MsAre May 19 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech where did this year go? #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @EricAfterSchool Ditto! My sons and I are hanging out while I chat here #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens fun! seeing anything good?! #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:05 PM EDT

We are always going. Summer is actually our busy season. A SM maven's work is never done. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Q1: What types of things do you think the tech team does in the summer? #isedchat

nathan_stevens May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech been doing a lot. #isedchat

nstifel May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Hey @nathan_stevens Long time no tweet. #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Hey all - Jason, tech director from Dallas checking in! #isedchat

nathan_stevens May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@nstifel hi Nan #isedchat

nstifel May 19 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Our tech team will be converting a computer lab into a new makerspace. Whoo-hoo! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan hey - I know you sit around all summer and put your feet up... your thoughts on Q1?! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@nstifel awesome! that sounds like super fun.. #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1 first things first...unplug! #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:08 PM EDT

A1: maintenance, upgrades, setups and generally anything else that would drive the rest of the school nuts during the year. #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:08 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech A1 upgrades, web redesign, continue our onSuite implementation. #isedchat

nathan_stevens May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech A1 LAN parties duh #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@lcarroll94 so they are keeping busy.. #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

Summer is super busy for tech staff--imaging, updating, replace/upgrade/repair. Likely to be running PD programs as well #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Ha! Actually this summer I'll be learning some new softwares :) #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@nathan_stevens that sounds like fun!! I prefer VLAN parties myself. I plan to show other HoS about them! #isedchat ;)

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan nice, nice... like what? #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A1: reflect on what works, needs improvement, prepare for next year #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A1: Our IT folks are very busy upgrading everything for the new year. Boarding schools go 24/7 so summer is crucial time for them. #Isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Very! When I was Director of Tech, summer was not relaxing at all... #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@MsAre important to unplug a bit.. I always found people thought I "chilled in the summer" little did they know.. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@lcarroll94 I hated to check social media in the summer and see pix of the Ts at the beach!! haha #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

Also, there's usually some kind of remodel, moving, construction going on in the summer at schools that requires technology. #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @slack and a new curation/sharing tool that came from a partnership with AT&T #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@theatlis what about folks focused on EdTech? #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A1: #MakerFaire. It's an idea/inspiration engine for the school year. #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech haha so true! I have too much to learn to be away from tech for too long. Learning balance is key for me #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan @Learn21Tech @slack Can u discuss the new tool? #isedchat

nathan_stevens May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @lcarroll94 oh the life of the twelve monthers #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@skeeTX love it... good thoughts. I didn't always take the time to do that at first when I was in tech.. but learned so imt #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@lcarroll94 I've been advocating that summer isn't necessarily a good time for technology staff changes. What do you think? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@EricAfterSchool I think its probably crucial for all and even more perhaps for boarding! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@theatlis @lcarroll94 agree.. December is better IMO #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:13 PM EDT

Q2: How large is the tech team at your school? Are they 10 or 12 month employees? #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:13 PM EDT

As a T I intend to try new tools, explore and research new tech to improve my class #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@skeeTX @Learn21Tech I think so... :) It basically allows us to curate online content, tag it and share it within the organization #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@skeeTX that is awesome! Do you get APP or software recommendations to try? I know my school is putting a PD menu together #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: we have IT director, 3 support staff #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@skeeTX @Learn21Tech I'll report back with more as I dig in. It seems like it has great potential for resource sharing. #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: 3-12mth, 3-10mth (Tech integrators) and 1 gets hired for summer grunt work of upgrades #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan Giant curator/filter??? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

In my last school (PK-12 all-girls, 400 Ss) we had Me(CIO) + IT Manager, EdTech Manager, 2 supports. #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A2: 3 people in IT 12 mon, 3 in IS 10 month #isedchat Anyone else split integration? @Learn21Tech

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Hi @MsAre haven't seen you in a while #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@MsATesta I miss you! #isedchat #crazyweek

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

In my current school (9-12 Indy Catholic) we have 1.5 folks focused on tech and some networking outsourced. #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech most I find myself via Twitter, social media. Love to dabble! #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2: We've got 15 folks, the instructional, administrative and A/V folks are 10 month and the rest of us are 12 month #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@skeeTX how many students? Who does EdTech? #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2: 7 on IT team. 12 monthers, I believe. #Isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@MsATesta I always had 1-3 student interns in the summer... could NOT have done it without them. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan large team! (I know you are a large school!) #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech so true, we have had same kid for a few years. I come in and play with #makered stuff #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@EricAfterSchool how many students at your school? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Q3: What’s the difference between a Tech Director and an EdTech Director - can someone be both? #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech we have 475ish pk-8. EdTech done by director and 3 staff, 2 of whom are integrated in lower and middle school. #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:19 PM EDT

