EdTech Thought (5:35)
EdCamps Are Great!
You should be attending or organizing the best professional development you can get!
EdTech Recommendation (11:12)
Twine - https://twinery.org/
Twine is an open-source tool for telling interactive, nonlinear stories.
You don’t need to write any code to create a simple story with Twine, but you can extend your stories with variables, conditional logic, images, CSS, and JavaScript when you're ready.
Twine publishes directly to HTML, so you can post your work nearly anywhere. Anything you create with it is completely free to use any way you like, including for commercial purposes.
Twine would be great for individual students in grades 5-12.
Featured Content (14:38)
In episode 212, I asked if schools were listening to teachers about a number of issues related to education technology. One of my listeners, Brooke Anne Petrucelli, emailed me to share her thoughts on her experiences as a Technology Coordinator and Technology Literacy teacher. Brooke Anne is definitely doing the work and putting in the effort but she's not getting the results she believes she should be.
I share my thoughts and continue the conversation.
Connect with Brooke Anne!
