We welcome all educators to join #AppleEDUchat every Tuesday. Our ADEs host chats from both Europe and the Americas with an incredible lineup of topics to spark conversation. Share your ideas & stories and connect with this global community. Join at 6pm PST or 9pm EST.
Intros 1st, #AppleEDUchat! What's YOUR story? Who are you? Where you from? What's your role? Share one thing you're super pumped about to kick off this school year!
Welcome to #AppleEDUchat YES! Time to reconnect, share & learn with aweseome EDUinnovators. Kicking off the season @MisterCMaine & @145Lewis. Excited to talk nurturing #StuCreativity since Every Student Has a Story to Tell #StuVoice
We love seeing all the creative ways educators are using the book feature Pages. Share your favorite projects, lessons, and activities with the #AppleEDUchat community, and be sure to show off real examples using #PagesBookChallenge. @MisterCMaine
Good evening. I am currently an elementary education major at the University of Oklahoma. I have created books with a student I tutor, but using pages would have made the activity better because she would have been more engaged with the technology. #AppleEDUchat

A1: When a lesson goes sideways, solicit student feedback about what didn’t work. Don’t be afraid to show your disappointment, thank them for their courage, incorporate it, & point out how they were heard. Rewarding risk goes a long way towards establishing culture #AppleEDUchat
Q1 : Every student has a story to tell.… and it requires vulnerability. How are you (or might you) using multimedia to amplify student voice and build acceptance within a community? How are you nurturing a culture so students feel safe sharing? #AppleEDUchat
Hello, Drew here, from Fairhaven, MA. I teach a media production program at Fairhaven High School. I love empowering students to utilize technology to communicate their powerful voices with the world. #appleeduchat
A1 We use multimedia to share, share, share! Creating a habit and normalcy around sharing helps all@student a feel comfortable sharing, because that’s just what we do! My favorite is to create animated comics to tell stories. #AppleEDUchat
a1) I am hoping that our future teachers are learning tools that they could allow students to do different kinds of projects - maybe they have some ideas for using #Clips to do this? @alyssamlegett@ccsnappouedu1#appleeduchat
A1) Using multimedia is a critical component for Ss to share their voice. Creating this way doesn’t identify those that struggle to read or write. Everyone is truly able to share. #AppleEDUchat
A1: A1: my Ss have the best story to tell, they are immigrants or their parents are. This is a time when creating safe space in our classrooms first allows us to use tools like SeeSaw and the collaborate feature on iWorks to get Ss to open up and share. #AppleEDUChat
Hi #AppleEDUchat! Casey here! Dir. of Tech Innovation & STEM @RoseTreeMedia outside of Philadelphia. I am super excited to share my passion for technology integration with the @RoseTreeMedia teachers this year!
The ability for the teacher to record her voice for students will allow for students to be able to study pronunciation at home. It will also allow the students to verbally translate assignments for the teacher to grade pronunciation. #AppleEDUchat
A1: I love all the opportunities for creation on the iPad. Crafting lessons that allow for students to develop a sense of community is where it's at! I love using Clips, Keynote, Page, and iMovie to help Ss share their story! #AppleEDUchat
A1: I direct a program called First Look, which is a campus visit program for middle school students. My tour guides introduce themselves by being vulnerable. One of them mentions their learning disability. The kids open up because of that! #appleeduchat
In reply to
@MisterCMaine, @AppleEDU, @MiaLMorrison, @145lewis
Start by letting them introduce themselves in class on day 1. Implementing line draw animation and voice recording in Keynote on iPad allows Ss and Ts and environment to begin building that trust. #AppleEDUchat#30secondsofSelf
A1: Start by letting them introduce themselves in class on day 1. Implementing line draw animation and voice recording in Keynote on iPad allows Ss and Ts and environment to begin building that trust. #AppleEDUchat#30secondsofSelf
A1: I am really focusing in on photography lately as a way for students to share their voice. #AppleEduChat Interesting how it can really help us see our personal interpretations/points of view with the same simple subject.
