Tech Study Hall

Join us as we celebrate TechMas in this year’s Tech the Halls episode! In this episode we discuss a “Few of My Favorite Ways to Research using Google. There is a recap of how I first started to record data for research and ways in which we can offer our students some voice and choice to curate data in their own way for later learning and productivity. As a special holiday gift, I offer a Google Slide Template for note cards too! (See the Link Below in the Show Notes!) Keep learning and be well everyone! Most of all, happy holidays and let’s hope for a happy and healthy New Year!

Keynote

From Fall Cue 2019 - Dr. Catlin Tucker

In this episode we discuss observing readiness in our students to learn. We have a special guest, Dr. Lynette Scotese-Wojtila, to talk about observing signs of readiness in our learners. Dr. Scotese-Wojtila co-hosts a bi-weekly podcast on those in the spectrum and others with neurological differences using an approach she coined called The S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Approach(SM). (We’ve linked the podcast and website below.) Dr. Scotese-Wojtila is an Autism specialist, but notes that we all need to be in a state of readiness to learn in our classroom for lessons to truly take hold. It is a great reflective episode as we talk about meeting our students where they learn to provoke in them the best that they have the potential to be. Come learn with us!

My special guest is Ann Radefeld from the Shaker Heights School District in Ohio where she teaches French to 5th & 6th graders while adding some real-world flair blending it with the best of technology. She makes a great case for making this a part of any subject in the curriculum with just a smidge of creativity and research. Many thanks to Ann for joining us on this episode.
