@goodreads I’m a high school teacher (& long-time user) having technical issues w/ signing up new students due to OTP problems. I filled out your contact form last Thursday & never heard back. Can you please DM me? We are eager to get started. 📚 Thank you!
Thanks to a brilliant CFP, we made lemonade with our canceled @ncte presentation. Did our best to capture the energy of a panel presentation on digital annotation & teacher ed with @remikalir @MichelleSprouse @dr_jdean #literacies #annotation #TeacherEd scholarworks.wmich.edu/wte/v…
Thank you so much for supporting our work and attending our session, @AndreaZellner. I was honored to co-author a chapter with @ProfJPizzo under the stewardship of @shelbiewitte. We hope you enjoy our book, Writing Can Change Everything! @ncte

I can’t wait to listen!
I was interviewed this summer by NWP host Tanya Baker. I'm anxiously awaiting the release. Check out a copy of Writing Can Change Everything. @LGZreader and I collaborated on an #SEL-inspired chapter. Also, check out these links.

@BrianLehrer For my classroom, what’s the best combo of windows open, A/C with outside air, and air filters?
Proud to have co-authored a piece with my esteemed NJ colleague, @ProfJPizzo. Our chapter discusses an approach (utilizing creative writing & fiction) to encourage students to respond to tragedy & loss with empathy. Many thanks to @shelbiewitte & @ncte for featuring our work.
Check out the new release of @ncte's Writing Can Change Everything: Middle Level Kids Writing Themselves into the World edited by @shelbiewitte ? Be sure to check out the chapter that @LGZreader & I co-authored: "Conveying Sympathy through Carefully Crafted Words..." @NJCTENews

@GoogleForEdu Hey Google. There was a fun Emoji coding activity on Made with Code. Do you still have it on #codewithgoogle? I can't find it. Thanks!

Had so much fun playing around with annotation tools in the "Yes, You Can Write On It" workshops. Tech tools used: @edpuzzle @vialogues @hypothes_is @googledocs. It was a blast to facilitate. Drew's education students are fantastic! Thank you @teachKHT @MsKingNYC @DrewTEACHnj.
Loving part 2 of @LGZreader’s workshop “Yes, You Can Write On It!” Can’t wait to annotate video with my students this semester! #DrewTEACH

To my educator/researcher friends:
Could you take a glance at your bookshelf and recommend some good books from SAGE Publishing? Research methods, education titles, etc. I have a substantial credit to burn & would appreciate suggestions. Thanks! #NCTE @ncte_elate @writingproject

I agree. Marc Prensky, who invented the term, is also worried about it! "Prensky says...there are older people who are tech-savvy and younger people who aren’t." huffpost.com/entry/digital-n… #NCTEchat
A5: I’m worried about the assumptions made when broadly painting all students as “digital natives.” #NCTEchat

This is an important question. On the one hand, I feel charged to help students navigate and think critically about the texts they encounter outside of school. But I do worry about the danger of "schoolifying" their spaces. #NCTEchat
