Utah Governor Gary Herbert has placed a moratorium on evictions for state residents who have suffered a wage or job loss as a result of COVID-19. The order does not relieve renters of their financial obligations but does allow them to defer rent payments as they recover from economic damage. Plus, new orders from the Southeast Utah Health Department, blood testing for antibodies in Telluride, and the Moab Sun News reports on how the health crisis is placing more pressures on people living without running water on the Navajo Nation.

Moab Regional Hospital staff are urging Governor Gary Herbert to shut down all non-essential business service in Moab including restaurants, lodging, and – if its in his ‘realm of influence' - the National Parks. Their top staff wrote Herbert a letter Monday, saying that most projections place the United States roughly two weeks behind Italy in terms of a likely surge in cases of COVID-19. To avoid the same fate – where the number of patients exceed the capacity of healthcare services - they said “we need to do more now.” On Monday we spoke with Jen Sadoff, Moab Regional Hospital CEO, to learn more about their position and preparedness.

Episode 18: Leveraging the Power of Technology - Innovation and Creativityfeaturing Jared and Kari Wall SHOW DATE: February 27, 2019SUMMARY: In this episode, we pick up where we left off last episode. Having identified multiple key issues that lead to teacher burnout, how can we rethink teaching and learning in light of technology in our classrooms.SHOW NOTES: News and Notes:Wall EdTech is proud to be a presenter at the LSU Department of Education's conference entitled Innovative Practices & Techniques: A Cross-Fertilization of the Immersion, ESL, and Second Language Classrooms. We will be offering a session to world language educators that highlights some technology tools that can be beneficial to learning and teaching new language learners.Here is the link to our Flipgrid: https://flipgrid.com/b0eab2bd. Feel free to share with us some of your thoughts on this podcast and/or ideas for something you want us to discuss. Technology Tools & TrendsTechnology Tools: Trends: If you are a professional educator and not on Twitter, create an account and get on now. The latest trend for Twitter in Education is the Twitter Chat. PLC’s around the nation and globe are grabbing a relevant hashtag, inviting you to follow and respond, and asking questions that allows discussion on topics relevant to you and your classroom.Tools: Nearpod and PearDeck - Need a tool for guiding students through your notes, quick formative assessments, flipping your classroom? Check out these two tools.Question: In light of the issues we discussed last podcast that lead to teacher burnout, how can we re-envision school (teaching and learning or education) in a way that alleviates such issues as data madness, student standardization, and micromanagement and that embraces the idea that teachers and students are unique learners?Embrace uniqueness. This week I am reading a book entitled The Metaphysical Club: A Story of Ideas in America by Louis Menand. In ch. 8 he discusses the “Law of Errors”. This is the history of the development of statistical formulas that were imposed upon social issues. In other words, the use of data to create what would become the “average man”. Using this data allowed for predicting human behavior. It is in the image of the bell curve that we now see students in relation to the “average”. Much to be said here about the outliers. Those who do not follow the statistical model. It is my contention that human beings are diverse and unique. No bell curve, no data, no GPA, no test score can or should be a predictor of student success or determine their worth. By embracing the uniqueness of each learner, we open the possibilities of life, the future, and the classroom. Students see past the closed curriculum and are able to experiment and learn in ways and about things that they are passionate about.Technologies possibility. By using technology to bring in voices, topics, and learning that might never have been possible in previous school eras, teachers must embrace the possibilities of opening up the curriculum using these tools for research, connectivity, collaboration, innovation, and creation.Next on Wall to Wall Podcast: We will discuss tools for teaching when you are out of the classroom.

