Looking forward to Day 2 of #TCT18 - Day 1 was awesome because i got to present with @nbartley6, meeting “new” friends, Michele “freakin’” Kelly, and some great sessions
Welcome to #satchat! Excited to share LIVE from #TCT18! Please introduce yourself & tag in 3 people you hope to meet LIVE in person in 2018! #coffeeEduNJ@EvolvingEd
Brad @spirrison with @participate, usually in Chicago but here at #TCT18 rockin' Springsteen and collaborating over the present and future or education. Good morning everyone!
Good morning from #TCT18#coffeeEduNJ#satchat mashup! Steve from NJ - I teach game design and development and am participating in research on VR in the classroom #ARVRinEDU. If you're here check out the @bytespeed booth and immerse yourself!
Q1: How can you use digital tools to turn students into creators in the classroom? Share a favorite learning activity where you placed #TasksBeforeApps. #satchat#TCT18@ClassTechTips
A1 Use @Flipgrid or @explainevrythng to put students at the centre of their learning and empower their voice. Creating videos, celebrating student strengths are always my priority. Explain their thoughts and processes. #satchat#TCT18

Q2: “Great teachers engineer learning experiences that put students in the driver’s seat and then get out of the way.” -Ben Johnson
How do you help create amazing learning adventures for students and/or staff?#satchat@NowakRo#TCT18#coffeeEDUNJ#RoyalWedding2018
A1: Digital citizenship is SO important for our Ss in a world where it is intertwined into their every day, it is so important to teach our Ss because they might not learn these lessons of how to properly handle tech anywhere else! #SatChat#TCT18
A1: @explainevrythng is fun! There’s a lot I haven’t tried out but if the kids have a tool they want to create with, I say go for it. Teach me! #satchat#tct18
A2 I try to be authentic and make learning fun. It needs to be meaningful. I always think outside the box. Involve guests, authors, surprise visitors. Always stay a step ahead of them and create a wow factor. #satchat#tct18

How do you help create amazing learning adventures for students and/or staff?#satchat@NowakRo#TCT18#coffeeEDUNJ#RoyalWedding2018
A2 I take the time to talk with them and see what their needs are , I look at the building needs and find PD that will help us grow ( one time I took everyone to an escape room for “Team Building” #satchat#TCT18#coffeeEDUNJ

A2: it takes teams of teachers who are risk takers in the classroom. I am fortunate to be surrounded by many. Sometimes we fail, but the integral part is debriefing after & figuring out a plan B. This is the most exciting part of our job. #satchat

A2: Being a good digital citizen to me means modeling, monitoring, & practicing what you preech. Ss (& adults/people in general) need digital role models more than anything else! We are the ones to lead that appropriate use. #satchat#TCT18
A3: Challenges are diverse, just like how digital citizenship education is diverse. Ss perception of how serious it is that everything online is permanent is my biggest challenge & parental influences as well #satchat#TCT18
I like showing S's the pictures that come up when you google my name. The first one is usually my MySpace profile picture that will be there forever. It usually makes them think a bit. #satchat#TCT18
A3 Unfortunately some people are all about control- I have NO time for those people. Develop a rapport with your students , see what they need and do what needs to be done so they succeed #SatChat#TCT18#coffeeEDUNJ
A2: It’s a discussion about how we can approach things so that everyone is successful, and everyone can learn what they need to in whatever way works. There’s a lot of testing out and trying again if necessary. #satchat#tct18
A3 Focus on kids and building relationships. You need to know kids to be able to focus on what counts for them. Every child is different. Talk with them, listen to them, understand them. It is all about empathy and kindness. #satchat#tct18
A3: I try to model focusing on what matters in the classroom. Encouraging #choosekind, critical thinking, and collaboration are critical to preparing Ss for their future. #satchat#TCT18
A3: We need to remember that we were born with two ears and one mouth. Listening is the foundation of learning. We oftentimes forget that. The good news is that we don't have to wait for a new update to get back on board #satchat#TCT18
A3. We need to keep the understanding that each learner is different and they need different things at different times. As Ts we need to respect and honour this by being responsive as we meet our Ss where they are at. #satchat#TCT18
#satchat A3 I have Ts in my bldgs that step back & allow Ss to run the show. T presents the topic. Ss decide what is important and how they will figure it out and show what they have learned. Anyone ever use SOLE strategy?
Never let your students guess how you feel about them; every student should know that they are special and important in your classroom. https://t.co/r8kok55aXi
Gotta bounce early #satchat. Bounce house setup needed for the kids bday party here today. Enjoy the rest of the convo & #TCT18. Thanks for all the ideas folks. @spirrison@JenWilliamsEdu
A4 I think once the price on the hardware comes down there will be some amazing things going on in schools. Right now there are many “job training “ apps available for the workplace #SatChat#TCT18#coffeeEduNJ
A5: We can ask Ss what they want to change in the world and how they can use tech to do that, also what does it mean to be responsible and how can we show that on intrapersonally both physically and online #satchat#TCT18
A6: The first step of an# EdTechReboot is to unplug, reflect and revive. Thereafter, I like to seek out my communities of practice to share ideas, resources and insights I may apply in the upcoming year. #satchat@ClassTechTips#TCT18#coffeeedunj
Q1 Students created this game from beginning to end using Google docs for handout, @classtools for spinner and the internet for research. And with all of that they were most excited about using the buzzers #TCT18
A6: Good digital citizenship can create individuals who are more able to integrate themselves into society as a whole. The concepts of being good citizens digitally transfers over to real life and overall will benefit everyone #satchat#TCT18

