katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:08 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin Sounds cool! What kind of science and what age group? #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:08 PM EDT

Q1: Which resources do you use when considering new tech for your classroom? #edtechbridge https://t.co/Vdrjf0w4tz

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:08 PM EDT

@PBJellyGames @MineGageEdu Hey Garrett! Huge fan of your work. Just discovered MineGage recently. #EdTechBridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:08 PM EDT

I teach game design/development. I wish I'd gotten my front yard landscaped, ridden horses more, made a game... #EdTechBridge

mzgrz Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

A1 I use my PLN and @edutopia the most. #EdTechBridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

We are working on games for 6th-8th grade that align to NGSS #edtechbridge

nogginfuel Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

@m_drez much appreciated! I started a publishing company @starpupilbooks - I look forward to nudging you on. #EdTechBridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

A1: My twitter PLN is probably my go to resource #wordofmouth , but also love @commonsensemedia #graphite #edtechbridge

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

Mark G, from NJ hopping in for this great topic! #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

+1 for @edutopia #edtechbridge https://t.co/wcrM98Wubu

mzgrz Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

A1 I use my PLN and @edutopia the most. #EdTechBridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:09 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @commonsensemedia Agree with both recommendations #edtechbridge

envirojer Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

A1 google plus communities have been a good source of helpful early users and trouble shooting #EdTechBridge

nogginfuel Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @m_drez thanks! #EdTechBridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

Stopping by intermittently on #edtechbridge while multitasking

Molly_Levitt Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

The PLN is always a great first step, though it's sometimes hard because they don't know the intricacies of your school/needs #EdTechBridge

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

A1: This year I hope to incorporate a lot of @Microsoft_EDU products w/ my Ss, esp @bbc_microbit #MIEEXpert #edtechbridge

PBJellyGames Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

@katyamuses Thanks Katya! It's been too long. With Tues nights Minecraftedu chats, Wed's are my chill night :D #EdTechBridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:10 PM EDT

Has anyone found a topic in science that just kind of screams "i need a game" to help explain this? #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:11 PM EDT

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:11 PM EDT

A1 Have heard great things about Graphite from @CommonSenseEd / @CommonSense #EdTechBridge

BcCotter Aug 31 @ 7:11 PM EDT

@katyamuses A1. Those that r engaging, interactive, cross Curricula, thought provoking, applicable to real life #edtechbridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:11 PM EDT

A1 I’ve learned of many great tools and products in #edtech and beyond from my Twitter pals, of course. ^_^ #edtechbridge

raspberryberet3 Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

Hey! Late to the party but I am here! #edtechbridge

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

A1 I use the EdSurge index/guide for reviews, Twitter to see new ideas and application, Conferences always help too. #EdTechBridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

A1 I have some other educators I talk to, Google search, https://t.co/M3fhlYD701, some Game Jam/Dev sites. #EdTechBridge

AlexVKluge Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @iwearthecrowns Time to fire up the VR rig dude :) #EdTechBridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

@raspberryberet3 Nice to see you, Shelly! Thanks for joining us at #edtechbridge tonight

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

@raspberryberet3 HELLO! #edtechbridge

Molly_Levitt Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

Does anyone find new tools in vendor halls? Or are they too overwhelming? #EdTechBridge

technolibrary Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

@katyamuses @mr_isaacs A1: Twitter recs from colleagues; @aasl list of best new tools, @sljournal tweets #EdTechBridge

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs Graphite is great! #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@m_drez @edsurge is great for sure! #edtechbridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

A1 Newsletters from EdSurge, EdWeek and Education Dive are also helpful for updates and new tools. #edtechbridge

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

A1: Cont - I will try any tech once, #trialbyfire. I learn a lot about new tech through word of mouth, like Twitter. #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

I find that most vendors lack a space to play sufficiently with the new tech #edtechbridge

envirojer Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

Peppered moth simulation game ! https://t.co/IPHC8Qfokn #EdTechBridge https://t.co/rJPTRePhJH