Q1 : Every student has a story to tell.… and it requires vulnerability. How are you (or might you) using multimedia to amplify student voice and build acceptance within a community? How are you nurturing a culture so students feel safe sharing? #AppleEDUchat
Shannon Osheroff from Chicago area. I think the new audio record features in iWork is an incredible way to amplify student voice via multimedia. It empowers s’s to share more than what they might share just by typing. #AppleEduChat#EveryoneCanCreate

If we expect students to care about expressing their ideas at the level expected for the #21stCentury we need to teach student how to find the subjects that move them. See what drives children’s book biographer Anita Silvey’s love of the inquiry process:
A1: Start by letting them introduce themselves in class on day 1. Implementing line draw animation and voice recording in Keynote on iPad allows Ss and Ts and environment to begin building that trust. #AppleEDUchat#30secondsofSelf
Q1: I have not personally used pages with Ss to create books but 💡Idea: Ss collaborate to create and publish a nonfiction book in pages to iBooks as one of the ways Ss can choose to make their learning public at the end of their STEAM unit! #AppleEDUchat
#AppleEDUChat A1: model for students examples. Share my failure to success stories. Scaffold activities like moderating inside a closes LMS then expanding to bigger audiences. Working with partners. Build relationships with class. Whew.
I am currently working on creating a pub in one of my classes and it has been fascinating to explore the features. There is so many advantages to being able to add audio and video into not only lessons, but student assignments. #AppleEDUchat
@DrTerriC yes, Clips app would be great for this! Students are able to be as transparent as they would like and still get to be heard regardless. Or, they can simply use yet to share their story or explain a concept. #AppleEDUchat
A1: So many students have remarkable stories that need to be told. Students just need an opportunity. Recently, students have produced many heartfelt video open letters from their own personal lives, including family loss, LGBT acceptance, and other issues. #appleeduchat
A2: "Traditional" literacy is enhanced by multimedia when used w/ intention. For struggling writers, multimedia = accessibility. Ss can voice type/narrate, use video/photos, etc. #AppleEDUchat Re-think literacy cause tech is medium of this generation: https://t.co/t8MHOgryi3
A1 I think it helps to set the tone and comfort level by using multimedia from day one. Start getting them used to seeing themselves on video - it could be something as simple as an ice-breaker question using Flipgrid. #AppleEDUchat
That is a great idea because explaining their process throughout the project will help them remember the new skills that they are learning. #AppleEDUchat
A2:We differentiate everything else during our day, why not let the students do that in their product? What is storytelling? Isn’t it words-written, spoken, read/recorded or drawn? Let their voices be heard using any domain of language! #AppleEDUchat
#appleeduchat A2: Hmmmmm: use a variety of mediums from voice in podcasting to face in video. To me… everything is literacy. 🤪 ELA-mindset: we are all teachers of literacy.
It all starts with relationships. A class as a community has to trust each other by building relationships so they feel comfortable sharing stories. Then the multi-media can make the story-telling more powerful as students become creators and decide how to share. #AppleEduChat

A1: In order for students to feel comfortable to amplify their voice, it takes time, patience, and trust. This doesn't happen overnight. With the right culture, encouragement, and positive motivation, students can do anything! #AppleEduChat
A2 #AppleEDUchat Multimedia projects allow every student to shine bc they may be strong with skill not traditionally considered 'literacy' like visual literacy, performance/speaking, collaboration/planning #edchat#PBL
A2 S’s can feel comfortable engaging in literacy skills when empowered to tell stories via video, photography, music, or even drawing by sketching book summaries! #AppleEDUChat#EveryoneCanCreate
A2 #AppleEDUchat by giving students choice they have more options to tell their stories how they want (comics, videos, drawings, writing, AR and VR creation etc etc) so many tools
A1 I think it helps to set the tone and comfort level by using multimedia from day one. Start getting them used to seeing themselves on video - it could be something as simple as an ice-breaker question using Flipgrid. #AppleEDUchat
Our program has 4 levels of media arts, and I think it starts with the culture. Early on, students are encouraged to express themselves. I think it carries throughout all 4 years of high school. I also model this by expressing my own voice through film. #appleeduchat
A2 #AppleEDUchat Multimedia projects are inherently authentic and made to be shared with an audience outside of the classroom--a meaningful experience with purpose. #edchat
A2: our students have so many needs - giving them options to say, write, animate, or otherwise create helps make sure that each student is able to share their true story in their true voice. #AppleEDUchat
#appleeduchat A2: Hmmmmm: use a variety of mediums from voice in podcasting to face in video. To me… everything is literacy. 🤪 ELA-mindset: we are all teachers of literacy.
