Comments on Google Teacher Tribe? 888-563-3228 Description Teacher Tribe is a weekly podcast designed to give K-12 educators practical ideas for using G Suite and other Google tools hosted by Matt Miller (Ditch That Textbook) and Kasey Bell (Shakeup Learning). Website https://googleteachertribe.com/ Opinion I loved the intro and the energy. Matt sounds great, but Kasey sounds like she is recording in the bathroom of a tunnel where she is about three feet away from her blue yeti microphone set up to pick up in all directions. What saves this show is I learned two things I didn't' know - so the content saved it. I tuned in to hear some time-saving tips, but you've decided to bury the lead (I would put the new at the end).

Thanks guys! Stephanie Fitzpatrick (Chicago) -- I know there was mention of google expeditions coming to chromebooks, is there a date that this will come to chromebook platform? (Expeditions page on Google for Education) Android Apps on Chromebooks 6 Android Apps to Try on a Chromebook Lisa Scumpieru (Hagerstown, MD) -- Hello. I listened to episode 99 and I liked the idea of Jamboard as a portfolio system. I have not used it as a portfolio system, but I think that it most definitely could be used in that manner. This is how I think it could work: Set up a Jamboard with pages that have two pages per marking period to start. Have one page named "Best Work and Reflection" and the other page as "Goals". Best Work - students would bring it in from their Drive. Reflection - placed on a post-it next to the work. Goals - This would be student choice - let them draw their goals or find pictures to represent what they will do for the next marking period. Have them add one post-it explaining their work. To go a step further with this, have the students screencast their Jams explaining their portfolio and then add it to Google Classroom or even a Google Site. Note: When a teacher sets up the Jamboard template, all they need to do is add the link in Google Classroom and Make a Copy for each student. On the teachers Jamboard, each student shows up as a separate Jam. Teachers can pop-in and check the students' work as they are doing it. If you would like me to record this, I would be willing to do that, but I wasn't sure if it would be too long.

Pero debemos tomárnoslo en serio. Sin prisa pero sin pausa. Este curso has de dar un paso adelante en esa necesaria transformación que debemos afrontar y que hagas algo, que pruebes algo que todavía no hayas hecho. Siempre con los alumnos en la mente, claro. Algo que esté basado en su realidad, que les haga protagonistas y que produzca en ellos un aprendizaje duradero y para la vida. Y para que esto se produzca hay varios aspectos importantes que debemos tener en cuenta: Las ideas. Es importante, pero no es lo único.Relaciones. Cuando aprendemos juntos, aprendemos mejor.Emociones. Conecta los conocimientos emocionalmente. sin emoción, no hay aprendizaje.Dejar que los alumnos hagan, dejar que se equivoquen, investiguen, corran riesgos… Se aprende haciendo.Más ideas:Ten en cuenta los intereses de los alumnos. Colabora con tus compañeros, abre las puertas de tu aula. El proyecto educativo de un centro siempre va a tener mucha más repercusión en nuestros alumnos cuando se construye en conjunto. Todos a una. Involucra a las familias, ábreles también las puertas a ellos. Mantenlos informados de todo lo que se está haciendo y lo que están aprendiendo sus hijos. Escuela y familia debe estar lo más unida posible. Si hablamos de que el aprendizaje tiene que ser real, un aprendizaje para la vida y un aprendizaje globalizado, en el que no hay compartimentación en materias, la escuela y la familia debemos ser uno también, para darle mucho más sentido a lo que estamos haciendo dentro de nuestros centros.No introduzcas esa metodología que ahora está tan de moda y que suena fenomenal, solo porque es ahora trending Topic. Búscale el sentido, tu sentido, el de tus alumnos. Piensa en ellos primero, que sean partícipes y no solo eso, sino que protagonistas. Nunca pierdas la curiosidad, la inquietud. Debemos ser inquietos, no acomodarnos en lo que sabemos y quedarnos aislados. La curiosidad, según la neurociencia, pone al cerebro en modo aprendizaje. Es esencial para la apertura y la flexibilidad mentalCuriosidad: aspecto emocional de los seres vivos, que engendra la exploración, investigación y el aprendizaje.

