#Edchat is a hashtag, a movement—it is a weekly organized Twitter discussion of educators and people interested in education that meet virtually from all over the world. #Edchat serves as a conversation thread on Twitter and is also used for organized weekly discussions.
It's a special cross-hosted episode of the #STEM Everyday podcast as Tori Cameron from the #STEAM up the classroom podcast is his guest while at the same time Chris is Tori's guest. It's an extended episode this week. Listen in https://t.co/UREKzd7819. @STEAMuptheClsrm#edchat
With recess being limited teachers need to look to microbursts to allow children to take a break from learning and hopefully come back ready to learn more. #KeepMoving#Edchat

*PODCAST*
In this series, Ryan Schaaf takes a look at what a modern learner ‘is’ and how teachers can adapt to and serve them.

A1: "Be real" in every way possible. Show staff who you are as a person and an instructional leader, so that they can do the same with you. Make mistakes and model how to learn from them. Take risks in order to encourage staff to do the same. #10Principles
You are likely crossing your fingers that your students are "on" during test weeks. While there are many variables that are out of your control, there is one thing you can do to influence a bit of what happens at home. https://t.co/DWYU0kwhOF#edchat#testing#communication

I love the idea of shifting your mindset as a teacher and making students at the center of learning! How might that look in an early elementary classroom like Kindergarten? #edchat
YES!! My personal mission: have the term “high-risk students” removed from the lexicon. Use “students from high-risk environments” instead. Students aren’t high risk but rather the environments from which they come from are. #resiliencechat#edchat

Describing Betsy DeVos as incompetent misses the larger reality that her purpose is to undo the civil rights movement as far as education is concerned, just as Carson is at HUD to undo the movement in housing & Sessions is doing likewise in the justice dept

Innovation just doesn't happen by accident or by good intentions. Innovation is more a conscious formal process—very different than the obsession in edu with hacking/making. #makered#edpolicy#edchat#stemed What Your Innovation Process Should Look Like https://t.co/wuyGVBvQPG

Using a college admissions test as a statewide summative assessment is a risky option for policymakers & parents. https://t.co/JgckOw4EQv ACT & SAT are not aligned to state standards nor college and career-ready standards. #edchat#highered
Had the privilege of reading #TheZenTeacher on my flight today. WOW! Such an important message for all of us in the classroom. Thank you @thezenteacher
Our current social structure promotes us working as individuals rather than a collective whole. Until we realise we are stronger collaborating with each other than we are competing against each other, we will remain as such. 😳 https://t.co/Hx2UHEe85B 👊🏼 #edchat

What we place on our walls AND how we use it with students can make a difference! Interactive Word Walls can boost student achievement in middle grade classroom! 💥Powerful vocabulary method! #edchat#educhat#middlegrades#middleschool#LANGUAGE#ELLs
This should be a part of every classroom at every level! Get students thinking more and sharing it with others! Here's one more great way to do it. #StudentCentered#edchat
What if STUDENTS created and curated content for learning playlists for their classmates? How much more engaged would students be? How much more would they learn?https://t.co/tLnvhuxR9d#GTTribe#TXed
Wanna know if your teaching style works? Ask the critics! Scale questions and open-ended responses both yield vital feedback. Also ask the questions you DON'T want feedback on- those are the things you NEED to hear! #edchat#FLGI#flippedlearning#flippedclassroom
This! This is why we built @literatorapp with direct instruction in mind. Relationships between Ss and Ts are critically important and if we can foster more meaningful interactions with tech, we know we’re onto something. #edtech#edchat#edtechchat
"The truth is that technology will never replace good teachers, who can create relationships with students and learn students’ strengths and challenges." https://t.co/vyS3ruLNsx#blendedlearning
Update on my "best lesson ever..." Sometimes the best ones are those that don't go quite right! I learned a lot about tip caps: check those seals before you use them! Whoops! #BDNPLN#edchat
#edchat Are we at the point yet where if you are NOT offering re-assessment that you're considered weird and behind? I want to say that to my colleagues, but I'm not sure about how really wide-spread it is. Nothing wrong with a white-lie nudge, I suppose. #masterychat
No student should leave kindergarten (much less k-12 schooling) without a positive label: I’m good at _____. People like me because _______. I contribute meaningfully by ______. If students can’t finish these sentences, why are we surprised when they find unhealthy ways to matter