A2 #appleeduchat I think that teachers showing that they make mistakes and showing their venerability lets students know that they can be vulnerable and make mistakes “There is no such thing as a stupid question” is my mantra
In reply to
@MisterCMaine, @AppleEDU, @145lewis, @MiaLMorrison
I also think our environment fosters this high level risk taking. Students see other students work, and see the direct result from the local community. I think it becomes contagious! #Appleeduchat
It all starts with relationships. A class as a community has to trust each other by building relationships so they feel comfortable sharing stories. Then the multi-media can make the story-telling more powerful as students become creators and decide how to share. #AppleEduChat
Connecting to @DrHowardGardner’s multiple intelligence theory - we all show our intelligences in different ways. Multi-media allows students with different intelligences to be able to communicate effectively & share their talents. #AppleEduChat
A2 #AppleEDUchat by giving students choice they have more options to tell their stories how they want (comics, videos, drawings, writing, AR and VR creation etc etc) so many tools
A2: I love how multimedia can empower ALL learners and can level the playing field. Check out how this combination was powerful for all and amazing for one! https://t.co/kJTAvsolzx#AppleEDUChat
A2: Multimedia projects lend themselves very well to a broad and diverse student population. There should be no limitations on who is producing material. AP-Special Education students can be tremendously successful in the media arts. #appleeduchat
a3) There are some great examples to use for teaching... For example the same news reported by different sources.. For example nike ads from today - so many accounts to compare and discuss - two or three different narratives. #AppleEduChat
Student choice is a tremendous asset to story telling. I've found that including a variety of choices, fosters a more genuine and successful learning experience. #AppleEDUchat
A2 There are a lot of ways that students can introduce their stories by showing or demonstrating their interests via images, audio, video, etc. #AppleEDUchat
A3: Step 1 - Welcome technology in the classroom. Ignoring it creates bigger problems. Step 2 - trust your students want to do positive, thoughtful, productive work using the technology. Step 3 - let down your walls. Show how you evaluate info online. #AppleEDUchat
A3) Focusing on media literacy so young adults have skills needed. Picked up some resources over the summer that we will go through together. #AppleEDUchat
The devices in our pockets places a production studio at our fingertips. Model their use productively and students will choose productivity. Whether phones detract from academics or whether they’re used to enhance language-based communication is completely within our control.
