Q1: How do you define the term "reluctant learner"? #ADEchat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:03 PM EDT

Interested to learn more about how to engage those reluctant learners.. I’ve got plenty! #ADEchat Mia ELA, Tech Integrator Maine

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:03 PM EDT

@WiredEducator Welcome Kelly #ADEChat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:03 PM EDT

Nancy here from Ottawa.. Looking forward to the conversation #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:04 PM EDT

Hi #adechat! Casey - English dept. chair @Stringtheoryedu in Philadelphia. Excited to chat with you all tonight!

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:04 PM EDT

@nancykawaja Welcome Nancy #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:04 PM EDT

A1 Ss can be closed, not interested, afraid, passive, unsure.. all need to find inspiration #ADEchat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:04 PM EDT

A1 A reluctant learn doesn't persevere. HUGE problem in math classrooms. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@cicohen Welcome Casey #Adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:05 PM EDT

Hey friends! Kristin from #Chicago popping in for a bit after a HOT day at school #adechat Great to be here!

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:05 PM EDT

A1: I remember being a reluctant learner. I was afraid to speak up for fear of being wrong or asking "stupid" questions. #ADEChat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

A1: #ADEchat: So many varieties: I’d say: Learners that haven’t made a personal connection yet! Haven’t found “Why?” https://t.co/tqRn8xKQbR

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:03 PM EDT

Q1: How do you define the term "reluctant learner"? #ADEchat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@msmathnerd Follow through can be such an issue with reluctant learners. #ADEChat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@MiaLMorrison a1: and I think a lot of it comes from a fear of being wrong or failing #adechat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

Hi, friend! @nancykawaja #adechat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@cicohen @Stringtheoryedu Glad you could make it! #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@Mrreiff Yes! Especially when they lack confidence! That's another huge part of it. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@WiredEducator So true. It’s hard to reach Ss that haven’t made it to “why?” yet. #ADEChat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

A1: reluctant can mean so muc... an issue w/access, fear of failure, lack of interest, motivation - seeing relevance, relationship #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:06 PM EDT

@KristinZiemke Hey there! HOT is right - even in Maine #ADEchat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@nancykawaja LOVE the issue with access part! #adechat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@Mrreiff Hi there, @tina_zita popping in for a bit. I’m an Ed Tech coach from Toronto, Ontario. #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@nancykawaja Hi there Nancy - so nice you’re with us #ADEchat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@WiredEducator KELLY! Glad we have your voice here #ADEchat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

A1 Reluctant learners have lots inside of them that they keep to themselves bc for some reason they are hesitant to share w/ class #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:07 PM EDT

@tina_zita Welcome to #ADEchat Tina

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:08 PM EDT

@tina_zita @Mrreiff Welcome, Tina! #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:08 PM EDT

@nancykawaja Agreed. Tonight we’ll discuss tools and methods for battling these issues #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:08 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec Hi Jenny! So happy to be here! #adechat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:08 PM EDT

#ADEchat My building is 105 years old with no air conditioning. The heat index was over 100. Reluctant Learner Index = Very high. Rapport!

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:09 PM EDT

Q2 coming up in 1 minute.... #ADEChat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@cicohen can also boil down to bullying. Kids can be mean and cause others to turn inward. #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@WiredEducator right there with you my friend. I am toast. #adechat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:09 PM EDT

@msmathnerd if you can't access curriculum reluctance is a strategy or a by-product #adechat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:09 PM EDT

Hi #adechat Letty, Kindegarten Tt from Ca.

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

Q2: Does a "class participation grade" unfairly hurt introverted students? #ADEchat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

How can we help support reluctant learners? Come to #ADEChat to discuss! #edtech #gafe #edchat

JeremyShorr Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

Hello #ADEchat - I'm Jeremy. I'm a relatively nice guy. Also #STEM and #FabLab and consulting and an unhealthy amount of Pokemon Go

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@nancykawaja @msmathnerd I always say that reluctance isn’t the illness, it’s just a symptom of a bigger issue #ADEChat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@WiredEducator it’s always interesting to see S we label ‘reluctant learners’ sharing their personal learning (e.g. Minecraft) #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@MsbatistaL Howdy Letty. Welcome to #ADEChat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:10 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @nancykawaja LOVE! #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@WiredEducator 😳 I'll never complain about my room temperature again! #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2 I feel as though class participation is really more than just volunteering or sharing answers, so no. #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2 Participation is such a low bar it hurts EVERY type of student, in my opinion. Much prefer we value collaboration. #adechat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2:depends on what is construed as participation. There are many tools that allow kids to participate without speaking @TodaysMeet #adechat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

#ADEchat I found the book “Teach Like a PIRATE” by @burgessdave great for connecting reluctant learners. Highly recommend.

