alas, it was rejected #AppleEDUchat
In reply to
@KristenBrooks77, @annkozma723, @theipodteacher, @meredithedtech
A3: Student families and community members were a great audience for our students to research and present their findings on a community story/oral history https://t.co/atQIYqvc3p#AppleEDUchat
A3 My students wanted to be heard by an authentic audience last week, so some used Twitter. Here is one of my favorites. See more @CouleeKids#AppleEDUChat
A3. Again I'm such a huge fan of documentation with photography and I teach my Kinder Ss to do this. it allows them to tell so many stories with or without app smash, the choice is theirs #AppleEDUchat
A3: Sharing with@Seesaw is great (I ❤️it) but authentic learning also should be actionable and public. How can we encourage our students to create a better world? #AppleEDUchat

I do NOT love that this session was rejected... I love that you’re empowering young scholars w awesome, creative skills they’ll be able to apply to their learning... host that session in the hallway, I’ll attend! #iste18#AppleEDUchat#MagicMoveChallenge
In reply to
@mrhooker, @KristenBrooks77, @theipodteacher, @meredithedtech
RT @bookcreatorapp: After today’s exciting announcements from Apple, here’s an in-depth and scholarly evaluation of the differences between Pages new book making templates and Book Creator.
#AppleEDUchathttps://t.co/jMyQN3ak3P
A3: Have Ss collaborate regularly with other Ss in a different part of the globe. The collaboration creates more than an authentic audience; it creates partners in learning and global friendships. Cc @MsLuss#appleeduchat
Within @Seesaw - share to their blogs and Tweet it out, post it out, share it in anyway possible. I feel an obligation to amplify their voice because I have a more visible platform in our #PLN and #KidsDeserveIt#AppleEDUchat#StuVoice#SeesawChat
A3. 🤔🤔 so many ways- my kids tweet out their own learning, We are doing #gridpals with kids from Australia they @flipgrid since timezones don’t allow a @skype Also using @flipgrid to do a booktalk with class from New York, Mystery @skype globally & global math #AppleEDUchat
A4 Ss invest differently when they get to choose their pathway... I do too... interest, effort, attention, ownership... it all transforms when we empower our scholars to create, share and celebrate their learning process. #AppleEDUchat
A4- When they see the impact of their work, they not only have more buy-in, they own it. (Btw- I know this is students, but the same applies to teachers) #AppleEDUchat
A4. They are responsible for everything that goes into the product - research, planning, editing. There is no one giving them direction so it is theirs to own. #AppleEDUchat
A4 -- Students think, "My idea; I own it!" When the creativity comes from #StudentVoice instead of dictated by the teacher they don't have to be sold on the idea. #AppleEDUchat
A3: My first graders have a podcast that they produce. They brainstorm, use story boards and garbage band to enhance their voices! Here is one of our podcast. https://t.co/ExJOsAoVVH#AppleEDUChat
A4: For Ts and Ss alike, an opportunity to share your opinion + control over decisions made = increased “belief-in” (as opposed to “buy-in”) #AppleEDUchat
That's right. And they have more on the line. Their pride is in the mix. Student voice means they haven't been told what to create. They chose it. In this case, students really want to do their best. #AppleEDUchat
A4 Adults have more buy in when they have input into their learning pathways. Of course Ss do to, it makes sense. Choice respects the individual strengths, interest, and needs of each S, of all people. #stuvoice#AppleEDUchat
Q4: I figure kids are just like us - we prefer to have the autonomy to try our ideas - they enjoy the same freedom to choose and explore. #appleeduchat
A4) When they are invested, take ownership, have pride & are sharing their voice they light up - shine. They feel more confident taking those steps toward adulthood. #AppleEDUChat
A4- When they see the impact of their work, they not only have more buy-in, they own it. (Btw- I know this is students, but the same applies to teachers) #AppleEDUchat
A3: My student are ready to lend their voices and discuss when I break out discussion questions via Poll Everywhere. They participate polls, word clouds, and plain discussion. I also love conver-stations. #AppleEDUchat
A4: It’s like when we let Ss write their own stories - what’s important to them - all of a sudden the assignment becomes more meaningful and important... I think it’s similar w all examples of S voice. #AppleEDUchat
I used to teach K...they are more savvy than we give them credit for! Citizen science projects like @Feederwatch are great to engage young learners in authentic ways #AppleEDUchat
A3/4: Students who have a real voice put more thought and effort into what they do. My students wanted to be heard by an authentic audience last week, so some used Twitter. Here is one of my favorites. See more @CouleeKids#AppleEDUChat
A4b- Interesting counter to this question - Have any of you encountered students that don’t want a voice or choice? They just say “tell me what I need to do?” #AppleEDUchat
A4-My students are super excited to share their learning with the world. We always post to @seesaw but they also know the very best creations I will post to Twitter and YouTube for a larger audience to view. #clips#AppleEDUchat
A4: The product is theirs, they own it, and they want to share it with everyone. When is the last time Ss were burning to show their latest math worksheet to the world? #AppleEDUchat
A3: My first graders have a podcast that they produce. They brainstorm, use story boards and garbage band to enhance their voices! Here is one of our podcast. https://t.co/ExJOsAoVVH#AppleEDUChat