A1: #digcit lessons like @CommonSense and @GoogleForEdu#beinternetawesome have many resources for helping students learn how to treat each other with kindness and respect both digitally and in person so that Ss feel safe sharing in a digital world with multimedia #AppleEDUChat
In the #EveryoneCanCreate curriculum @StirpeCon has a fabulous poetry lesson where Ss choose the tone in which the poem is read. That is a great retell or prediction strategy to do with our Elem. too! Demonstrates how a story can be told through multiple lenses. #AppleEDUChat
In reply to
@MisterCMaine, @AppleEDU, @145lewis, @MiaLMorrison, @StirpeCon
A3: Designing the learning experience so Ss can analyze and synthesize multiple sources of information. I love how easy it is to include audio, movies, and drawing in Keynote to airplay and share with the class! #AppleEDUchat
Adding your own voice (tone, color, lens) changes meaning and interpretation - shows Ss how personal learning and expressions can be #literacy#media#AppleEDUchat
In reply to
@ms_carbone, @MisterCMaine, @AppleEDU, @145lewis, @StirpeCon
A3: But it’s not just kiddos that need to know this right? Figuring out truth from half-truth or exaggerated truth is what education is becoming all about. It’s not just being able to find AN answer, but being able to extrapolate THE answer from all the noise #AppleEDUchat
Q3 Tomorrow my Gr 6 is looking at some pictures, and searching on Snopes if true, false, or what? My PLN gave me great examples of photos they’d seen shared on Facebook as true. #AppleEDUchat
A3: This is a piece I use often with other educators about the importance of storytelling and education. “Campfires in Cyberspace” https://t.co/uzYvlXvOWt Authored by @dthornburg#AppleEDUchat
A3 Jumping in late here... I love using prompts like 'What do you notice? What do you wonder?' 'Would you rather...' and 'Convince me that...' to leverage student thinking and push them to interpret what they observe in various multimedia forms. #AppleEDUchat

Great point, Dr. Cohen. George Couros' "The Innovator's Mindset" echoes this same concept--"the three most important words in education are: relationships, relationships, relationships." #appleeduchat
A2: Creating multimedia allows Ss to apply basic content knowledge even without strong writing skills or English conventions. It also gives them the opportunity to plan, rehearse, collaborate, revise then edit their projects! #AppleEDUChat
I LOVE this! We actually had a campfire theme a couple years ago based around this article! Storytelling is just part of human nature! Technology enables new opportunities to capture and share stories! #AppleEDUCHat#VirtualCampfire
A3: This is such an important skill! Media literacy should be the top priority of all educators. We look at many different sources for the same story, highlighting the many different biases in today's media world... #AppleEDUchat
Q3: This is a tough one, because I think this is something adults are still doing today in our own stories. But I think allowing students to create short clips, movies, or graphics is a healthy path away from reality for some students. #AppleEDUChat
“Print does as much to perpetuate blatant errors as it does to spread enlightened truth, where nonsense and truth seemed to move hand in hand with neither made uncomfortable by the presence of the other.” Elizabeth Einstein 1972 #AppleEDUchat
A3: Designing the learning experience so Ss can analyze and synthesize multiple sources of information. I love how easy it is to include audio, movies, and drawing in Keynote to airplay and share with the class! #AppleEDUchat
A3: ...Students are also asked to produce their own fictional mockumentary, and then present it as it were real news. Then we have a discussion and analysis on how people have interpreted that piece of media. The results are always intriguing. #appleeduchat
Great point, Dr. Cohen. George Couros' "The Innovator's Mindset" echoes this same concept--"the three most important words in education are: relationships, relationships, relationships." #appleeduchat
Put an iPad in a child’s hand and they can direct their story as Spielberg, record it like McCartney, write it like Hemingway or draw it like Picasso! #AppleEDUchat
A3 I think students need to be asked about the sources of information they use. What web site did it come from? What organization runs the site, and do they have any sort of bias? How did the site get their information? #AppleEDUchat
A3: Once students know how to produce their own media, it's easier for them to understand how much of the media around them is produced. The decisions they made to make their own pieces, are often the same decisions used by media professionals. #AppleEduChat
My preservice teachers are doing #Appleteacher now.. looking forward to seeing what kinds of stories they can do with more knowledge of apps and choices.
