D5 of #DitchSummit - Can I just say how much I ❤️retrieval & how much it's already part of my classroom?! In a cool circle of events, I originally learned about RP on DS from @retrievelearn.bsky.social & @patricebain.bsky.social ,who even gave me a pg in her book! Thank U to Dr. Blunt for more ideas!

This project is one of my favorites things I've ever been a part of. Check out Our Chestnut Project! 10 years of kids being part of one of the biggest de-extinction projects to ever exist! #tlap #scitlap tantasquachestnut.weebly.com

Notice anything different about Google Slides? The selection box now has corner circles and side handles. Even better: resizing multiple objects scales borders and text proportionally. No more fixing after shrinking or enlarging! #EduSky #EdTech #GoogleEdu

I learned about this chart at a recent MassCUE AI Palooza - I think it would be a great school-wide resource,everyone can reference the same scale to use with their Ss. #edusky #ditchbook #tlap @ditchthattextbook.com - I thought of you immediately and wanted to share. leonfurze.com/2024/08/28/u...

You know how we are bombarded with AI tools for edu? I made this informational text and liked it but I have no idea what program I used. Does this format look familiar? I think I used state science standards to create it. Help! #EduSky #ISTELive2025 #ditchbook #tlap #AI

Not gonna lie, I'm nailing summer school. Focusing on retrieval, exec. functioning, reading/writing, & data. Ss are coming more than they are required. The vibe is that "this is actually kind of fun"! Today Ss are researching local restaurants and writing CERs to convince me to get them some apps.

Today I worked on making an AI Assistant for my BTS SlideDeck for Families. I tried Gems, SchoolAI, and NotebookLM. All do a little of what I want, but nothing was perfect. More productive struggle later! #EduSky

TODAY Google announced a BUNCH of great new updates! This year I'm especially impressed and excited by how many of these updates are FREE. Google is also expanding access to features that used to be premium (i.e. Google Vids) to EVERYONE! #GoogleEDU #ISTE2025

Feeling disconnected from my edu friends. I cancelled my Twitter account last year with hopes of 🦋 Bluesky taking it’s place. Am I just not on here enough? Are people still back @ Twitter? Chats are just not the same. FB and TT give me some connection, but I need my people ! #EduSky #tlap #ditchbook
