A3: just had a great. All w/ our ambassadors today most are tech leads. Inspire first and then lead. Build a mindset of go 4 it #Ditchbook

MickMack629 Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: usually the resistance comes from fear or uncertainty. Coaches have to earn the trust, and show we are just as vulnerable #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: We've got to really learn about their classrooms and lessons before suggesting what they should do. #DitchBook #TOSAchat

AnnabethK82 Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: Patience & Persistence. I'm a first year coach so still working on it. Give them something to chew on and gain small ground #ditchbook

sandyrotto Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

So true. There's no busy like classroom teacher busy, and as a coach, I never want to forget that. #ditchbook #TOSAchat

A3 Show them how tech can enhance and support what they already do. It's not another thing! #ditchbook

craigklement - Moderator Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: show them how tech can make their life easier. Work smarter, not harder #ditchbook

golliharsclass Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: as a T, don't patronize me. I may not be resistant I may be wary of effectiveness or readiness of my Ss for this activity #DitchBook

polonerd Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: I try to encourage them by walking the walk with them. I'll teach the first class w/ Ts support, then flip roles & support Ts #ditchbook

Jyoung1219 Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3: Meet them where they are, be purposeful, have shared vision, model, give resources, be patient. #ditchbook

SEANJFAHEY Nov 10 @ 10:20 PM EST

A3 Set goals, use baby steps. Use SAMR to help understand the use of technology. #ditchbook

ToddShriver Nov 10 @ 10:21 PM EST

#ditchbook A3. One step at a time. Teach about Docs, Slides etc. Try it, get good at it and build confidence from there forward!

emosier3 Nov 10 @ 10:21 PM EST

A3: You have to start small with patience and reassurance. Exact method I used to change vet T to go all paperless on Google! #ditchbook

rachelmarker Nov 10 @ 10:21 PM EST

A3 Don't give up! Build trust. Model often, even if just in staff room. And build relashe w admin who sets tech expectations. #Ditchbook

#ditchbook A3. Teachers can't be afraid to fail or ask questions. I rely on these groups to assist me in becoming a better coach.

A4 I called out Ts on this on day 1 of iPad training It takes practice. Explained that I dropped my 1st Comp Sci class #NotTechie #ditchbook

Jyoung1219 Nov 10 @ 10:27 PM EST

rachelmarker Nov 10 @ 10:27 PM EST

A4 Let's find some inspiration! Borrow and idea, and let's tweak it together. Creativity will grow; we all need practice. #Ditchbook

jghfoundation08 Nov 10 @ 10:27 PM EST

A3: Many times modeling for a teacher, if allowed, gives them a visual of how things can improve. #ditchbook
