@edutooters @sociology @academicchatter
@mackiwg @wfryer @crash Sure, what do you suggest? We want to make it easy for educators to join and sign up, then export following list. It might also be fun yo create an csv export file based on criteria by grade level or for librarians? Inviting @dougholton for this conversation since he has taken lead on curating corrections to edutooters list. 🙂
Great list of Mastodon resources for educators by @mguhlin: https://www.mguhlin.org/p/fediverse-tootorials-including-mastodon.html #EduTooter

@crash @dendari so? You can follow @mguhlin@mastodon.education or ignore me 🤣 Anyways, crash knows all this since crash has been around for awhile! Old timer.
@wfryer @crash @mackiwg general tips: https://go.mgpd.org/feditoots
@HIH_Homeschool @Bookmarkers @edutooters Retrieval Practice or Practice testing is a research backed strategy. Retrieval Practice (d=0.46) is often referred to as Practice Testing. The Visible Learning MetaX database describes it as a way to support long-term retention. It also assists you in increasing access to the “to-be-remembered” information. More here - https://blog.tcea.org/tag/retrieval-practice/ and there is a website dedicated to this, too.

@chris_spackman @ericcurts @edutooters Most districts vet extensions before rolling them out to school owned Chromebooks. The real issue isn’t student devices that get wiped and seldom have personal info. It’s school principals and teachers who save confidential info, reports, and student data without clear protocols in place. There are tools that can be used to mitigate those vulnerabilities but the real challenge is cybersafety and security. It has gotten better.
Hope you are doing well today. Do you agree or disagree with these definitions? If yes, why? If no, why not?