Congrats to the @EvolvingEd organizers and big thanks to the sponsors & vendors, fellow presenters, and all #TCT18 attendees for an awesome conference on Friday at @RiderUniversity! Hoping everyone attending today has a memorable day of connecting, learning, and sharing!
My Teacher & Admin Interviews page https://t.co/yng6ybmBIg To build a great staff you need a team to interview candidates consisting of admin, teachers, students & parents. You need all their perspectives on potential members to add to your school. #tct18#Hacking Leadership
Don't worry we'll be tweeting out all day! #TCT18 Sharing our learning with educators who couldn't make it & growing our PLNs is all what Twitter is about!
Presenting on #ComputerScience 'Overcome the Fear and Embrace the Algorithm!' at #TCT18 in rm 210. Let's reflect and learn together about the benefits of #CompSciEDU@EvolvingEd
Tomorrow’s unconference is going to be great! We have 4 different counties of educators already confirmed they will be there. Join in the fun for #CoffeeEduNJ#njed#TCT18
“You’ve got to know these kids. You have to go where that child lives to be able to take them where you want them to go” you must believe in them until they can believe in themselves. @Principal_EL#TCT18
Are you totally IN? Are you immersed in your class or school? Shadow a student, see school with their eyes.
Great PIRATE session with @JayBilly2 and @nbartley6#TCT18#LeadLAP#tlap
“It’s about going where that child is and taking them where you want them to go!” - @Principal_EL “You most believe in them until they begin to believe in themselves!” Day 2 Keynote at #TCT18!!
A3: I would say IMPERFECTION too has its importance in live in compare to Perfection. Love Imperfection too. Let the child Jump on Sofa; Sofa will come back, but not the child's happiness.
@Principal_EL#satchat#TCT18#coffeeEduNJ
@Principal_EL “A vision without a plan is an illusion.” We mist envision what we want for our stride Ts, consider what they deserve and the take ACTION to make the vision a reality.
Enjoying this message of love from @Principal_EL
A message of sharing and building love in the world from a school leader who does the real work of a principal, every day. #TCT18
Think about the shooting yesterday- think about our Ss- we need more kindness & love - there are people that love you! The kids that need love the most ask for it in the most unloving ways. @Principal_EL#TCT18
“The students who need the most love ask for it in the most unloving ways” #truth. ~@Principal_EL#tct18. Challenge is to see through the behavior and remember this truth.
@Principal_EL “Kids who need the most love, act in the most unloving ways!” If you understand this and truly embrace this, you will be more patient, compassionate and loving when a child acts in a manner that is unlovable...even if they act like this on most day. #tct18
Children who need the most love ask for it in the most unusual ways. @Principal_EL discussing how to reach the hardest students who need it the most. @DrRBizzle#tct18
"The view from the outside of a school looking in, is very different from the inside looking out. People who are not in education don't understand what it is that we sign up for" A teacher's job, role, & RESPONSIBILITY are far from just the classroom content @Principal_EL#TCT18
Leadership is about service. If you don’t serve, you can’t lead.
@Principal_EL
Need to always remember why you are in school and who you are there to impact
#TCT18
@Principal_EL. Pp outside of ed. don’t always understand what goes into teaching. This may bother you, but it shouldn’t. We don’t teach for those people, we don’t teach for our own glory, we teach to serve kids. Remember that and it doesn’t matter what others think. #tct18
@Principal_EL you speak my language. Love, compassion, servant leadership, heart. We are missionaries who are called to Kiev for kids. This dude gets me fired up!!! #tct18
@Principal_EL "Have faith in your students and their bright future without exception" 👏🏻 I have faith in my ESL students bright future." Thank you for the inspiration. #TCT18#WeAreChesterNJ
“As Principals, we are still teachers. I still cover classes! A good shepherd knows how the sheep feel. We must keep close proximity to those we serve.” @Principal_EL#TCT18@EvolvingEd
“The children who need the most love ask for it in the most unloving ways” @Principal_EL is connecting to our hearts-what an inspiring keynote and leader #tct18
@Principal_EL. Every kids should know that someone is CRAZY about them. Does every kid in your school know that someone is CRAZY about them. If not, what ACTION will you take to make it a reality? #tct18
Today’s #tct18 keynoter @Principal_EL - Make sure students know they are loved. “Imagine if every student walked in (to school) and knew there was someone who is crazy about them.” Kids need love ❤️
"Every child needs someone who is crazy about them.
Avoid majoring in the minor - If the kids need it give it to them. If they need a pencil give them a damn pencil." @Principal_EL#TCT18
A3: You would see Ss&Ts asking questions, searching for answers, working on bettering themselves but in whatever way that looks like for that individual #EduGladiators#TCT18
#tct18 If every principal was as powerful as @Principal_EL teachers would perform at their best and students would perform at their best. It's that simple.
@Principal_EL. “Discipline is a form of love.” When a child needs help identifying boundaries and expectations. We are called to discipline with love. #tct18
This is my last tweet about @Principal_EL because I'm going to just take it all in. This man is the definition of an inspiring leader. Like he says, he is preaching the gospel. #TCT18
"Be CURIOUS about children.
Curious about their lives outside of school. They want to know that they'e more than just a test or a line in a budget." @Principal_EL#TCT18
4C's - #3 -Culture - Everything revolves around the culture of the school, the teachers, students, - is it alive or dead? Poison and Toxic or Happy and Supportive, #TCT18@EvolvingEd@Principal_EL
Culture is the oxygen of a school! Attendee at #tct18 shares at keynote session. @Principal_EL Culture in a school - are people being celebrated or tolerated.? AMEN! @msosbornc@EBGtech@DrRBizzle