¡Ya estamos aquí otra vez! Y sí, has leído bien en el título. Hoy empezamos una serie de episodios que tienen como objetivo mejorar tus clases a través del Aprendizaje Cooperativo. Será, como dijimos en el episodio anterior, una nueva manera de formarte, lo que he llamado un curso-podcast. Menuda creatividad para crear este nombre, ¿eh? Agradecimientos Antes de empezar, quiero agradecer los comentarios que me han dejado dos profesionales que admiro: Beatriz Montesinos y Juan Daniel Sobrado. Aquí puedes escuchar la entrevista que hice a Juan Daniel Sobrado en relación a los Escape Rooms en educación. ¡Ah!, y no olvides echarle un vistazo a su curso online en EduEscapeRoom.com. Con este fantástico curso, muy completo e inspirador, por cierto, aprendí a crear mis propios Escape Rooms. Presentamos este curso-podcast Empezaremos casi desde cero, con un nivel de principiante, y evidentemente iremos elevando este nivel a medida que avancemos. ¿A quién va dirigido? A cualquier docente o futuro docente que quiera mejorar sus clases. No quiero abusar de la teoría. Más bien al contrario, serán actividades prácticas para que lleves a cabo mañana mismo en tu aula. El nuevo modelo que vamos a seguir, este Aprendizaje Dirigido por Podcast, ADP, si queréis, de sus siglas, debe tener un componente fuertemente ilustrativo y así voy a intentar que sea. Se trata de que veas la utilidad de estas dinámicas que vamos a ir presentando. Y que creas en ellas. Eso es fundamental. Y es lo primero. Si no confías en que esta metodología vaya a mejorar sustancialmente tu clase, no es necesario que sigas escuchando porque seguramente tengas cosas mejores en las que invertir tu tiempo. Serán 10 episodios, e intentaré que sea uno a la semana. Objetivos del curso-podcast Durante estos 10 episodios: - Haremos una introducción al aprendizaje cooperativo. - Aplicaremos unas dinámicas básicas iniciales. - Distinguiremos entre grupos base y grupos esporádicos y aprenderemos a crearlos. - Diseñaremos nuestros roles cooperativos. - Profundizaremos en más dinámicas cooperativas. - Analizaremos cómo evaluar usando la metodología cooperativa. - Introduciremos dinámicas de cohesión de grupos. - Veremos algunas herramientas digitales que nos pueden ayudar a gestionar el cooperativo. - Reflexionaremos sobre todo lo aprendido y haremos una breve introducción sobre cómo integrar el cooperativo con el ABP y el modelo Flipped Learning, dando lugar a posibles curso-podcasts futuros. - Y seguramente aprendas algunas cosas más por el camino. Mi trabajo será presentarte estos contenidos, y lo haré a través de una historia. - Tu trabajo será, si confías en esta metodología que vamos a ir presentando, llevar algunas ideas a cabo en tu clase al día siguiente. Es fácil que las cosas no salgan bien la primera vez que las pruebas. Habrá dinámicas que den muy buenos resultados a la primera y otras en las que tardes más tiempo conseguirlo. Y si en algún momento lo necesitas, podrás preguntarme todo lo que quieras. A lo largo de este curso-podcast incluiré varias pruebas de evaluación formativas. Serán unos formularios opcionales que podrás rellenar y te permitirán conocer cuánto estás aprendiendo. También habrá un formulario de evaluación final después del décimo episodio y si lo superas, recibirás un certificado y una insignia por haber completado el curso.

