From Marisa: Q1: Has anyone tried out the Media Albums in your course or group? #SchoologyChat

A1: My art teachers have been using that feature and like it. The Ss@have been taking pics of their work to build a portfolio #schoologychat

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: We have been using Media albums in Eden Prairie for several years as part of our SAS model-Snap Annotate, and Share. #SchoologyChat

A1: we use it all the time to share photos of things happening in class - kids love it! #SchoologyChat

Love media albums for first day of course selfies. Also have Ss put videos in there for all to see if we don't get to present #schoologychat

DocPChemistry Apr 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: I have had Ss submit videos to me and I posted them to a media album within our course. Not sure if Ss went back to look #SchoologyChat

BScholl33 Apr 4 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: Ts have used it to post things going in the classroom and even give Ss the opportunity to post their own pics of projects #SchoologyChat

A1: Yes! In fact, I just released a whole PD course around integrating Media Albums. ❤️ them! #SchoologyChat

In reply to @macnbeans

FarPam Apr 4 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A1 I have a teacher who is using media albums to share Internet finds. i.e. political cartoons they can view and discuss #SChoologyChat

MrsLouder Apr 4 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A1: I have underutilized them I am sure! I have used them for collaboration in journalism for photos taken for stories #SchoologyChat

I like these applications of Media Albums. Welcomes parents into the school day. Photos make the moment special! #SchoologyChat

In reply to @mikeleague

A1: I use them more now with my staff but I've used them in Groups with Ss as well. #schoologychat

In reply to @techie_teacher1

MrsDPatt Apr 4 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A1: wanting to use them next year to store pictures of teachers being innovative! #SchoologyChat

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:15 PM EDT

A1: Pt 2. The power of media albums is that you can showcase learner's demonstration of mastery to an authentic audience! #SchoologyChat

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:15 PM EDT

But it's so late! I could sure use a @SchoologyPillow! #SchoologyChat

In reply to @Schamato, @SchoologyPillow

A1 cont: I have also had Ss add to media albums for CW class. They created a character & then picked a celeb that would match #SchoologyChat

jpkilner Apr 4 @ 9:16 PM EDT

What is your school/district policy on devices? #schoologychat

In reply to @tanyapsnook

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:16 PM EDT

Q2 Coming up on #SchoologyChat

megan_nussbaum Apr 4 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A1: 1 use I've seen is using them to document steps of a science experiment for when you can't get around to every group. #SchoologyChat

KristieLBurk Apr 4 @ 9:16 PM EDT

Our art teachers have Ss post their artwork for others to critique #SchoologyChat

FarPam Apr 4 @ 9:17 PM EDT

We are BYOD and I use them all the time in my class! #schoologychat

In reply to @jpkilner

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Q2: What are some unique ways you could use albums or portfolios to engage parents/admin/students as authentic audiences? #SchoologyChat

megan_nussbaum Apr 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A1: Another idea is for show and tell for your little Ss! Add pics from home instead of lugging in the object. #SchoologyChat

mikeleague Apr 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Would love to see this! #SchoologyChat

In reply to @megan_nussbaum

MsKalbach Apr 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

In reply to @KristieLBurk

apptasticteach Apr 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

also use them when I give group work to keep them accountable. Record a video of what was accomplished. Need to share w group #schoologychat

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A1, pt 2: I used them this year to post ASL translation videos for our drama club script so Ss could watch and memorize. #schoologychat

jpkilner Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Great idea; I do the same w/Google Slides presentation for my exp. steps. Albums are already in @Schoology. #onelessstep #schoologychat

In reply to @megan_nussbaum, @Schoology

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2: I like sharing all the great things that happen in my class - admin and parents don't always see #schoologychat

dmoyscience Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

I like this idea, #SchoologyChat

In reply to @megan_nussbaum

mikeleague Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2: I like the assignment idea - like a Pinterest Board. I also like a Mystery Challenge assignment. #schoologychat

DocPChemistry Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2: As a T, to give parents a look into the room to see what labs are being done. #SchoologyChat

BScholl33 Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2: We have students use Digital portfolios through @Schoology & Google to present to parents during Student-led Conferences #schoologychat

In regards to #schoologynext I say @robert_schuetz makes a large reservation for us on night #2 at a deep dish pizza joint! #schoologychat

jpkilner Apr 4 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2: Wonderful opportunity for artifact sharing at student led conferences. #schoologychat

KristieLBurk Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2 media albums -great ice breakers - as an intro, have Ts upload a picture from their camera roll to share. Excellent opener!#SchoologyChat

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: on a side note I have parents sign photo consent on my syllabus above and beyond what district requires #schoologychat