#appleeduchat
Collecting photo & video doesn’t replace the need for language, to the contrary, reflecting back on experiences that were too big for words in the moment, fuels the desire to find just the right words to express deeper ideas. FULL EPISODE AT: https://t.co/baUFslXAaL
A4a: I think by focusing on skills and standards, it’s easy to make the case that multimedia IS literacy. They’re different sides of the same coin - I need to have listening comp to develop my reading comp to support my writing, etc. #AppleEDUchat
Multimedia is part of student’s daily landscape - we must harness their medium and leverage it to express and share. Multimedia can enhance the writing process by giving students various ways to connect #AppleEDUchat
Learning a language is hard. Ss acquire a new language through all means. Reading and writing are often those we talk about, but there is speaking and listening- this is where the magic happens. They are usually acquired first, let’s let Ss be successful! #AppleEDUchat
The media literacy of adults is terrifying! We must educate students to understand how easy it is to distort the truth through various medias. #AppleEduChat
That is awesome! We have all of our teachers in our BlendED Professional Learning use the #appleteacher program too. Such a great way to develop fluency with the core apps and iOS 11! They love the content and badging up is fun too! #AppleEDUChat
Yes, it's "part of their landscape," so let's honor it. What do we do when Ts aren't comfortable using tech in this manner? How might we help them? #AppleEDuchat
Multimedia is part of student’s daily landscape - we must harness their medium and leverage it to express and share. Multimedia can enhance the writing process by giving students various ways to connect #AppleEDUchat
If we expect students to care about expressing their ideas at the level expected for the #21stCentury we need to teach student how to find the subjects that move them. See what drives children’s book biographer Anita Silvey’s love of the inquiry process:
A3: Ts Model critical thinking while consuming information, cross check facts with reliable sources to confirm, consider the point of view and possible motivations of content creators. Encourage Ss to examine their own biases prior to creating their own content. #AppleEDUChat
A4A S’s Learn differently today & have access 2 tech that allows them 2 learn how they want 2 learn. T’s need to put themselves in minds of S’s & not how we were taught (w tech/media being a dessert or “fun time”). Bring it in frm the start & see what’s S’s can do! #AppleEDUChat
A4A I feel like you have to point out how the dessert 🍭🍦🍰 hits all the vegetable 🥒🥕🌽 requirements plus more! Organizing and planning a project hits more skills! #AppleEduChat
A4: Using Ss creations to guide instruction by either Ss or Ts provides credence to multimedia as a valid instructional learning resource. #AppleEDUChat
A4A: I think visual literacy is equal to traditional literacy. I think they are both integrated so closely and equally prevalent to our society. However, I think the way things are being distributed are changing the literacy dynamic. #appleeduchat
A4a This seems like a generational issue - I don’t think Millennials or Gen Z feel this way. At this point, multimedia has become mainstream for many. #AppleEDUchat
A4: Once we begin to model how media can help us see ourselves more thoughtfully, students will see the tools in their pockets for productivity they’ll use them more productively #appleeduchat
The devices in our pockets places a production studio at our fingertips. Model their use productively and students will choose productivity. Whether phones detract from academics or whether they’re used to enhance language-based communication is completely within our control.
I was struck by the deep thinking & metacognition learners were doing as they created their films. I assumed it would be storyboard first, filming last. Not the case. Story came from the filming. Ideas and message deepened with more footage #AppleEDUchat
Yes! Students need to be comfortable with risk taking, and failing. All to often students have a stigma with failure. Some of the best things have happened because someone tried to do something, failed at it, and made it better. #AppleEduChat
Agree. When tech is a treat, it is an event. I love blended learning w/ consistent workflow, targeting instruction w/ real-time feedback, creation, collaboration, and reflection. When at least 2-3 of these happen in a lesson, it is no longer an event, but a culture! #appleEDUchat
Foundational language-based skills are often seen as the vegetables, traditional reading and writing the sustenance, and multimedia the dessert. Constructive use of #ClassroomClips flips the meal on its head
When Ss make informed decisions about HOW to communicate & share stories they are evaluating which methods of communication can most effectively share their story. This enables critical thinking and shows they understand how different communication methods work. #AppleEduChat
A4B Creative expression allows S’s to APPLY what they’ve learned. It’s difficult to access S’s literacy skills by simply filling in bubbles or checking for comprehension after reading an ie passage #AppleEDUChat
A4A I feel like you have to point out how the dessert 🍭🍦🍰 hits all the vegetable 🥒🥕🌽 requirements plus more! Organizing and planning a project hits more skills! #AppleEduChat
Q5 Holding them to high expectations and having them push the limits. There are so many options when using technology, make sure they are doing quality work and getting outside their “social video making” comfort zone. #AppleEduChat
The devices in our pockets places a production studio at our fingertips. Model their use productively and students will choose productivity. Whether phones detract from academics or whether they’re used to enhance language-based communication is completely within our control.