Today, we are chatting about one of my favorite topics: Digital Differentiation with G Suite! Differentiation is a big buzzword in teaching, but it is often easier said than done. Let’s discover ways to use our favorite Google tools to level the playing field and make differentiation a reality in your classroom. This student-centered teaching strategy helps us reach all learners. G Suite tools help teachers and students communicate and manage multiple assignments with ease. Listen closely for step-by-step instructions, implementation ideas, and some Google tips that will save you time and reap many benefits for you and your students. I hope this episode inspires you to dig deeper into differentiated instruction, and how to use the tools you have available to support all of the learners in your classroom. In This Episode: [00:28] - Kasey welcomes listeners to the show and reveals today’s topic: Digital Differentiation — with G Suite Tools. [01:17] - This week’s shoutout goes to Our Lady of the Lake Catholic School in Mandeville, LA. They made it through the Dynamic Learning Workshop just before school let out! Learn more about The Dynamic Learning Workshop here and the online course. [03:07] - Let’s discuss digital differentiation using G Suite and why this is such a hot topic. [04:01] - Kasey refers back to the master of differentiated instruction, Carol Ann Tomlinson, who has authored several books on the topic: Managing a Differentiate Classroom How to Differentiate Instruction The Differentiated Classroom [04:56] - Learn what differentiation is and is not. [06:31] - Dig into the 3 components of digital differentiation from Susan Oxvenad. Essential Questions Flexible Learning Paths Teacher as Facilitator [08:11] - Kasey mentions three key areas that can be differentiated: Content, Product, and Process. [08:47] - Why differentiate digitally? Provide Flexible Learning Paths Develop Future-Ready Skills Provide an Effective Way to Use Digital Tools FOR Learning (not just an end product) [09:31] - Kasey breaks down the different Google Tools that teachers can use to support differentiation, including Google Classroom, Google Forms, and Google Slides. Differentiating Assignments in Google Classroom [10:13] - Google Classroom allows teachers to send assignments to only selected students rather than the whole class. [11:14] - Kasey provides some tips for using Google Classroom in conjunction with differentiated assignments (full blog post). Tips for Naming Differentiated Assignments in Google Classroom Always number and use consistent naming conventions For differentiated assignments, consider a group or individual identifier in the assignment title. (Ex: Group 4, Special Assignment, Extra Credit, EC Sarah Jones, or come up with your own consistent naming convention.) Remember the name of the assignment names Drive files. Tips for Differentiated Assignment Directions in GC Get specific with your directions! The more information that is available in Google Classroom, the fewer excuses students have for not completing the assignment and the fewer interruptions you are likely to have. Attach a rubric if you have one! Resource: How to Package Your Digital Assignments Tips for Group Differentiated Assignments in GC Designate a group leader in the assignment. The group leader is responsible for creating any new files and “turning in.” Consider asking students to submit a reflection at the end of group work to help you get the whole picture of the learning process. Student Choice Assignment Tips Number the assignment and detail the choices in the directions and/or in an attached (view only) document. (Note: This is also great way to use digital learning menus and choice boards.) Attach links to digital tools that may be offered as a choice for completing the assignment. (Example: Using one of the digital tools below, create a digital story retelling, “The Tell-Tale Heart,” in your own words.) Long Term Projects, Modifications, or Enrichment For long-term projects, special projects like Genius Hour, or for students with special modifications, you may consider creating a separate “Class.” (Note: This is really only worth the time if these groups are long-term, or reused.) (For more ideas, listen to episode 5 of The Google Teacher Tribe.) Using G Suite to Create Interactive Choice Boards [15:43] - G Suite is the perfect companion to create digital choice boards. Learn more in Episode 8, and get the FREE eBook! [16:34] - Kasey talks about creating choice boards in G Suite. Choice Board Templates and Resources Novel Study Tic-Tac-Toe Chrome PD Tic-Tac-Toe Tommy’s Spall’s Student Creation Menu Amber Teamann and Melinda Miller’s PD BINGO Interactive Learning Menus Blog Post Laurie Westphal’s books on Learning Menus How to Differentiate Questions in Google Forms [19:18] - We dive into Google Forms and how you can differentiate questions (full blog post) and allow students to review content, go on a Choose Your Own Adventure, or even have the questions get progressively more difficult. [21:16] - Kasey provides an example of how to use Google Forms to create a branching assessment or review. [25:00] - Google Forms can be very complicated. Kasey offers great tips to make your forms successful and effective teaching tools. Google Forms Branching Tips Start small, just a few questions. Map out your branches before you begin. Utilize the page titles and descriptions to help you organize. Test it! Then, test it again! Remember, this type of assessment will not be graded--Assessment FOR Learning! Your spreadsheet will not be pretty! But that’s okay! Kids are smart! You must facilitate this type of assessment. Other Ways to Use Branching in Google Forms When a student answers correctly, they could be taken to a harder question. When a student answers incorrectly, you could show more specifically where they went wrong with each answer choice (not just review a concept)–like solving a math problem incorrectly. Student choice: Use this feature to allow students to select from a menu of choices to demonstrate their learning, then upload the file to the form to submit. The spreadsheet would allow you to see what they select and should be working on during class. Gamify! What if every correct answer revealed a clue or a puzzle piece? Students could collect and work individually or collaboratively to put together. Put this feature in students’ hands and let them create something for their class, or another class to teach a skill, or play a game. [20:16] - A friend of Kasey’s, Sylvia Duckworth, created a Choose Your Own Adventure form for her French class that allowed students to create their own ending to a story! Differentiate with Google Slides [30:08] - We can’t leave out Google Slides, the Swiss army knife of G Suite! Kasey gives tips on how to use slides to create interactive assignments. Choose Your Own Adventure with Google Slides by Sylvia Duckworth Podcast Question of the Week [33:13] - Kasey shares the podcast questions of the week: “How do you use digital tools to differentiate learning in your classroom? Name one new idea you will try in your classroom.” Post your answer to your favorite social media platform using the hashtag #ShakeUpLearning, or share it in the Shake Up Learning Community on Facebook!

