. - From Pinecrest Preparatory Middle-High Administration Letter to Parents , February 22, 2012 When I first read and watched a news story about this Florida charter school''s letter to parents encouraging them to get their kids off of Facebook because of the problems socialmedia activities were causing during the school day, it got me thinking.
While it is difficult to narrow down my choices, these are sites I visit and read just about every single day and important nodes in my own professionallearning network. Free Web Tool Edmodo : A total online teaching environment, that I can say I have used as both teacher and administrator. Here’s my 2012 Edublog nominations.
One way to do this is to take a look back at what it was like for educators before the advent of socialmedia. Teachers can seek out experts via edWeb.net , Edmodo , Facebook , Twitter , Google+ , Skype , Pinterest , and other socialmedia and educational websites. Follow him on Twitter @newteacherhelp.
This year I want to try to maximize my professionallearning by engaging in some of the following: Use Edmodo : I have been fascinated with the possibilities of this socialmedia-like tool for over a year now. I look forward to using and learning about it from a classroom teacher''s perspective.
SocialMedia is not just a buzz phrase! Google Apps For Education A new way of learning and collaboration. Twitter has changed so much from the "What are you doing now" tag line to becoming one of the largest Personal ProfessionalLearning Networks available to educators. You aren''t using twitter yet?
Questions from the Audience: How do you deal with socialmedia website age limits for elementary students? Kid friendly sites are Wikispaces, Edmodo, Diigo. How do you create a professionallearning environment? Everyone can move folks in their own environments forward. It''s not one size fits all.
Your Local ProfessionalLearning Community (PLC) Why? A professionallearning community (PLC) shares resources and discusses specific student performances. There are many websites that bring teachers together, like Graphite, Google+ Groups, Edmodo Communities, and more. Don't follow people aimlessly.
This is a huge worldwide experiment to demonstrate the power of globally-connected learning. There are professional development sessions for individual pre-service teachers, in-service educators, and other adults; as well as projects for entire classrooms to join in.
Start using an LMS (Learning Management System) such as Google Classroom , Schoology , Canvas , Edmodo , Moodle. Using a web-based central location to communicate, collaborate, assign, assess, and create allows for great opportunities for teachers and students to efficiently learn especially in a real-wold context.
Most schools now have online learning management systems, including Blackboard, Moodle, and Edmodo are just a few. It’s a way of acknowledging and honoring the achievements of my colleagues, and also an opportunity for me to learn, too—and that’s inspirational. Create a social group just for collaborating teachers.
The Geo-Educator Community is a space for geo-educators to share resources, collaborate on projects, learn from one another and give support. You can connect with the Geo-Educator Community through a variety of online platforms including Twitter , Facebook and the secure educator site, Edmodo.