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

@JeremyShorr Welcome Jeremy. Glad you could take time off from Pokemon Go to join #ADEChat

MrsKemper Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A1: Reluctant learners ... possibly haven't experienced real learning of real content in real contexts - so hesitant #adechat

JeremyShorr Sep 6 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A2 if you're teaching a course on class participation, no. If you're not, why are you measuring it. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec @KristinZiemke Absolutely. Class participation goes beyond simply hand raising & answering questions. #ADEChat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:12 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec and that is so sad to see when kids feel like they cannot express themselves. #adechat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1 in kinder it's the Ss who walks away or gets upset when expected to complete a task #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:13 PM EDT

@jeremyshorr Yet so many Tchrs force reluctant Ss to participate with the threat of a “class participation” grade #ADEChat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:13 PM EDT

Yes and 1000% #adechat https://t.co/LqCteIN9nt

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2 Participation is such a low bar it hurts EVERY type of student, in my opinion. Much prefer we value collaboration. #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2 What are some other forms of participation people use? I love jigsaw activities #adechat

JeremyShorr Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@Mrreiff I think, maybe, those teachers might be jerks... or crabby about something. #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2 It depends on how you define participation and what options you offer #ADEchat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

#ADEChat A2: https://t.co/IvejcAZkxW

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@msmathnerd I’d agree. We have moved to triangulation of data here in Ontario so it can help stay away from a prez mark #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:14 PM EDT

@Mrreiff a2: I have so many opinions here-shyness shouldn't cause a low grade if student knows content #adechat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @JennyGrabiec @KristinZiemke & for some w/accommodations processing takes TIMES... Do we wait to hear their voice? #adechat

MrsKemper Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

Right on, @KristinZiemke! Collaboration, Contribution, Understanding > participation for a check mark. #adechat https://t.co/6e3M6Mvka0

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:11 PM EDT

A2 Participation is such a low bar it hurts EVERY type of student, in my opinion. Much prefer we value collaboration. #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@WiredEducator Some Ss do not have that type of personality even if they have lots of ideas #ADEchat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@MiaLMorrison So true. Let’s not define participation as“Did you raise your hand and talk?”Lots of other ways to measure and assess #ADEChat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

hello #ADEchat Ann here, late to the party! Just got home with Chinese takeout & joining in late!

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:15 PM EDT

@MsbatistaL I'll never forget the time I finally spoke up in Algebra class & got the answer right! I never shut up after that. lol #adechat

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

Late to the game -- Rebecca, Charleston WV art specialist #adechat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec @TodaysMeet we found that once with blogging. A different group of learners found an avenue to participate. #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

AND are we giving opportunity to respond whole group, small group, 1 on 1 & a digital response? #adechat @nancykawaja @Mrreiff @JennyGrabiec

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

#ADEchat: A2 have found some in-class, yet on-line discussions, like Edmodo thread, etc. Great for shy/reluctant learners to have a voice.

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@annkozma723 Welcome Ann. #ADEChat pairs nicely with Chinese take out.

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@annkozma723 never too late! Glad you made it. #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A2: Perhaps it’s more about contribution; it’s about more than what students say. It’s how they respond, react, and build on ideas. #adechat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

#ADEchat A2: And… I found having a microphone for my students “empowering”. You’d be surprised that some shy/quiet/reluctant Ss like a mic.

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@beccarecco hi! #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@WiredEducator Sometimes Ss are much more relaxed with written responses than with spontaneous, in-class Q & A. #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@annkozma723 Yum! #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:17 PM EDT

@tina_zita Blogging and other creative expression - speaking aloud in front of class is not the only way to participate! #ADEchat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @JennyGrabiec @MiaLMorrison looking for questions...? #ADEchat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@WiredEducator I think they also like having a prop. Whether it be Google slides or an eBook they've made to show their learning. #ADEchat

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A1 I prefer "student needing a little confidence" #adechat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A2 yes and no, Ts need 2 prepare Ss 4 real world, It's not fair 2 d group but that's teaching we need 2 teach Ss how 2 collaborate #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Ss might cause more waves and thoughts if they CREATE #adechat https://t.co/FjPcsf9giZ

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @JennyGrabiec @MiaLMorrison looking for questions...? #ADEchat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@annkozma723 @Mrreiff @JennyGrabiec @MiaLMorrison Q2: Does a "class participation grade" unfairly hurt introverted students? #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Q3: How can we redefine class participation so that all students can demonstrate understanding? #ADEChat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:20 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @WiredEducator Written and other forms of expression. Some Ss are better behind a camera lens than holding a pen #ADEchat