Episode 17: I Quit!: Teacher Burnoutfeaturing Jared and Kari Wall SHOW DATE: January 25, 2019SUMMARY: In this episode, we discuss an interesting article we came across that analyzes teacher resignation letters and share our thoughts on what is happening in the education system and our experiences. This episode is unscripted, so we do not have a whole lot of show notes. We just wanted to have an honest conversation about how we feel and our thoughts.SHOW NOTES: News and Notes:Welcome back to Wall Ed Tech. This is our first podcast of the year. We apologize for taking so long to get a new podcast out, but we’ve been a bit overwhelmed and busy.Here is the link to our Flipgrid: https://flipgrid.com/b0eab2bd. Feel free to share with us some of your thoughts on this podcast and/or ideas for something you want us to discuss. Technology Tools & TrendsTechnology Tools: Tools: CheckMark has updates (Jared), Grammarly has a Chrome extension, and Tab Resize for automatically splitting your Chrome screen.Question: We have been feeling teacher burnout! We are struggling with desire, stress, and motivation to get our jobs done. We want what is best for our students and still do the work, but the struggle has been real!Jared ran across an article that really hit it’s mark with us both. The article is called “Teachers Go Public with Their Resignation Letters” by Brenda Iasevoli. Here is the link to the full article: https://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/teacherbeat/2017/04/why_do_teachers_quit_their_res.html?cmp=SOC-EDIT-LI This article addresses issues as to why teachers are leaving the profession...and it has nothing to do with pay or student behaviors.The article states, “Teachers are leaving largely because oppressive policies and practices are affecting their working conditions and beliefs about themselves and education.”Teachers have had enough, causing walkouts. “Scripted lessons, an oppressive testing culture, and a punitive evaluation system are the main reasons teachers are heading for the exits.” Evaluations:Evaluations are enough for some teachers. They are very subjective (even with a rubric) and are not for every content area. These rubrics do not even take into account skills-based courses. Evaluations do not account for how far a teacher has brought students and it’s only a snapshot for that particular class. Each class is different. Why should a teacher be held accountable and reflect a score based on whether or not a student asked a meaningful question? How should the teacher be expected to produce in students a desire to know more about the content?Scripted Lessons or Curricular Mandates from AdministrationStandardized TestsMicromanagementDATA DRIVEN MADNESS: Because technology makes tracking data easier, even more demand is being placed on the teacher and one more chore is added to their list.Students are just numbers and represent a point value….this is NOT why I became a teacher.A 40-year veteran cites many reasons for his exit, not the least of which is what he sees as an overreliance on "data-driven education" that "seeks only conformity, standardization, testing, and a zombie-like adherence to the shallow and generic Common CoreNext on Wall to Wall Podcast: We will discuss ….who knows?! We will decide based on how we feel.

Episode 16: Using Google Tools in the Classroom: Google Drawings and Google Keep Edition featuring Jared and Kari Wall SHOW DATE: December 10, 2018SUMMARY: Basic tips for choosing and using Google tools in the classroom for teaching and learning: focusing on how we use Google Drawings and Google Keep.SHOW NOTES: News and Notes:We are working on our next episode and we have received some responses, but want more.