.@Learn21Tech 540 students.#isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: I'm both. It's a tricky balancing act to honor the priorities and needs of both sides of the coin. #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@theatlis I agree ! I use to do smaller upgrades over thanksgiving and winter break. worked well. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: I think someone CAN be both.. but then need structure where a manager of each area (systems and EdTech) reports IMO #isedchat

3littlenutters May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech #isedchat our time to PD and prepare for the next year. #ourworkisneverdone

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: can be both but not necessarily. IT can manage hardware/network etc while edtech can assist in class w/ Ts & Ss, Ps #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A3: edtech focuses on integration, tech focused on hardware @Learn21Tech #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: While I think someone could be both, we just created integrationist position to make distinction clearer and support teachers. #Isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech May be diff for others, but TD was teacher-facing while EdTechD was student facing. #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I think someone can be both but would naturally fall on either the "more techy" side or "edtech" side. #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech agreed. #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:22 PM EDT

Edtech important as many Ts don't keep up with tech and revert to old practices. Some still fear the tech #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@skeeTX If its two folks they have to work together really well... some models have both reporting to diff managers as well. #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech tech directors can intimidate some teachers #isedchat edtech has education background

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@MsAre many schools have tech directors without a teaching background... some of us out there tho who did. #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@skeeTX Agreed - unfortunately, that's the side that is harder for me to maintain. I think the tech side is just more concrete. #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Yes, someone can lead both. Not sure one can "do it all" in a hands-on way. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@theatlis agree with that.. need a team to support. When 1 does both its a more strategic role vs tactical. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:24 PM EDT

Q4: For those Tech folks out there - what do you really wish you could do in the summer? #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@MsAre @Learn21Tech #isedchat https://t.co/hCyXzPzlH0

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:25 PM EDT

For the non-tech folks in the chat.. Q4a: What would you like to see the technology team at your school do over the summer?#isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Important that tech leadership (whether ed tech or IT tech) is mission driven. If it's "just a job" then not leadership material #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Q4: Vacation... Ha! Maybe just spend some time on my own professional growth.#isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech A4: Read and play video games (please don't judge me...) #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan so true!! Going to #ISTE this year? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@K12Nest my school has a game design start up company... so we like games. ;) #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan I also feel recent studies comparing tech to paper etc are premature. Need more time. iPhone still young!!! #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@theatlis @Learn21Tech team approach seems natural but both need to understand each other IMO #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech PD! @MsATesta and I will lead some. Having teachers approach you for help is an awesome feeling #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Nope - somehow I figured out a way to spend all of my budget on other stuff :/ #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4: create/use MDM where I can monitor my Ss iPads more effectively #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:27 PM EDT

Q4a: Seriously, I wish they could get more rest. Spend time reading about what's on horizon. #Isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@skeeTX that sounds like a great task for the team to work on! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@EricAfterSchool that is lovely.. the former tech director in my loves that type of Ts support :) #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I believe they exist already but might be costly to change #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan Yes---I try to do all the reading that has piled up...#isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@skeeTX Seems like we should find the best case for each and use them like that instead of either/or. I'm a big book guy! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@K12Nest yep... its called EDGE - video games 4 girls by girls. Look at @robertabrandao tweets #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:30 PM EDT

No other wish list items for your #edtech or tech team? #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:30 PM EDT

I wish they can get everything they want to get done completed. With summer camps using the tech its a balancing act #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@MsATesta ugh yes.. summer camps.. I usually led camps for 4 weeks out of the summer since I also managed STEAM programming #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:31 PM EDT

I want the summer to go smoothly for them #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:32 PM EDT

If the tech world could slow down so I could catch my breathe that would be great but then it wouldn't be amazing #isedchat @Learn21Tech

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I run one in the MakerSpace for a week, and we have others that are STEM and Tech heavy #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:32 PM EDT

Honestly wish we could excite more Ts a/b tech. After year 3 of 1:1 iPad, I feel like we've lost momentum #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@MsAre what is on the horizon you are exploring? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@skeeTX how many tech integrator folks do you have? #isedchat

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I remember wishing to catch my breath...never a break... go right into summer programs and then all network upgrades. #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4. A broader sense of what Ts need, from English Ts to STEM Ts. #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@skeeTX Time for more training on creating with iPad. Sharing of what everyone does. Might spark the fire again ?#isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@MsAre that sounds super cool.. not even sure what that is... #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech 1 per division, but Ts need to be willing to integrate/explore/do something new! #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@MsATesta perhaps, but many seem as if they've had enough PD already. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@skeeTX perhaps part of eval? #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:35 PM EDT

BACK IN MYYYY DAYYY... we called it the Windows Death March. #isedchat https://t.co/AISkG4NBFe

lcarroll94 - Moderator May 19 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I remember wishing to catch my breath...never a break... go right into summer programs and then all network upgrades. #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@skeeTX I love hearing what others are doing that I never thought of. Never enough time in year to share! #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech yes, as long as we can have more accountability. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Q5: What summer workshops and professional development are available for school tech folks or Ts into tech? #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I'll keep you posted & share #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Lots of schools exploring VR as a new #EdTech focus.. #MakerSpaces as well #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:37 PM EDT