I agree wholeheartedly! I don't want tech to be considered a treat. Let's challenge students to develop empathy, collaborate, and compromise utilizing technology! The culture is far more important! #AppleEduChat
A4B: I was in one of our high school English classrooms and the teacher had Ss sketch the scenes in the Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Helped Ss discover the symbolism and imagery!So easy to sketch and share via Apple TV! #AppleEDUCHat
A4b: being able to put an image & a sound to a metaphor? That’s high level right there! Creation brings a deeper understanding of literacy than “I can tell you about what I’ve read”. #AppleEDUchat
A5: This is a shift in being CONSUMERS of technology to CREATORS with technology. Shift that mindset and everything changes for the child. #AppleEDUchat#EveryoneCanCreate
Love this! YES, I found that when you add sketching or music making or image creation to expression, Ss discover and make SO MANY MORE connections #AppleEDUchat
A5A: Don’t reinvent the wheel... take a look at curriculum like #EveryoneCanCreate to incorporate different mediums into everyday learning experiences #AppleEDUChat
A5 “Give the pupils something to do not something to learn & the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking.” Dewey. This challenges me to ask “Why?” Why do we ask Ss to use tech? Why is it MORE than a distraction... WHAT are we doing w it? Create or consume? #AppleEDUChat
A4B: I choose to use creativity to improve my own literacy skills. I read (a lot) and sketchnote (most) and understand so much more as a result! #AppleEDUchathttps://t.co/y1YbZuVgoj
A5a: No matter the level of experience, celebrating student process through video is a great way to help the community see the value of video. #AppleEDUchat
We’re two decades into the 21stCentury, multimedia exemplars aren’t just the practice of digital role models, it’s the practice of role models, period. Our day-long DEEPER LEARNING workshop shows there’s never a wrong place to start! See the full video at: https://t.co/baUFslXAaL
A4b Students are going to want to read and write about the things that they feature in their creative expressions. If they’re passionate about it, they’re going to want to learn more about it. #AppleEDUchat
Give the assignment authenticity & create opportunities for Ss to have their work published. Once they understand others are experiencing their work, that changes everything. Global collaboration projects can create many opportunities for students to publish. #AppleEduChat
Q4B: genuine creation builds brain connections for long term expanded learning! When a student writes a song or poem to reflect their learning experiences, their retention and application of learning bleeds into wider arenas of listeners and learners! #AppleEDUChat
A4B:I think creative expression directly enhances literacy. For example, to illustrate how easy it is to manipulate media, taking it out of context, and transforming its meaning entirely, I challenge students to edit two different movie trailers together. #appleeduchat
A4 - Imagine if everyone on #appleeduchat tonight got a group of students to create a non-fiction guide to their town/city/village. We'd have a comprehensive, multimedia resource to compare human and physical features across EMEIA
A4: Using more digital books and interactive visual mediums in the classroom - and even with parents - can be helpful in making visual mediums more relevant. #AppleEDUChat
A5a: Creating open ended projects. Allowing students to work from a Keynote template or modeling a book in Pages to change their view. I asked Ss to show appreciation to book sponsors and three groups asked to produce a video thank you using Clips. #easysharing#AppleEDUchat
#AppleEDUchat Just jumping in here after teaching a lesson - hello to all from Shanghai! I will be continuing to join the chat in future if I don't have a class - stalking from afar! #ADE2018
Love this idea of student becoming teachers for their parents. The power of showing what you learn through teaching is REAL! How might we coach parents so they can ask the right Q's as they work with students? #AppleEDUchat