EduGladiators Sep 6 @ 9:20 PM EDT

#EduGladiators is BACK w/@mccoyderek leading convo #growthmindset #adechat #CSISDchat #CTEchat #personalizedpd https://t.co/dM9x1vkJHY

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A1 reluctant to engage or participate, but could be for various reasons, not aways related to ability #ADEchat https://t.co/47S2W9F6yB

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:03 PM EDT

Q1: How do you define the term "reluctant learner"? #ADEchat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: allow for Ss to show what they know, how they know to show. #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: Give options to achieving this? #adechat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

@Mrreiff I see it as an active member of a learning community. I can prompt, provoke and extend learning with out saying a word #adechat

JeremyShorr Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3 put proof of mastery in Ss hands. Create mastery rubrics that can be applied to evidence in any form. Video, minecraft, whatever #adechat

Sharon_Drummond Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A2 I struggle with participation grade because it doesn't show whether students know and understand content #adechat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

#ADEchat Classroom design the physical and atmosphere are key elements to reaching reluctant/shy Ss. Think fish bowl. Create a culture.

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A2 -- I don't do it. Too vague to be consistent and meaningful. #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3 Give Ss choice how they express understanding and how they share #ADEchat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: Class participation cannot and should not be defined by one behavior or skill. Give options. Students need voice AND choice. #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: Giving Ss different options to participate. Don't think of participation in the traditional sense. Think outside the box #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@nancykawaja that is my favorite way to assess - show me what you know and create something! Love the creativity and variety #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec So true. If we give our Ss choice in assessment, maybe we should give them choice in participation. #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A3 Organize for small group instruction & collaboration, invite all Ss to be classroom specialist & differentiate response options #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A2: if class participation = only grade, then yes. Look for mult measures & provide OPTIONS for Ss to prove understanding. #ADEchat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

Agreed that it can take time to be comfortable about sharing, ease transition by letting Ss choose their mode #ADEchat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

I would be interested to see what Ss say should be assessed for participation. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @nancykawaja I always tell my Ss, just show me that you “get it.” You choose the method. #ADEchat.

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A3 Choice, choice, choice. Provide options for Ss to show what they know i.e. reflection video, blog, song, written book, mural #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @nancykawaja When we tell Ss this, it is amazing with what they come up with! #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@JeremyShorr we do this and have kids post to a portfolio over the year so they can see their own growth and improvement #adechat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 w iPads the possibilities are endless, my favorite has got to be photography, my kindergarten Ss discover a non verbal Lang. #adechat

Sharon_Drummond Sep 6 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3 we need to give all learners multiple ways to share their thinking in our classrooms and value all of those methods #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:24 PM EDT

@msmathnerd In some classes in my school, participation counts for up to 30% of the Ss grade.What is a student is an introvert? #ADEchat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:25 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @msmathnerd I think that can make sense ONLY if Ss are given a choice on HOW they participate #ADEchat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 give choice, options & mult pathways for Ss to show understanding; not all Ss fit into the same box #adechat https://t.co/5ANSnsFecE

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Q3: How can we redefine class participation so that all students can demonstrate understanding? #ADEChat

Sharon_Drummond Sep 6 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A3 (part 2) but also help students to become more comfortable sharing in new and less comfortable ways #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:26 PM EDT

@Sharon_Drummond Completely agree - Ss learn skills of communication when it is diverse and self chosen #ADEchat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@mialmorrison @msmathnerd Absolutely,but too often participation is measured by, “did you raise your hand and talk in class today?” #ADEChat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A3 Offer collaborative projects where Ss can take on different responsibilities to highlight their strengths #ADEchat

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A3 -- How do students define learning? What does it look like for each student? Let students work how they work best. #adechat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @msmathnerd or has a learning disability and cannot express is or her speech well? That is sad. #adechat

MrsKemper Sep 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A3: Thinking about accessibility to content...providing a means for all students to demonstrate what they know-not what they don't. #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@JeremyShorr YES! The learning objective / goal is shared but the path is personalized #ADEchat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:29 PM EDT

always think outside the box... #adechat https://t.co/pyrGybF8Xh

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: Giving Ss different options to participate. Don't think of participation in the traditional sense. Think outside the box #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @msmathnerd that makes me sad-Ss have so many different backgrounds/reasons for not feeling confident enough to speak up #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:29 PM EDT

