#FLedchat is a virtual meeting place using Twitter. Educators across the state of Florida come together on Wednesdays at 8pm EST to discuss the topics of the week.
I'm Michelle, Media Specialist from Daytona Beach & I'll be moderating the chat tonight. From @SirKenRobinson: maximum security prisoners get more time outdoors than our kids! #FLedChat
A2: Tech in the classroom has the ability to increase efficiency, collaboration, creation, the ability to differentiate and personalize instruction. #FLedChat
A2. Set up learning so that kids can learn about things they are interested in. Tech also opened up the world for my kids--Skyping with classes around the world gives them a new perspective. #FLedChat
A3. Since we don't know the jobs of the future, we should prepare students with skills for the future: Collaboration, Communication, Creativity and Critical Thinking. the 4Cs. #fledchat
A3. This has nothing really to do with tech, but helping kids develop their emotional intelligence, flexibility, ability to identify & solve problems, & their ability to work with others will get them ready for what life throws at them. #FLedChat
Beyond the academics, I talk to my students daily about their choices, life, opportunities and consequences! For some of my kids, they’ve got to know that the future is full of opportunity beyond their wildest dreams #FLedchat
A3. I believe teaching the students how to communicate with others, think out side the box, and flexibility will get them ready for the future. #edfb4338#FLEdChat
#FLedChat My 6th graders are currently creating Powtoon videos to explain the founding of the Roman Republic. One student asked to put tell it as if it was happening in 2018. So much engagement happening. #jsarocks
A4. I'm big on @flipgrid for Student Voice, Sway Digital Storytelling and Teams to bring conversations, content, and apps together in one place #fledchat
A4. Working with kids on researching to learn more about the #SDGs. @Buncee is my go-to for having kids create based on what are learning. They will be sharing with some of our partners. Want to use @Flipgrid for their reflections. #FLedChat
A4) there is this tool called @SAFARIMontage where you can #create and #curate#playlists that I might have heard of before 😉. Wanted to drop in and say hello in the first post FETC #FLedChat
A4: 2 of our Ts have empowered their Ss to show their learning thru library Innovation tools : Ss have been using 3D Printing, Minecraft, Unity, Legos, Green Screen videos, and more! #fledchat

@BLee4edu@AprilLa67409173 can’t wait to see their Ss present their knowledge in a few weeks! This should encourage other Ts to empower S Voice and choice- we can support in the library! #FLedChat

A5) interesting video couldn’t tell what the chimp did to solve riddle but that’s probably cause I’m watching on this small screen (and ruining my eyes in the process, lol) #FLedChat
A5. I think having several different eyes on a "problem" can help determine whether something really is a problem or whether it's just perception. Sometimes hearing another opinion can help. #FLedChat
Kristin shares the importance of collaboration and colleagues to avoid isolation. Thanks to technology isolation is now a choice educators make. #fledchat
A6) not going to what platform (check my bio) but with #IPTV there is no need to have TV attached to a coax and you can have flexibility with your classroom(s) design #FLedChat
A7. I think we can start by honoring the diversity in our classrooms and schools intentionally. Let students use their strengths & differences to help & learn from each other. #FLedChat