Your voice is a big part of what makes you, you, and what makes you likable and influential. Yet you probably don't think too much about it. Not to mention, my guest today argues, you're likely not even using your true voice thanks to bad habits you've picked up throughout your life.

What’s shakin’? Welcome to the very first episode of the Shake Up Learning Show, where we’ll dig into integrating technology into the classroom, growing as a leader, refining your instructional strategies, and transforming your classroom! Each episode of this new podcast will be packed full of practical ideas, insights, and the opportunity to learn alongside students and other teachers. I’m your host, Kasey Bell. In case we haven’t connected before (maybe on my other podcast, Google Teacher Tribe), let me introduce myself! I’m a former middle school teacher turned digital learning coach, as well as an international speaker, consultant, blogger, author, and—of course—podcaster! My mission is to help teachers learn to meaningfully integrate technology in the classroom. In today’s episode, I’m going to explore my top 20 tech tips for teachers! These are tried-and-true tips that I believe can make a big difference for you. (Don’t miss the next few episodes, too, because we’re starting off the podcast with a five-episode series on meaningful technology integration!) Today’s 20 tips are in a specific order, starting with shifting your mindset. You need to make up your mind to be positive, even though the classroom is full of obstacles. Without getting your mind into the right place, it’s so much harder to follow through with the rest of the tips that I’ll cover in today’s episode. From there, we’ll move onto my other top tips, including taking risks, starting with the “why” instead of the technology, getting tech into your students’ hands, and not getting swept away by new tools. And that’s just the beginning! My hope is that these 20 tips will guide you in successfully implementing technology in your classroom in a way that works for you and your students. In This Episode: [00:28] - Kasey welcomes listeners to the show and introduces herself. [01:42] - Today’s show will be about one of Kasey’s favorite topics: tech tips for teachers! [02:23] - Kasey gives a quick shoutout to Lauren Billingsley, who sketched her entire Dynamic Learning Workshop at TCEA. [03:19] - We learn about the podcast, and what to expect from future episodes. [08:17] - Kasey jumps into talking about the top 20 tech tips for teachers, exploring the first two tips: shift your mindset and take risks. [14:43] - The third tip is to start with the “why,” Kasey explains. Tip #4 is to get the tech into your students’ hands. [18:05] - Kasey’s fifth and sixth tips are to shop for tools like you’re on Amazon, and to avoid getting swept away by new tools. [20:53] - Be consistent, Kasey advises as part of tip #7. Her eighth tip is related: don’t integrate too many tools at once! [23:01] - The ninth tip is one of Kasey’s favorites: don’t be afraid to let your students teach you! Also, utilize student tech experts (that’s tip #10). [26:09] - Do your students come to you with every single tiny question? If so, implement the “ask three before me” strategy. [27:18] - Tips #12 and 13 are both specifically about using tools. [30:40] - Kasey’s 14th tip is to give students voice and choice, she explains. [32:18] - We learn about the importance of getting organized in tip #15. The sixteenth is related, and involves packaging your online assignments. [35:41] - Tip #17 involves not assessing the bells and whistles, in favor of assessing content and skills. [37:32] - Kasey explores her 18th tip, which is to publish for a global audience. [39:20] - The 19th tip is to always have a plan B, Kasey explains. [40:59] - We hear the 20th tip, which is to share your voice. We also need to cultivate this in students, Kasey points out. [42:45] - Kasey explains how to get your freebie, which you can find at this link! [43:57] - Kasey’s podcast question of the week is this: which of the 20 tips stood out to you? Pick three that you plan to take action on, and explain how. Post your answer on The Shake Up Learning Community or your favorite social media platform! [45:24] - We hear about what’s new on the Shake Up Learning blog.

I don't even remember how or when I started using Google, but once I switched, that was it! I think being introduced Google Forms and realizing how Google Drive worked on all devices is when I realized just how productive Google tools can help educators become. The longer I use it, the harder it is to use other tools, especially paid tools, for my day to day productivity and resource creation.

I love listening to the podcast and trying out the ideas you share! I have an app smash- use the new cc feature in slides along with screencastify. Students that are shy or not comfortable talking in front of the class could record themselves ahead of time and then have it played during class or the teacher can view when they have time. This will also help the teacher when they are accessing the project. There are times when you are grading while students are presenting that you miss things. Having the video to replay showing what they said would be extremely helpful! Thanks!
