Digital Citizenship is just not engaging to my HS students. We use CSM and the topics are relevant and well-done, but the kids are not buying in. Looking to gamify. Suggestions for low to no-cost options to insert my own (well, CSM) content? @TECHTalkGA

Reminder that kids are not "falling behind" academically during these crazy times. Standards, benchmarks, and accountability measures are all arbitrarily created by schools and can just as easily be readjusted as needed.

A4: I don’t know how my grown kids and others do it! I am so thankful to just have this to worry about. No little kids at home or other responsibilities. I’ve more than paid my dues though! #TECHtalkGA

A2: through the day, I fail at breaks. By mid afternoon I am better about getting up out of my chair and eating, stretching my legs, etc #TECHtalkGA

I know there's lots of teachers out there who wish they'd have paid more attention at all those workshops we've given! Right @edtechteach3 ? #techtalkga

A5: I think they all get it now. That tech IS important, it's NOT going away, and it CAN be used for good. And I tell you what, our tech people have never been as highly appreciated as they've been the last couple of weeks! #techtalkga

A4: This socially distant thing has helped us become more personal in some ways. Through Google Meet I've seen my co-workers homes, kids, pets. We are learning more about each other. #TECHtalkGA

#TECHtalkGA I miss all of you in my PLN! Getting my Specialist and all my free time is gone. But I check in and read all your posts when I can. Even when "attendance" is low, remember that there are those like me these days who you ARE reaching by sharing your conversation.