A3 Include self assessment and reflection as part of a contribution grade - so Ss can offer input on what and how they contributed. #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:29 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @Mrreiff Heck! I still get nervous in front of a ton of Ss! #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Q4 What role can tech play in reducing anxiety in shy & reluctant learners? #ADEChat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

we empower our scholars this way. we don't do everything cookie cutter...why should they? #adechat @bbucktech @jdeinhammer @nancykawaja

mrdulberger Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @MiaLMorrison @msmathnerd #ADEchat - Socratic seminars or fish bowl discussions are great remedy for this

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

@annkozma723 @bbucktech or think like there is no box. ;) #adechat

Sharon_Drummond Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

This is a great way of putting it #ADEchat https://t.co/W2aA2ajaB8

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:28 PM EDT

@JeremyShorr YES! The learning objective / goal is shared but the path is personalized #ADEchat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@cicohen Self reflection is so important! #adechat

JennyGrabiec Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @Mrreiff @msmathnerd we can't forget second language learners. That is another huge factor. #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A4 Tech provides EVERYONE a voice in the room. Even the quietest learners as kids use new format to share, collaborate & respond #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec @annkozma723 I like it but, it might scare others if I take away their box! #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A4: Avatar apps such as @tellagami and @iFunFace allow Ss to participate with no risk of embarrassment #ADEChat

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A4 -- tech allows for Ss to collaborate in many different ways, as well as document their work process. #ADEChat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@JennyGrabiec YES! that's it!!! no box... I will NOT limit my students! @bbucktech #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@annkozma723 @jdeinhammer @nancykawaja Because it is comfortable, time to push them out of their comfort zones! #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A4a Tech also allows kids an easy “do-over” if they mess up and lowers the stakes for the 1 time presentation in front of the class #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@msmathnerd Love bitmojis! I plan on using them with my Romeo & Juliet lessons this year #ADEChat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@cicohen student reflection of work is always a part of an assessment in my class - you learn so much about them #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer And they learn a lot about themselves too! #ADEchat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4 Ts can teach Ss how 2 document their own learning w tech, it allows Ss to reflect on strengths and weaknesses in private or w Tt #ADEchat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

A4: Tech gives Ss the ability to chose how to show what they know and how to be creative with their knowledge and understanding. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:33 PM EDT

@jdeinhammer @cicohen What are some of your favorite tools for student reflection? This year all my 9th grade Ss will keep a blog #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@bbucktech I'm here to help Ts see endless possibility, empower Ss w a digital tool & make the world a better place @JennyGrabiec #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @msmathnerd Love this! #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A4 Tech expands and enhances the choices for expression, collaboration, and respond #ADEchat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A4b Tech invites Ss to speak, write, draw, record,film what they learned; maximized time on instruction as many can share at a time #adechat

irishteacher6 Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

Jumping in late from Iowa. Interesting chat! The book Quiet by Susan Cain should be on every T's list. #ADEChat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:34 PM EDT

I think one of the biggest pieces is extending the learning past our constraints of place and time #adechat https://t.co/gLo2Z8BeWc

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:30 PM EDT

Q4 What role can tech play in reducing anxiety in shy & reluctant learners? #ADEChat

askMsQ Sep 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

A4: these ideas remind Ts as well that learning never ends. creating spaces can allow reluctant or hesitant Ts to learn new tools #adechat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@Mrreiff all students have a portfolio on https://t.co/uS18lQztQf - they reflect and post on portfolio with project #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:35 PM EDT

@tina_zita So true. Thats the beauty or @iTunesU I can provide my Ss with access to class material anytime, anywhere #ADEChat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A4 Tech is great for "silent' conversations. #adechat

bbucktech Sep 6 @ 9:36 PM EDT

And YOU are doing that! Amazing lady right here! @annkozma723 #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@msmathnerd Totally. I’ve used TodaysMeet for “silent seminars” Every Ss participates, not just the vocal ones. #ADEChat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@KristinZiemke And it extends the learning beyond the four walls as well as class period #ADEchat

irishteacher6 Sep 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@KristinZiemke some students are terrified of presenting alone in front of others. Tech is such a great option! #ADEChat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@Mrreiff everyone gets an equal opportunity. Answer garden is great too! #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A4: I always enjoy this quote via @cybraryman1. Plus, with choice, Ss learn to amplify their own voice. #adechat https://t.co/cNV7pgNpuB

@irishteacher6 @KristinZiemke Give those same Ss an avatar app like @tellagami and they’ll thrive. They can present with no risk #ADEChat

johnccarver Sep 6 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@bbucktech aww, thanks friend! the feeling is mutual! #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@Mrreiff also like to let Ss select how to reflect - could be recorded in GarageBand, filmed in iMovie, typed in a writing app... #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@tina_zita @Mrreiff Just make sure you have an ideally class-- this backfired one day :( #adechat