A4: Using more digital books and interactive visual mediums in the classroom - and even with parents - can be helpful in making visual mediums more relevant. #AppleEDUChat
A5a: Creating open ended projects. Allowing students to work from a Keynote template or modeling a book in Pages to change their view. I asked Ss to show appreciation to book sponsors and three groups asked to produce a video thank you using Clips. #easysharing#AppleEDUchat
A4B: Ss use using higher level thinking as they analyze tasks, create products, get feedback, make changes, then share learning with a more broad audience. Ss are naturally more critical of their work and think more deeply about their message with an audience. #AppleEDUChat
A5: innorder for teachers to help provide educationally sound activities they have to BELIEVE the devices and tools are more than a distraction. #AppleEDUchat
We can open a vivid window into the lives of others. The better we understand others, the better we can understand ourselves. Multimedia is a vibrant way to invite all voices into the conversation! #AppleEDUchat
Q5A: just as “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure,” one person’s distraction could be another person’s learning experience. We must develop mutual respect for the diversity of approaches to learning. #AppleEDUChat
A5a: I think technology can be a distraction, yes. However, technology can also be the gateway to empowerment. It takes a positive culture to channel distracting tech and transform it into something amazing. #appleeduchat
Collecting photo & video doesn’t replace the need for language, to the contrary, reflecting back on experiences that were too big for words in the moment, fuels the desire to find just the right words to express deeper ideas. FULL EPISODE AT: https://t.co/baUFslXAaL
A6: the simple idea that everyone has a story to tell is the takeaway. We cannot put kids and ideas in a box. Everyone is different and has different strengths. Let’s harness that. #AppleEDUchat
A5a) When they are preparing to share with an audience & are invested they are productive-focused. Anything can be a distraction when looking for a way to avoid. #AppleEDUchat
A6: I want to use technology to ispire social change that reaches outside the classroom. How can telling a story using tech change the school, community, state, country and world-at-large? #EveryoneCanCreateChange#AppleEDUchat
A6: Continue to model PRODUCTIVE & empathetic use of multimedia and sharing our stories. Students need to see how it can impact our communities in a positive way! #AppleEDUchat
We’re two decades into the 21stCentury, multimedia exemplars aren’t just the practice of digital role models, it’s the practice of role models, period. Our day-long DEEPER LEARNING workshop shows there’s never a wrong place to start! See the full video at: https://t.co/baUFslXAaL
A6: students have a voice that they will share if they feel trusted. Investing time and effort into creating avenues for that voice is the key to accessing all of our stories. #AppleEDUchat
I firmly believe you actually can change the school, community, and state. You'll be so surprised what your students are truly capable of! #appleEduChat
A6: I cannot wait for my Ss to share their video stories more and more. As a culture and as kids they are taught to be seen but not heard. I also want them to embrace their culture and their languages through sharing their stories. #AppleEDUchat
Thank you so much to @MiaLMorrison for helps us shape the conversation. And to @MisterCMaine for all the organization. And thank you so much to everyone for coming out tonight! #appleeduchat
A5A: Ts can plan tasks/ opportunities for Ss to have voice and choice in either how they are learning, how they are demonstrating mastery of the content, or who they are working with tech then Ss reflect on how tech impacted their learning #AppleEDUChat
Guys, this was my first #appleeduchat But not the last! It was so great chatting with everyone! Thanks @MisterCMaine for organizing this awesome chat. Good luck in 2019 everyone!
Tonight's chat will be storified so you can take a look back at all the wonderful resources and ideas shared! THANK YOU all for joining us. We'll be rocking #AppleEDUchat every Tuesday throughout the school year! @AppleEDU@MiaLMorrison