Q4: Ss have more buy in when given the choice because all sorts of talents and abilities become evident. Anime Club recording a jingle for an iBook project they’re working on. #AppleEDUchat
A4b - I've had that happen. And sometimes open ended choice projects have been very shallow. Some kids don't know where to go with the freedom. Anyone have suggestions to help? #AppleEDUchat
A4b- Interesting counter to this question - Have any of you encountered students that don’t want a voice or choice? They just say “tell me what I need to do?” #AppleEDUchat
A4: Every #stuvoice has their own opinions and original thoughts that want to be heard! Selecting the right tools to amplify their thoughts in a controlled forum will create more investment on the part of the student. #AppleEDUchat
A4. more engaged, motivated /PROUD of their finished product-they can’t wait to share it! My kids ❤️ sharing within our 4 walls and outside our 4 walls!@geniushour great example- kids had to create own rubric and their project had to have activity for audience;)
#AppleEDUchat
A5-Student Voice brings complete engagement and focus on what they are creating. My students continue to ask to create every class in the #WESiPadLab#AppleEDUchat
A4b: I have found that when you have each student create a proposal and then teacher conference with them, you can work through these issues. Sometimes students (like adults) just need to talk through something to truly own it. #AppleEDUChat
A5: Finding your voice opens doors. Finding your voice illuminates the your world. #StuVoice is about finding your authentic voice and building upon your passions while helping others learn more and discover theirs. #AppleEDUChat
A5: #StuVoice naturally engages Ss. When you engage and interact with a larger audience from a young age you stay engaged! You are empowered by your voice. #AppleEDUchat
Absolutely! When I show Ts @Seesaw I always try to get them to think about themselves as Ps and how much they would love that peek into their kids’ classrooms! #appleeduchat
Thanks for joining my friend #ADE2017 best class ever! I know you must be exhausted. Can't wait to hear all about your amazing class on clips today! #AppleEDUChat
A5 when Ss see their learning as having an impact... or realize it goes beyond the 4 walls of their classroom, they see that their voice (their words, their learning...) matters in the real world... #stuvoice#AppleEDUchat
A5: Look at us: we have chosen to participate in this chat, sharing & learning together because we have chosen to do so. Kids will do the same if we show them how now #AppleEDUchat
A5: Because when Ss are creators they want to create more. They can go home and use their new skills to make movies, songs, works of art... When Ss feel like they have a voice, they want to share it. #AppleEDUchat
A5: I have realized, our students don’t come in knowing how to use their voices. When we help them to unlock them at their voices sound like... we unlock infinite possibility! #AppleEDUchat#fortheloveoflearning
A5 Helping young students find their voice empowers them toward life long success! They have confidence to make a difference in their lives and others as well #StuVoice#AppleEDUChat
A5: Because when Ss are creators they want to create more. They can go home and use their new skills to make movies, songs, works of art... When Ss feel like they have a voice, they want to share it. #AppleEDUchat
A5 - My best example of this - getting a facebook post from my former 1st graders (10 years later) - telling me how they still remember all the great things they did in my class with voice/choice and how it impacted them. #AppleEDUchat
A5: I have realized, our students don’t come in knowing how to use their voices. When we help them to unlock their voices... we unlock infinite possibility! #AppleEDUchat#fortheloveoflearning
A5 -- Anytime we teach students to fish, we encourage them to be curious and creative problem-solvers who let nothing stand between them and success. This past Saturday showed America the power of #StudentVoice! #AppleEDUchat
A5 #stuvoice ups the engagement and ownership of learning. engaged learners are lifelong learners. Bringing authentic audience and having Ss really see the impact and meaning of their learning is powerful. #AppleEDUchat
A5- When the learning is creative and students get to choose how they "show what they know" the learning continues on and on. #keynote#MagicMoveChallenge#AppleEDUchat
Q5: Their choices will develop skill sets that will become resources to them. That type of learning can not be undone. It will go with them way past our classroom doors. #AppleEDUchat
A5 An example that pops in my head is in 7th grade using Pinterest to have students select primary sources on the Vietnam war to pin. I have had seniors still pinning to the 7th grade class boards created 5 years before. It will be fun if this continues! #AppleEDUChat
A5: Lifelong learning can only happen with motivation! Students that are given the chance to express themselves in meaningful ways will caring those experiences throughout their lifetime. #AppleEDUchat
A5: Lifelong learning occurs when they create and have those A-Ha moments. Creating and putting their own brand of personality into their presentation will stay with them! Clips is a wonderful vehicle for this!#AppleEDUchat
@KristenBrooks77 & @AndyLeiser Sorry I have to bow out early! Thank you for hosting a topic that supports Ss as they grow into their futures #stuvoice critical. If you are on break this week - enjoy all!! #AppleEDUChat
Q5:One of the biggest things we can do for our kids is show them that their voice matters. AND in doing this, we have to remember that their voice matters all the time, not just when it is convenient or for the duration of a project. Then we'll get lifelong learners #appleeduchat
A4: All students have their own way of learning and comprehending information and skills, so when they are doing things their way and using their imagination they take pride in what they have done and comprehend it more! #appleeduchat