Tough
Honest
Fair
Energizing
INSPIRATIONAL!!!
And he's in the middle of the audience engaging and sharing!
Happening right NOW @ #TCT18
Everything resolves around CULTURE. We must foster an environment of culture where students feel like they matter. A culture that fosters resilience, social emotional learning, and the ability to fail. @Principal_EL#TCT18
Hey #TCT18 participants... join me in the last session of the day today (Saturday) for a discussion on: Communicating with All Generations
Room 114 @ 2:45 PM
Find out what each generation likes and how you can get your message across the generations in your school or district.
Everyone needs to feel special, students need to know that WE KNOW their names, that WE CARE about their lives outside of school. "We are important and stronger together & this profession is a calling" @Principal_EL#TCT18
Great reminder from @Principal_EL that applies to our districs too: I know I’m preaching to the choir, but the choir needs to be inspired too! #TCT18@EvolvingEd
“Stop praying for a lighter load, instead pray for a stronger back - The kids need you.” @Principal_EL One of the most inspiring presentations I’ve ever heard! Thank you #TCT18
@Principal_EL. The work we do is hard, but it is well worth it. “We should stop praying for a lighter load and start praying for a stronger back. #tct18
"Stop praying for a lighter load and pray for a stronger back! Students need us to carry the load." Truly inspired by @Principal_EL message this morning! #TCT18
Lots of kids come to school with their invisible backpacks, weighted with struggles.
Stress, worry, fear, anxiety, trauma, lack of physical needs, loneliness, anger, sadness, & hopelessness can make them so heavy; too heavy for learning to happen.
Notice & love them instead.
"If service is beneath you, leadership is beyond you." @Principal_EL TOOK ME TO CHURCH this morning! Beyond grateful to become a part of your ministry #TCT18
We can have conversations w/ Ss using text evidence just by using a picture and looking at everything we see and then describing/backing up our thinking with reasoning @trevorabryan#TCT18
Love that @Cmdr_Hadfield is a part of our session this morning at #TCT18 with @NowakRo about Videos & YouTube - teaching, learning & differentiating. 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 🚀🛰
I love that @FredEnde is able to use clips from #MeanGirls and #StarWars to make connections about the relationships we form. Didn't know you were a mean girls fan ;) #TCT18
After connecting with #eduhero, @mssackstein, for so many years, I finally had the opportunity to meet with her f2f at #TCT18. I cannot wait to collaborate with her in the future!
Wow! @prattien@NeelDesaiBA did @SBSDBOE proud at #TCT18! Showing how to use the Pecha Kucha style of presentation for workshops/meetings and then instructionally w students. Great “chit chat” and people are inspired! #sbpdchat
Ps. I missed the plaid memo. ☺️