@mr_isaacs @m_drez @edsurge Thank you :) #EdTechBridge

EdSurgConcierge Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @m_drez @edsurge Thank you :) #EdTechBridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @MGrundel @bbc_microbit @skype With G Hangouot going down, do you think @skypeclassroom will see an upswing? #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@AlexVKluge @mr_isaacs @iwearthecrowns Yaaaas! Set it up on my desk just in time to fire it up and let it update... #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin I work on GameUp https://t.co/qiCVPTeKA0 lots sci topics on brainpop don't have games aligned to them yet #edtechbridge

nogginfuel Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin what about a heavy metal music game w/ periodic elements tie in? 🎶🎶🎶 #EdTechBridge

raspberryberet3 Aug 31 @ 7:13 PM EDT

Thanks! I've been pretty quiet this summer! #EdTechBridge https://t.co/Lx0eg6N0Uq

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:12 PM EDT

@raspberryberet3 Nice to see you, Shelly! Thanks for joining us at #edtechbridge tonight

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@Molly_Levitt Occasionally. I don't usually find stuff that fits my needs in vendor halls tho. #EdTechBridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@Molly_Levitt such a great question - certainly yes and certainly yes :) #edtechbridge

NealManegold Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

A1: I have children, I use annoying my #PLN to find out esp. apps for the little ones #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@Molly_Levitt This is a good question. I have found a new tool once or twice in vendor halls, but it's rare #edtechbridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@m_drez Yes, Guides | EdSurge https://t.co/dLebETylYN is awesome #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

i think its hard to create meaningful connections, even with early adopters, in vendor halls #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

you kind of have to let people be willing to explore the tech, but it takes time usually #edtechbridge

BcCotter Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

Welcome to all chiming in. Late or not you're here and that's what matters 😊 #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@katyamuses @aryah_fradkin a possible #EdTechBridge collaboration in the works, perhaps :)

Molly_Levitt Aug 31 @ 7:14 PM EDT

@katyamuses I always wondered if it was because I was more introverted and just got overwhelmed! #EdTechBridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

A1 I also try to just download and play with it. A lot. On different computers and OSs if I can. #EdTechBridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

In a minute . . Q2! #edtechbridge

NealManegold Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

A0? And Neal, I work at @PlayCraftLearn & keep some of these #PLN folks in order #edtechbridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin Totally agree. We had self-service stations at ISTE in addition to group sessions to try to remedy this problem #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

@Molly_Levitt I find that I end up going to booths where I already know the product/ppl working #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin It is because it's such a quick interaction, however, I have had some meaningful chats in vendor halls #edtechbridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:15 PM EDT

@katyamuses @aryah_fradkin What is the pricing structure now for https://t.co/yD8F0zNH8B #EdTechBridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

@NealManegold @PlayCraftLearn NEAL!!!! #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

Q2: How can edtech co's support you+stakeholders in evaluating the need 4 their product in yr school? #edtechbridge https://t.co/MML46JJGYU

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

@JudyArzt @mr_isaacs @Skype @SkypeClassroom I love Skype, always preferred it over GHO for communicating w/ Ed & Experts #edtechbridge

AlexVKluge Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

@Molly_Levitt Yep - planning on being there. Anyone up for coffee? #EdTechBridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

@JudyArzt @aryah_fradkin The whole games library is free to use. Most movies and other topic resources are subscription #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

A2. I was told to make a "convince your prince" 1pager to help Ts advocate for a tool they like to their principal #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

it seems to me like the biggest thing missing from edtech companies is the desire for teacher/student feedback #edtechbridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

A1 as always, it's easier to try and implement if it's free. I also like to see supportive community (forums etc) #EdTechBridge

mzgrz Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

It's worth it! #EdTechBridge https://t.co/5Nx6gnP95u

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:16 PM EDT

@JudyArzt @aryah_fradkin The whole games library is free to use. Most movies and other topic resources are subscription #edtechbridge