A5: I have realized, our students don’t come in knowing how to use their voices. When we help them to unlock their voices... we unlock infinite possibility! #AppleEDUchat#fortheloveoflearning
A5. Student voice Allows my kids to know important each of them are in our family! We need each of them -
I ❤️ and value each of my kiddos! Builds family culture - my kids made iMovies about our family💞 we uploaded to @padlethttps://t.co/DQXhPLPshF…
#AppleEDUchat
A5: When students see that their voice is heard and that they are being heard not only in the classroom, but also outside the classroom they see that they matter and then will continue doing as they have been. #appleeduchat
Never underestimate the importance of proper modeling and use of your own voice as a leader. Students are watching and will learn for our example. Make certain your #StuVoice is a solid example. #AppleEDUChat
A5. Student voice Allows my kids to know important each of them are in our family! We need each of them -
I ❤️ and value each of my kiddos! Builds family culture - my kids made iMovies about our family💞 we uploaded to @padlet#AppleEDUchathttps://t.co/92Gnh38mun
A6: When students aren't restricted to choice & thinking, true creativity emerges. They will struggle with this at first bc they are so used to being told what to do. Let them feel the struggle to find their #Stuvoice & watch as magic happens. #AppleEDUchat
A6: #StuVoice with an authentic audience (including their peers) will inspire and push learners forward. Our creativity can be stretched further. Innovation naturally grows. #AppleEDUChat
Q6: Again, when students see authentic contexts for learning, they are more likely to invest their time and energy in creative and innovative ways. We have to get out of their way and give them the room to do it. #appleeduchat
A6 - Innovation is a new way of doing things. Student voices bring new perspectives, and are not encumbered by “the way we’ve always done it” #appleeduchat
Agreed, my kids are always excited to find they can use tools outside school, be it @scratch or @DoInkTweets I love it when they come back and share projects created outside school #AppleEDUchat
A6. When the teacher controls the output, there is only one idea coming out. When students truly have a voice, there are sooooo many more ideas. Creativity and innovation only come from volume. "The best way to get a great idea is to get lots of ideas" #AppleEDUchat
A6: When students see that their voice matters they in turn gain confidence which then helps them use their mind to think in their own way and make their voice heard even more. #appleeduchat
A1: The #PowerofVideo is one of the single greatest tools to offer students an opportunity to share their #StuVoice. Use the Camera app, iMovie, @AdobeSpark video, FlipGrid, @SchoolTube. Video selfies, turn and interview tasks, ALL will provide great opps for kids. #AppleEDUchat
A6: I’m going to take a different approach... I think teachers have the power to see what is missing from a classroom and educational experience. When administrators believe in and support teachers, students and teachers work together to innovate for tomorrow. #AppleEDUchat
A6: My final share out about student creativity & innovation & #Stuvoice is a video one of my students created which followed my students after they graduated from my class. I believe it validates what I shared tonight. https://t.co/QWXLcrj502#AppleEDUchat
A6: When they feel comfortable sharing their #StuVoice they’ll likewise feel comfortable trying new things, embracing the creative and curious side of their brain! Seeing that it’s ok to try new things and learn from mistakes! #AppleEDUchat
A6 by unlocking possibilities we allow our Ss the chance to experience what may still be unknown... empower voice & embrace opportunity, creativity and innovation will follow. It’s our job to provide the pathways.
#AppleEDUchat#ForTheLoveOfLearning
A6 -- When we let #StudentVoice shine and allow it to be infused into our curriculum, instruction, and assessment, then we'll begin to shift to more innovative teaching and learning. #AppleEDUchat
A6. Student voice opens a door to innovation and another door to creativity! As long as we open doors for kids - kids will be more apt to share their voice and feel empowerment! #AppleEDUchat
A6: I’m going to take a different approach... I think teachers have the power to see what is missing from a classroom and educational experience. When administrators believe in and support teachers, students and teachers work together to innovate for tomorrow. #AppleEDUchat
A6: Ss voice empowers students by allowing them to take the lead & change the parameters. This makes them more accustomed to inquiry, big ideas, & solving authentic problems based on their own passions. #AppleEDUchat
A6: I’m going to take a different approach... I think teachers have the power to see what is missing from a classroom and educational experience. When administrators believe in and support teachers, students and teachers work together to innovate for tomorrow. #AppleEDUchat
Wowzers! #AppleEDUChat you never disappoint. Time to tuck the kids in bed - thanks for lending your Voice to the conversation. We all grew greater, together, tonight. #StuVoice
A6: When we let #stuvoice innovate in the classroom, we must become the “protectors” who buffer them from red tape and enable then to take risks #appleeduchat
What a great chat tonight! So many amazing educators online to share! Always a pleasure to learn from and with you all! Thank you @AndyLeiser@KristenBrooks77#AppleEDUChat
Glad I caught the tail end of this - now off to hear my own little student's voice in her Student Led Conference - wishing you all a great day from Nanjing, China! #appleeduchat
