EdTech Thought

Understanding and integrating technology in education is more than just using new tools; it's about tapping into their potential to enhance teaching methods. As teaching styles evolve, so do tech tools. Here's a quick guide:

  1. Identifying Potential: Each educator should discover the transformative power of tech tools available to them.
  2. Adapting Takes Time: Remember the initial struggle with projectors or whiteboards? Like them, mastering new tech requires patience.
  3. Choose What Fits: Not all tools align with every teaching style. Find those that resonate with you and your students.
  4. Trust Your Intuition: Each classroom and teacher is unique. Opt for technology that complements your teaching goals.
  5. Challenge Past Notions: Don't shy away due to previous tech setbacks. Shift your perspective from 'daunting' to 'empowering'.
  6. Unlock Possibilities: Leading educators are leveraging tech to redefine teaching. Don’t miss out on potential game-changers.
  7. Stay Current: Technology isn’t just the future of teaching; it’s the present.

Optimize your teaching approach by embracing technology, understanding its potential, and integrating tools that enhance your classroom experience. Don't let apprehensions deter you. Embrace the present and future of education.

Christie Cloud chatted with me at ISTE Live 2023 all about Curipod!

Curipod's mission: "For too long, education has been focusing on remembering, recalling and memorizing. We have seen the greatness of what a curious person can accomplish. We are on a mission to spark curiosity in peoples lives and make questioning everything something you do everyday, because it is fun and energising."

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