Molly_Levitt Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

@AlexVKluge Awesome! Looking forward to connecting IRL :) #EdTechBridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

A1: @katyamuses One company that has done an excellent job w/ that is @Buncee #EdTechBridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:17 PM EDT

A2: room for discussion about stakeholder needs and the value educators and others add is an important conversation #edtechbridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

@katyamuses I guess I have it easy there. If I say I need it, and it's within budget, I'm usually ok. #EdTechBridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

A2 It sounds like common sense, but many #edtech cos don’t actually heed the advice of their users. Kinda silly if you ask me. #edtechbridge

theipodteacher Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

Love the companies that have focus groups and ambassador programs to listen to feedback. @Flocabulary @BookCreatorApp #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

i think we need a constant feedback loop between current T's and the companies #edtechbridge

nogginfuel Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

A2. I think some products need longer trial / testing / free / dev periods #EdTechBridge

NealManegold Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

A2 On the product side a standard RFP eval process would be RADICAL or a universal rubric #edtechbridge https://t.co/97YEgP6G3P

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

Woot, we have a Flocab MC in the #edtechbridge house tonight! Thanks for joining, Jon :D https://t.co/q3SfBCUCQ7

theipodteacher Aug 31 @ 7:18 PM EDT

Love the companies that have focus groups and ambassador programs to listen to feedback. @Flocabulary @BookCreatorApp #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

love flocabulary, talk about bringing "cool" to the classroom! #edtechbridge

EdSurgConcierge Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

A2: You really need to help the company understand your schools specific needs, having that convo before buying #EdTechBridge

raspberryberet3 Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

A2: start with the school goals; does criteria match & if not can produce be made better to do so? #edtechbridge

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

Honestly, the support that I have seen in startup edtech companies is phenomenal, great customer service! So responsive! #edtechbridge

theipodteacher Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

@edtechjam @Flocabulary @BookCreatorApp Happy to drop as many cents as I can. #EdTechBridge

AlexVKluge Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

A2 From the company side - don't be shy about letting us know what works, and what doesn't. 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘺. #EdTechBridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:19 PM EDT

yeah i always tell T's when i talk to them to be brutally honest #edtechbridge

raspberryberet3 Aug 31 @ 7:20 PM EDT

A2: provide trial runs & allow for dialogue to happen b/w two, need staff & Ss feedback. #edtechbridge

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:20 PM EDT

A2 Ask for feedback and build off it. Offer quality, personal support. @CueThink @HstryOrg @Seesaw are walking the walk IMO #EdTechBridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:20 PM EDT

S feedback is missing even more than t...especially important in the digital age of the independent learner #edtechbridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:20 PM EDT

@mr_isaacs @MGrundel @bbc_microbit Have you tried YouTube Live? #EdTechBridge

PBJellyGames Aug 31 @ 7:20 PM EDT

A2 - It made sense for us to hire Teachers to help design our products. Gave us an edge in making a tool that adds value #EdTechBridge

EdSurgConcierge Aug 31 @ 7:21 PM EDT

One way is to really get clear on your needs and think it through, this guide can help: https://t.co/MdwFqWNgsN #EdTechBridge

MGrundel Aug 31 @ 7:21 PM EDT

#Edtech like @classcraftgame @ClassDojo @brainpop, @ProdigyGame @CodeCombat have been great in handling all of my needs! #edtechbridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:21 PM EDT

@NealManegold Possibly! I can speak from experience on the vendor side it’s not always the case. :( Not at Flocab HQ, though! #edtechbridge

theASIDEblog Aug 31 @ 7:21 PM EDT

We try to integrate new tech that makes the most sense for the unit, project, etc. Sometimes, new is not necessary. #EdTechBridge

TTMobile_us Aug 31 @ 7:22 PM EDT

#EdTechBridge is now trending in USA, ranking 43

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:22 PM EDT

@edtechjam Maybe these don't stay relevant as long. I'm on the other side of things though :) #EdTechBridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:22 PM EDT

personalizing the tech experience i think is big..making each person count despite the size of the company #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:23 PM EDT