KristinZiemke Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

I learned this from YOU @Mrreiff! Such a great differentiation piece for Ss who may struggle to share #adechat https://t.co/j8bNEmt2WR

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@irishteacher6 @KristinZiemke Give those same Ss an avatar app like @tellagami and they’ll thrive. They can present with no risk #ADEChat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@cicohen @Mrreiff Yes - develops creativity and self awareness #ADEchat

irishteacher6 Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@Mrreiff @KristinZiemke @tellagami I'll look into that! Thanks! #ADEchat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@cicohen Love doing confessional-like reflections. Ss think they’re on a reality show. #adechat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

A4: tools can allow access which can allow a student to succeed = positive experience, reinforcement = relationship, motivation. #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:39 PM EDT

A4: Tech also facilitates collaboration, which may make a reluctant learner more comfortable sharing ideas. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:40 PM EDT

Q5 What are some other tools that you have used to engage otherwise unengaged students? #ADEChat

nancykawaja Sep 6 @ 9:40 PM EDT

A4: simply, it's just another tool that we have now to share learning, our story. For some it's essential, for others it's choice. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@cicohen YES! Shy & reluctant students are more likely to participate if they know theyre not in it alone #ADEChat

johnccarver Sep 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

#ADEchat #TnEdChat #iaedchat #FutureReady @JABracamontes This is important! https://t.co/wfdAbYtS0P

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@tina_zita @Mrreiff I will now! #adechat

beccarecco Sep 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

A5 Student choice, flexible learning spaces, and an art makerspace. Voice and choice!!! #ADEChat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@Mrreiff Yes! Love this idea! #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@Mrreiff used @tellagami w a non-English S years ago & she THRIVED when using her authentic voice @irishteacher6 @KristinZiemke #adechat

MiaLMorrison Sep 6 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5 Photography for sure to open the gateway to more communication and engagement. #ADEchat Once they get comfortable start adding words

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: Explain Everything allows students to participate on their terms, not mine. #ADEChat

johnccarver Sep 6 @ 9:42 PM EDT

#ADEchat #TnEdChat #iaedchat #FutureReady @JABracamontes Some folks think “powerpoint” is “cutting edge” use of TECH https://t.co/0acQKNWDte

askMsQ Sep 6 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: top 2 are definitely @Seesaw and @nearpod both provide so many strategies for different situations #adechat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@Mrreiff use tools the kids love. Their confidence comes through and can often change the experience #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A5 I LOVE @AdobeSpark videos! Allows for all Ss to share their voice w others at all levels of learning. #adechat https://t.co/EY4VUmDxR5

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A5: Having Ss communicate using social media tools they use out of class to connect to class content and material. #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

Chatterpix is a great tool for giving shy learners a voice #ADEChat

jdeinhammer Sep 6 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@Mrreiff a5: fun games-quizlet, quizzizz,kahoot-but also differentiation-find out what Ss are good at & use it-build confidence #adechat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@msmathnerd @Mrreiff just add your email towards the end and it will let you delete entries #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@nancykawaja It’s the swiss army knife of apps. #adechat

msmathnerd Sep 6 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5 I love ShowMe as a free option, but I love Adobe Voice. @cicohen will agree with me on that! #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:44 PM EDT

@annkozma723 Recently discovered @AdobeSpark and its definitely going in the toolbox. #adechat

cicohen Sep 6 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5 Backchannels are fun - students feel like they are holding somewhat private conversations even though its public! #ADEchat

tina_zita Sep 6 @ 9:45 PM EDT

@annkozma723 @Mrreiff @irishteacher6 @KristinZiemke we did something similar with Tiny Tap as we could co-create a dual lang exp #adechat

annkozma723 Sep 6 @ 9:46 PM EDT

@Mrreiff you will LOVE @AdobeSpark It's a great addition to the toolbox! #adechat

Sharon_Drummond Sep 6 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A5 it's a silly one, but Sock Puppets app is great because of goofy voices and allows for conversation between puppets #adechat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:48 PM EDT

Q6 coming up in a moment #ADEChat

Mrreiff Sep 6 @ 9:48 PM EDT

Q6 Share your favorite win. Describe a project that pulled a student out of his/her shell? #ADEChat

MsbatistaL Sep 6 @ 9:50 PM EDT

A5 what I've observed is that those reluctant Ss benefit from multi-sensory activities healthy balance of tech/hands on design #adechat

WiredEducator Sep 6 @ 9:50 PM EDT

#ADEchat I like the way @cicohen is rocking multiple social media apps on this chat. Winner!