MrsLouder Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: I would love to see pics of school events posted on the faculty page! Maybe @DrVosh_DHS would give me access to upload? #SchoologyChat

MrsDPatt Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: I like the idea of providing parents a glimpse into your classroom. #SchoologyChat

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: Some Ts have been using Instagram to keep Ps informed but they're now transitioning to Albums. They post vids of ASL... #schoologychat

robert_schuetz Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2 Media Albums & Portfolios allow Ss to make their "learnings" visible to authentic audiences. Motivating & Interactive! #SchoologyChat

MrsToflinski Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: I think media albums could be used like a FB album, to show parents what is happening in the classroom. #SchoologyChat

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: ...translations of vocabulary words for Ps to use with their Ss at home. #schoologychat

DocPChemistry Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2: pt 2. I have a class Instagram, but parents may find it easier to view an album on @schoology. #SchoologyChat

mikeleague Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

A2 (cont’d): Photos of Math in the real world - construction site, receipts, etc. #SchoologyChat

Schamato Apr 4 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Schamato Apr 4 @ 9:21 PM EDT

#schoologychat - Every year, parents and students can monitor growth and progress

MrsToflinski Apr 4 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A2: I have recently started using the Portfolio in place of a semester exam. #SchoologyChat

#SchoologyChat I would like to be able to assign them per marking period and use them for my journalism classes too

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:22 PM EDT

Ooh! Good idea! Can you elaborate on how you do this? #SchoologyChat

In reply to @MrsToflinski

techie_teacher1 Apr 4 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A2: I think it is a great way for our elementary kids to show parents stuff they have done on their iPads (chatterpix etc) #schoologychat

macnbeans Apr 4 @ 9:23 PM EDT

Q3 Coming up on #schoologychat Then I hand the baton to @tanyapsnook

Can you assign a rubric to the portfolio, or is it more pass/fail? #schoologychat

In reply to @JaredRLopatin, @MrsToflinski

DocPChemistry Apr 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A2: pt3 as a coach, to post videos/pix of form or drills to do on the athletes own at home. #SchoologyChat

JaredRLopatin Apr 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

What are brag sheets? #SchoologyChat

In reply to @FarPam

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

You should really think of parent accounts - we had parents pose as kids at previous district - they started fights.... #SchoologyChat

In reply to @macnbeans, @MrsToflinski

wilthomas3 Apr 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A2: Ss post cover photos of books they are reading and give short review captions on the books. #SchoologyChat

Don’t think portfolios can be graded yet. We talked to @Schoology about that as a feature request #SchoologyChat

In reply to @jpkilner, @JaredRLopatin, @MrsToflinski, @Schoology

megan_nussbaum Apr 4 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A2: I've recently used Albums in PLC Groups in a PLC Challenge. Ts will post motivational quotes, classroom pics, etc. #SchoologyChat

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Q3: What are some ways Media Albums/Portfolios could be used to tell your story, network with colleagues, or grow your PLN? #SchoologyChat

Schamato Apr 4 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A2: #schoologychat - Our Visual Lit teacher is using them to collect his students film work.

apptasticteach Apr 4 @ 9:25 PM EDT

Haven't done much w porfolios on the iPad. Something on my todo list for changes in the class next year. #schoologychat

A3: I see portfolios being a way to share what happens in class with other teachers - learn as critical friends #schoologychat

Schamato Apr 4 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3: I cringe when I say this, but it could/might be interesting to use with SLOs or PLOs and artifacts #SchoologyChat (ughh...)

mikeleague Apr 4 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3: Cool to showcase artifacts and work. I like Media Albums as a "Hall of Fame”. Jealous of @jill_riceits posts with pics #schoologychat

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:26 PM EDT

Parent accounts comply with FERPA also! #SchoologyChat

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:27 PM EDT

I have used them for my SLOs on dual credit classes #SchoologyChat

In reply to @Schamato

MrsToflinski Apr 4 @ 9:27 PM EDT

Yes. My Ss submit an "assignment" that let's me know the portfolio is ready to grade. #SchoologyChat

@robert_schuetz #schoologychat - I do cheat the system for GROUP badges-I make a course, add the kids and then archive it. Add badges there

In SGY, digital badges can be assigned to Ss in courses, but at this time, not in Groups. Like stickers, yes, kids love 'em! #schoologyChat

A6: #Schoologychat - better live time text/sms feature builtin. Like Hangouts. We used to have Remind as 3rd party app

MrKlinge Apr 4 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A6: I think that Groups could get a nice upgrade that included more collaborative voice/choice and survey options for members #schoologychat

joseful Apr 4 @ 9:54 PM EDT

tanyapsnook Apr 4 @ 9:53 PM EDT

I agree with this - we need to spend more PD time to increase meaningful use #SchoologyChat