In a minute . . Q3! #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:23 PM EDT

@NealManegold @PlayCraftLearn couldn't get Sample in a jar out of my head for a while "I was foggy rather groggy, ..." #EdTechBridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:23 PM EDT

@SimBadd64 @NealManegold @PlayCraftLearn hah - no, we just go til the end of June... #edtechbridge

BcCotter Aug 31 @ 7:23 PM EDT

A2 Listen to Ts, Ss Ps policy makers. Afford them opportunity to transpose prob to creative, realistic solution in everyday #edtechbridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:23 PM EDT

Because there are many good free apps, sometimes hard to get schools to go w/ subscriptions #EdTechBridge

AlexVKluge Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

@edtechjam @NealManegold It's a balancing act. There are many users with many views, they can't follow them all. #EdTechBridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

Q3: If you were to make an edtech evaluation checklist, what would be at the top of your list? why? #edtechbridge https://t.co/ENORmU9A9Z

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

given the choice, i would choose a lower quality tech with better customer service over better tech with the opposite #edtechbridge

m_drez Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

@MGrundel Timely responses from startups are great. Sets them apart. #EdTechBridge

edtechjam Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

@AlexVKluge @NealManegold Absolutely—and that can often be the hardest part of it all… #edtechbridge

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:24 PM EDT

personal feel, reliability, connectivity, cost #edtechbridge

katyamuses Aug 31 @ 7:25 PM EDT

A3: 1. ease of use, 2. support! responsive team who answers Ts quickly is necessary #edtechbridge

BcCotter Aug 31 @ 7:25 PM EDT

@AlexVKluge these are the companies I gravitate to. Those willing to work with me. #edtechbridge

BlueAppaloosa Aug 31 @ 7:25 PM EDT

A1 I have an evaluation checklist. 1 is cross-platform compatibility (2 is free for students to have at home,) #EdTechBridge

Hello #EdTechBridge! Cathy, edtech specialist in NYC, wife of @mr_isaacs

aryah_fradkin Aug 31 @ 7:25 PM EDT

i wish i could stay on longer but alas i got to put my daddy hat back on..look forward to seeing you all on next weeks chat! #edtechbridge

NealManegold Aug 31 @ 7:26 PM EDT

A3 Inclusive design, platform agnostic, privacy & security, "known" company, Ts on the core team #EdTechBridge

theASIDEblog Aug 31 @ 7:26 PM EDT

Most importantly, new tech needs a purpose. It shouldn't be used just because it's billed as the latest and greatest. #EdTechBridge

ShanaVWhite Aug 31 @ 7:26 PM EDT

A1: Cost. Ability to use across multiple content areas. Need. Will it help students learn. #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:26 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin +1 to @flocabulary Speaking of which, #whereshuddy @hudmasterflex #edtechbridge

NealManegold Aug 31 @ 7:26 PM EDT

@MGrundel very true - and the mission of #EdTechBridge is to help people realize that!

nogginfuel Aug 31 @ 7:27 PM EDT

A3. Easy to implement, solves an actual problem, gets S's more engaged, easy 2 send feedback to company. #EdTechBridge

JudyArzt Aug 31 @ 7:27 PM EDT

@ShanaVWhite And how long we can predict the app will be around in this shifting world of tech #EdTechBridge

DennisDill Aug 31 @ 7:27 PM EDT

A3 Who will use it? Is it useful for the person or the curriculum? What works for one may not work for another #edtechbridge

mr_isaacs - Moderator Aug 31 @ 7:27 PM EDT

@aryah_fradkin Great point and one we are very sensitive too - can't wait til school starts and my Ss join the discussion! #edtechbridge

ShanaVWhite Aug 31 @ 7:27 PM EDT

A2: If I want your product I will let you know. Listen more, less sales mentality. Ultimately, I want what's best for all Ss. #edtechbridge