Wow. I knew @GoogleForEdu had many tools but @Ms_KatieNieves just shared so many more ways to help differentiate for Ss using google. Thank you! #TCT18
#ArtOfComp Don't just tell, show the audience by describing mood. Mood pulls the audience in, connects, allows you to relate. #tct18@trevorabryan texts, images, audio, video.
BONUS - The culture of inquiry continues. As @Rdene915 poses answers, you get to create the questions. Join the #pln365 chat on Tuesday evening at 8:30 PM EST. #TCT18
@prattien such great ideas on bringing Pecha Kucha tonthe classroom and engage learning through presentation skills. Can’t wait to start using this! Thank you!! #TCT18#LEADLAP#FutureReady#tlap
Shared from @trevorabryan about how to look at any piece of art/medium through his access lens & analyze mood to explore & then transfer this into writing or other expressive mediums #TCT18https://t.co/TBG1tWSBGo via @YouTube
Looking through the access lens with visuals & words, can stimulate conversation across mediums and these moods create background knowledge easily carried to other items no matter the medium @trevorabryan#TCT18 AWESOME!
Off to session 2 on day 2 of #TCT18... it was a tough decision between 2 presentations... thank you @Ms_KatieNieves for all the great resources in my session 1, but... yeah, I had to go to THAT teacher @mrnesi
Still thinking about the big take away a from this morning and @JayBilly2 had such a good one ‘culture is the oxygen in the school.’ So encapsulating of the power of culture. #tct18#LeadLAP#TLAP#leadwithculture
Just ordered my copy of #LEADLAP Lead with Culture! If this book is even half as awesome as @JayBilly2 in real life, it will be a fantastic read! #tlap@dbc_inc#TCT18
Thank you for the much-needed inspiration this morning @Principal_EL Our Saturday squad from @Brick_K12 will bring your 4 C's and enthusiasm back to our buildings - "Success breeds success!" #TCT18
Currently in @NowakRo’s session of Teaching and Leading with Kindness: How Teaching Empowers a School & Creates More Heart. Learning a lot about Roman. So happy to get to know him on different level beyond @Twitter. I see why he’s an #eduhero! #TCT18#bekindEDU
These days, the interNET is a network, social media is a network, online communication works in networks...why are schools still operating as hierarchies? #FutureOfTechnologyConference#edchat#TCT18
I love talking about this topic - The importance of kindness and positivity in schools. It’s definitely not always easy, but it’s incredibly important.. @novakro#TCT18
Great session this morning by @WiseDad_Games on Digital Games, Literacy, and Game-based Learning at #TCT18. What an amazing game he has made, Sydney's World, available on @steam_games free for educators. #gbl#litchat
#2 I also collect all the pencils I find lying around in the hallways or in my room and keep it in a bin in the back students just get up and get them as they need them in the bin is empty though that's when I do the upgrade.

