My all time favorite tool for digital reading is Curriculet because of its versatility and ease of use (oh, and the price: FREE!). Since it is web-browser based, Curriculet can be used on any device or computer which is a must for my BYOD, 1:1 one day a week with Chromebooks classroom. I can just assign and let my students read!

Screencasting Using the FREE and super easy Screencast O Matic web tool and a $25 headset, I''ve started to create videos that will supplement my explanation of concepts studied in class. For one of my students on homebound instruction, I created a personalized screencast to show her how to navigate Edmodo and answer some of her questions.

One of my favorite tools for curating resources is Edcanvas. With multiple options for sharing via social media and QR codes and embedding in Edmodo and created webpages, Edcanvas is ideal for sharing with other educators and students in 1:1 and BYOD classrooms. I got more in my gallery, and so will you, too.

Megan is the guest moderator on the Canadian Ed Chat (#cdnedchat) on Twitter who enjoys expanding her PLN and learning about new tech tools to improve her teaching and class experience. It was presented by the good people over at the #Edmodo app/website. Edmodo has many advantages for many reasons.

Reflection & QR Codes Usually I''m the trailblazer at my high school: there are a number of programs that I''ve help to start-- the Varsity Swim Team, the PAWS program, letter writing campaign to Southern alumni serving in the military, crafting the 9th grade curriculum, going paperless, and now BYOD. BYOD is first on the list.

The students should be stakeholders in their education and have accountability, responsibility, and be actively engaged in and out of the classroom. Despite criticism, a traditional well-written multiple choice assessment can be a valid assessment tool ( I''m bracing for rebuttals ). see a pattern? I hope this changes soon!

As a way to BUILD the classroom climate, students will be given as their syllabus/class expectations a blank white piece of paper. Adapting some of my paper permission slips (BYOD, PAWS program) to an online format using Google forms. This won''t take me long to do once I get the students on Edmodo. More to come soon!

TodaysMeet.com I really have to thank Cheryl Morris for introducing me to this simple tool last summer and providing me with ideas that I''ve put into action this school year. You may have noticed that the style of the video differs despite using the same tool. Here is a transcript of a Socratic Seminar on Steinbeck''s Of Mice and Men.

I''m fascinated with gamification and using Edmodo to gamify my Odyssey unit , but Mrs. Dause''s approach has got me thinking. The trouble is, there’s such a smorgasbord of awesome teaching tools and techniques that I couldn’t “just have one!” You, too, can connect with her on Edmodo and her website. Yes, I thought, it could!

Fortunately, an increasing number of districts across the country recognize that for student success, we must allow them to learn with the tools they love. Individual schools can decide whether they want to incorporate students’ personal technology into classroom learning and can implement a "bring your own device" (BYOD) program.

While we are implementing this within the confines of the continental US, this project could be adapted to include classrooms around the globe. Using Edmodo, Twitter (#BWP12), Skype or Google Hangouts, students can collaborate on creating and sharing answers. Answers can be in any form as long as they address the question.

So, I''m very intrigued by the flipped classroom concept, but I have a sense of deja vu. The trends should be tools in a teacher''s toolbox. Educational trends need to be more than trends; they need to be solid, well-built tools for longevity in education. Is the flipped classroom model one such tool?

Viewed by some as an effective tool for teaching and learning and by others as a necessary evil, the LMS is ingrained in K-12 education. The net effect is making teachers’ lives easier, so they can spend less time finding and maintaining ad-hoc applications like Edmodo and Moodle, and more time engaging with students. Restoring Faith.
