I was also adamant that social media had no place in an educational setting, but most of you who read this blog know about my radical change of mind in regards to this.

A few weeks ago, I made a commitment to visit schools that are using social media, smartphones, texting, and other digital technologies, as a vital part of daily classroom instruction.

Each September I am excited like most educators to get back to business doing everything I can to help students succeed. Many of the initiatives I am about to briefly discuss are not new to the field of education, but they are to NMHS. By regularly performing 3-5 minute walkthroughs I will now have more of a presence in classrooms.

Just as it is a best practice for educators to model with math and reading and writing for students, it is also a best practice for all tech-savvy stakeholders to model for the tech-tentative. For example, create a live word cloud with AnswerGarden or Poll Everywhere in response to a school-wide question to help focus the discussion.