I love this idea from teacher Chad Arnett!! From now on, my students will get pencils from me with a positive affirmation! Goodbye boring yellow, hello encouragement! @FLJaguars_SUSD#susdlearns
@rosy_burke Thanks for a great session on trauma. Such an important topic that is often misunderstood. Lots of great ideas to take back to our classrooms. #TCT18
Thanks @Ms_KatieNieves for a great session on exploring ways to create visually engaging & interactive learning experiences to create opportunities for Ss to create, collaborate & think critically.. #hyperdocs#tct18#sbpdchat
One of my favorite topics - The importance of positivity and kindness in school. It’s of course not always easy, but it is incredibly important. ❤️🌎 #TCT18
Had the pleasure to meet and enjoy hear a powerful word of encouragement from @Principal_EL and joined by good friend and colleague @josuefalaise the #TCT18 . Always representing @KSA_roselle
Trump creates jobs. He works his ass off. MSMedia lies about what he does & puts a nasty spin on every possible point. Why do they lie to you? Why do the wealthy parasite owned outlets push such ugly hate at Trump? They're not your friends

Your golf count plays into the lies. You don't get to be over technical as a defense to pushing deception, then try to pull this condescending play 😆
His golf makes us 100s of $ billions. He makes deals there. They spend a hell of a lot less than Obama

@slewtrue611, @dusterdog1, @GOP, @realDonaldTrump, @CNN
Reading propaganda without questioning, creates funda-mental problems. These MSM outlets run propaganda without verification, because propaganda is the goal. CNN retracted the same crap you're pushing. The lies are every day. They colluded with the Clinton campaign. Truth matter?
In reply to
@slewtrue611, @dusterdog1, @GOP, @realDonaldTrump, @CNN
Nixon's team of 'plumbers' were not members of any federal agency though several team members had worked for the CIA in the past.
No successful spying was done, the bugs never worked long enough to garner any real information.
Watergate was a FAILED attempt at spying.
Nixon ended up being forced to resign because he engaged in an attempted COVER UP of the attempted spying at the Watergate hotel. He tried to use the CIA to block the FBI's investigation of the break in.
Here's why today's scandal is far worse than Watergate: not only was successful spying done on Trump's campaign during the 2016 election, it's been revealed the DOJ actually sent an intelligence asset to SET UP Trump campaign staff by initiating contact with them.
Federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies were used to spy on the opposing parties political campaign. It reached the point intelligence assets were use to initiate contact with Trump campaign staff so create reasons to investigate them.
So every time DNC Media tries to mock the idea this is 'worse than Watergate' don't stand for it for a second.
It IS worse than Watergate. 100 times worse.
/end
Great thread on Watergate vs Obamagate or whatever it will be called. Our government weaponized against the people & their choice for president. Well actually long before winning even the nomination. I've called it Watergate x 1000 from go. x100 is very safe. This is F***** UP!
Got to see ignite sessions in action for the first time at #TCT18. 5 minutes, 20 slides, 15 seconds each. Can teachers ignite their mini-lessons?? #sbpdchat
So awesome to hear @mgcjusa speak about the power of hooks AND refer to both #tlap and #leadlap -he definitely hooked us into his ignite session. LOVED it. #tct18#tlap#leadlap

Via @mssackstein on grading philosophies- have your students tell you - "Let me tell you what my body of learning looks like." Empower your students and engage them in the conversation of assessment. #tct18 👏 🙏 Awesome Ignite speech!! @michelelkelly@prattien@pamhernandez_4
Excited to teach @icodeinschool to educators. You don't have to be a programmer to use Codesters. Anyone can code :) Come to room 112 and check it out at 2-3 today #tct18

It’s here! It’s here!!! 💌 Mailman brought it a day early! Just yesterday I hung out with this AUTHOR & my really awesome pal @JayBilly2 at #TCT18, so I’m a day late for the autograph. It’s a great rainy NJ night to curl up with #LeadWithCulture#LeadLAP
Thank you to all the amazing educators I connected with this weekend. “ the view from outside the school is very different from the view inside looking out” “we still need to focus on love, on how to be kind...” & @Principal_EL ‘s 4Cs. re-energized for end of the yr! #TCT18
It was great to present a session at #TCT18 with @mr_meighen, a fellow HS English teacher and a good friend. Social media connections are powerful. Let’s make learning all about students. Let’s change their life, one student at a time.
Totally went out of my comfort zone, & took a risk. My first #Ignite speech at #TCT18 is completed! So glad I did it!! Thank you @EvolvingEd@TheBradCurrie@ScottRRocco for giving me the opportunity and always supporting me & @bethsteinen for all of your encouraging words.
