In this episode of “ Ask the Tech Coach (https://www.teachercast.net/episodes/ask-the-tech-coach/) ,” Jeff and Nick share secrets for what makes a fantastic and usable Tech Coach website. With so many options, both paid and free, available, it’s easy to spend a ton of time creating a digital hub that nobody uses or wants.  The secret to any website is to make great content and make sure that your users have it available to them BEFORE they know that they want or need it. In today's podcast, we take a look at websites from the perspective of both the Tech Coach and the busy teacher. In this episode, we discuss: Reflections and reactions to Episode 19 “Creating 1:1 Relationships with Teachers” Is it possible to make everyone happy?

Congratulations, it’s a new school year and you are about to walk into the new term as an Instructional Technology Coach.  The first thing that usually goes through your mind is a ton of questions. What is a Tech Coach? What does my school district think a tech coach is? How will my staff find me and my thoughts and ideas? What is most important to any Tech Coach is the ability to hit the ground running on the first day.  But how do you do this?There are many blog posts (https://www.iste.org/explore/articleDetail?articleid=433) that agree that the most important thing that you need when starting your school year is an open mind and the ability to make positive relationships? I absolutely agree that strong working relationships are the key to any successful Instructional Technology program. But what can we do before we meet our staff members? The best thing that we can do when we meet our staff members is to be completely engaged in their needs and be ready to meet their challenges hand in hand. Your role as an Instructional Technology Coach is to make the teachers life a little bit easier and the only way you can do this is if you walk into the new school year with these three things neatly tucked into your back pocket. Download this Instructional Technology Coaching Poster Below! 1) Instructional Technology WebsiteWhen starting off the school year, it’s important to have an organized collection of resources from which you can not only deploy at a moment’s notice but share with your staff when they are seeking support.  When planning your website, it’s important to remember that you are creating this website for your teachers and NOT for yourself. You don’t want to make the mistake of creating the perfect website that you adore but is not useful and friendly to your teachers. When planning your website, think about the low hanging fruit in your district and ask yourself if THEY will be able to find what they need when you send them a link to your resource site.

El pasado sábado 10 de junio de 2017 tuvo lugar el evento del premio Edublogs en el que se entregaron las peonzas o premios a los mejores blogs educativos en ocho categorías diferentes. Espiral Habla se trasladó al evento y diversos corresponsales entrevistaron a diversas personas.

I'll bet you've gazed out at your students and thought:I wonder if some kids aren't being challenged.If I personalize instruction...my your room will be unmanageable.Last spring, I had a student teacher. He was doing well, but one aspect of his instruction...and mine for that matter, that needed work was personalization. While he was busy teaching, I had some downtime and a chance to observe my kids and think. I came up with a method to personalize by combining 2 powerful tech tools...Google Classroom and Edublogs. We employed these 2 tools to offer enrichment to any student who wanted to go deeper in a particular unit.

Conoemos a Marta Ciprés, una de las coordinadoras del XI premio Edublogs. Nos cuenta el cambio sustancial en las categorías y sobre todo de la novedad de incoroporación de otros recursos como las Wikis, Sites o Páginas de Redes Sociales. Las inscripciones están abiertas hasta el 2 de abril de 2017.

#NerdyCast Episode 5 is here and ready for your listening pleasure. This Episode's special guest comes all the way from the future and Australia. Summer Howarth (@EduSum) is one of my new favorite people and I really wanted her on the #NerdyCast after I had a chance to talk with her at ISTE12. Summer and I discuss the finner points of Middle School, her dad's shark attack, Learning Spaces, "The Shire" (An Australian Jersey Shore) and other important educational topics. Summer also dropped a huge exclusive during the Episode. It was the first "exclusive" in #NerdyCast history, so stay tuned because it could bow your mind. You can read Summer's blog, A View from the Middle at EduSum.EduBlogs.org and folloer her on Twitter at @EduSum. Enjoy the #NerdyCast! You can find my #NerdyCast on iTunes (Sometimes take a day to load to iTunes) or Podomatic. - The Nerdy Teacher

Greetings CCSD Administrators! I will be using this blog post to demonstrate how one might use Edublogs to host an adminstrative podcast.  This will be more of a show and tell as there is a waiting period for an edublog to … Continue reading →

James Farmer came into the Lunch Time Leaders virtual studio all the way from the Edublogs mansion in Australia. Currently, he’s CEO of Edublogs, the largest education blog host on the web, and co-founder of Incsub, the original WordPress MU development agency.
