In New York State, Google Earth and Maps are now blocked for students. As a result, I have been playing around with using 360cities.net and their 360 photos as a replacement for Virtual Field Trip activities. #EduSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyGW...

My own advice from the old Twitter days is relevant here & now I think: Don’t worry about how many followers you have or don’t have, rather, connect with people from whom you can learn and grow, and be sure to also follow people who challenge your perspective & ideas in a respectful way. #EduSky

How cool is this?! My wife had a student choose to build a pinball machine to showcase his learning about a career he researched. It even featured a "boss battle" that when defeated, lifted the final fact! 🙌🕹️🎯#SayYestoFCS #Gamification #ChoiceBoards #EDUsky