Pretty sure you have a long list Lisa! #isedchat https://t.co/i4ejNHbPih

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Q5: What summer workshops and professional development are available for school tech folks or Ts into tech? #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A5: We're rolling out Windows 10, so we'll be training that. We'll also have some "open labs" for anything folks want to learn. #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:38 PM EDT

Let me make this very clear... VR *will* impact edtech. You *will* need to be ready. It's not if but when. #isedchat https://t.co/GWdgwJxGoZ

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Lots of schools exploring VR as a new #EdTech focus.. #MakerSpaces as well #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@BethRheingold ha! I mean... if you are near or far from Philly look at #EAInnovates 4 #STEAM #MakerEd or #DesignThinking #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech I definitely want to get into VR. There's too much to explore. Setting goals really helps keep me focused #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@K12Nest tell us more... #EdTech #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@MsAre this will be in our new tech plan #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech VR is on my list , #MakerEd is always there, Fusion360 as well #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan open labs sounds cool.. neat idea #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:39 PM EDT

I want to go old school (sort of) & do a podcast radio show #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:40 PM EDT

What PD can you share @theatlis #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@BethRheingold LOVE this... I think @EClare_AHS is starting a podcast too.. can't wait to talk to her about it. #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Out of my T hat and into my gamer hat: I've seen the VR games coming and it's a small step from that to EdTEch. VR will change all #isedchat

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Q5: Ah - that kind of thing... ISTE, the Stem Think Tank & Conference at @HarpethHall #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@MsAre @MsATesta so we need to collaborate! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@EdTechTexan @HarpethHall always love the STEM Think Tank - miss it! #isedchat

iPublicPolicy May 19 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Is there a particular VR headset that you prefer (seems really good) for #EdTech? #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@iPublicPolicy we are starting with Google Cardboard... #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@K12Nest I worked for the military and we were doing this work 10+ years ago.. glad schools catching up! #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:44 PM EDT

For the Ts and As out there tonight.. How can the tech team support you as you return to school in the fall? #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:44 PM EDT

Right now too early to call. Lke VHS and beta, Samsung/Occulus/Sony all fighting it out, but one will win. #isedchat https://t.co/HupkSd4bZl

iPublicPolicy May 19 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Is there a particular VR headset that you prefer (seems really good) for #EdTech? #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @iPublicPolicy my son's 7th grade science class used them. #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@MsAre @BethRheingold is this part of making in the mornings #isedchat

EricAfterSchool May 19 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Easy: Get all the new Ss and Ts on the network and all set up promptly. #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Members have shared that they are implementing new LMS, O365, etc.Most interesting is building making into curriculum #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@EricAfterSchool so needed... have to get the info over to the tech team.. we often waited until 48 hours before and made it hard! #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

Totally @MsATesta & maybe @BethRheingold will be our first real guest!! #isedchat I made up a talk show one day while left unattended

theatlis May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@K12Nest Do you think it'll just be one? Or will the "flavors" stick and each have their own advocates? #isedchat

skeeTX May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

Tech can communicate better ways to create, connect, explore #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@theatlis trend showing increased growth in #makered still? #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@MsATesta @MsAre I was looking at BAM radio @BammyAwards #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Focusing on integration becomes more difficult as more toys become available, but that's the fun part, right? #isedchat

BethRheingold - Moderator May 19 @ 9:48 PM EDT

Gotta duck out to wrap up entertaining boarders tonight. Thanks @Learn21Tech ! #isedchat

MsATesta May 19 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech @theatlis I think so #makered gives different tech focus. Ideas come to life. #isedchat

Learn21Tech May 19 @ 9:50 PM EDT

Seems we are winding down... Thanks to all for joining this evening to talk tech! #isedchat

theatlis May 19 @ 9:50 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech Definitely--funny that it's getting "old" to some while others are just beginning. ATLIS2017 will have a playground #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:51 PM EDT

@Learn21Tech #isedchat thanks for moderating!!! Looking forward to sharing more as summer comes along! Good luck with end of year

EdTechTexan May 19 @ 9:53 PM EDT

Thank you all and thanks to @Learn21Tech for moderating!!! It's good to see you (virtually)! #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:53 PM EDT

What a great #isedchat tonight! Really enjoyed it and read a boatload of amazing inspiring tweets. Thank you all!

theatlis May 19 @ 9:56 PM EDT

Thanks all, esp @Learn21Tech! Goodnight! #isedchat

MsAre May 19 @ 9:57 PM EDT

How am I going to sleep after that awesome #isedchat

K12Nest May 19 @ 9:57 PM EDT

Because they all work with diff code, I think there will be one, maybe two for edu. My early pick: Occulus #isedchat https://t.co/zkNfo8PtYX

theatlis May 19 @ 9:46 PM EDT