Under construction: a better organized and more useful section of video tutorials.Technology Tools & TrendsTechnology Tools: Trend: Student Creation vs simply encountering technology in the classroom. While many are beginning to use technology in the classroom, for most, this simply means students are completing the same old activities using technology. Think past the worksheet by ensuring students are experiencing the power of technology to help them to create. Whether this be finding their own voice through apps like FlipGrid or creating posters, videos, or presentations using apps like adobe spark, canva, screencastify, or google slides, we must be sure that students are learning and showing what they have learned through creation.Tools: Classroom Intercom is a social media app that allows admins and teachers to create a social media presence that the students can control. This teaches students digital citizenship as they help to promote their own school activities. Student posts are sent to the administrator dashboard for approval to ensure posts are appropriate.Question: What is Google Drawings?Drawings is a blank canvas that allows users to collaborate and work together in real time.Create flowcharts, organizational charts, concept maps, and other types of diagramsInsert images Drag and drop optionsChange background to an image, solid color, or transparentCan be embedded directly into a Google docHow are we using Google Drawings in the classroom?Maps (make the background as an image)Used this in social studies to have students create their own maps (physical, political, and climate)Drag and dropUse Drawings to create or simulate technology enhanced questions in which students must drag and drop concepts in the appropriate place on the graphic.Science (life cycle, cell parts, etc.) Social studies (maps, timelines)English (plot maps, chronological order, summary, venn diagrams, etc)Story MapsUse to have student fill in a plot map or the hero’s journey map.Add images (even animated gifs) to add creativityI have used this along with the transferrable skills students have acquired with other programs to reinforce the proper way to resize and crop images. Students create posters that are a representation of themselvesMemes can be made using Google Drawings that can reflect a portion of a lessonWhat is Google Keep?Keep offers a variety of tools for taking notesIncludes textListsImagesAudioKeep is completely customizable with colors and images. You can “pin” a note to keep it at the top of your list.Google Keep can be shared with others just like other Google tools.Google Keep can be linked with Google Calendar to set reminders of things you need to do.Keep also has a feature that allows you to copy the notes to a Google doc.How are we using Google Keep in the classroom?My students use Keep as a running tasks list of their activities and assignments.Used as checkboxes, students have a daily record of what they need to accomplish and the due dates. Once they have completed and submitted an item, they check that task off their list and it moves to the bottom of the task list.This gives them a feeling of accomplishment by being able to cross an item off a list.Keep keeps a record of the tasks without deleting the items that have been checked off. This allows me to double check with them if there is an assignment or due date in question.How are we using Google Keep professionally?Tasks list...much like my students, I create a task list of things I need to accomplish and check them off once they have been completed.I use Keep in meetings when recording notes. I can then copy the notes to a Google Doc if I need toHow are we using Google Keep personally?Keep is a fantastic way to keep a running grocery list that can be shared with others.Tasks list of things that need to be done, errands, bills, etc.Next on Wall to Wall Podcast: We will discuss how you continue the learning process when you are not in class.

Add images, audio, or video.Choose response destinations that allow students to learn from their incorrect answers.Google Sheet connection collects responses for analyzing most missed items and which answers tripped students up the most. Helps with assessing the focus of upcoming lessons.Student AccountabilityI use a form as a quick reflection of student behavior and attentiveness for the day. I ask things such as: Was the student on task?, Did they perform today’s skills correctly?, Did they help someone?, On a scale, how much effort did I feel they were putting into their work?, Did this student need to be redirected?Students use a form to track test corrections and progress on standards for each unit.Student Goal Setting and ReflectionI use a google form to have students set unit goals and to reflect on their progress at the end of each unit.Weekly Business ReportsThis is based on about 6-8 questions reflecting on the week in class. Students must always give an explanation to their response. The questions ask about their struggles for the week, their successes, and I always end it with a fun hashtag response to sum up their week.Parent Contact LogI use a Form to record when I have made contact with a parent and the reason I contacted them or why they contacted me. I also have a place for notes to record details and outcomes of the conversation.

You never know when you will need an impromptu lesson. It is a good idea to have a couple of backup activities always prepared. These are not your emergency lesson plans. You may:You, your children, or a family member may take suddenly illInternet failureEtc.Continue building relationships with your students. We’ve gotten to know our students’ behaviors and work ethics, but now we need to focus on really “knowing” them.

Technology Tools: ChatterPix app for smartphones and iPads. This could easily be used by younger students. The app allows the student to take a pic of anything and make the image talk by drawing a line for the mouth across the image. It has a 30 second limit of recording, so the student would have to know exactly what they were going to say on the recording.CheckMark: auto remarks in Google Docs for grading anything, but especially writing for ELA teachers! Save time, customize for types of activities! Question: What is Google Docs?Google docs is a word processor much like Microsoft Word, but for those of you who are in Google Education districts (have google accounts for teachers and students), it is so much more.How are we using Google Docs in the classroom?Single user documents to replace worksheets or write essays. This is a no brainer. Create and share your worksheets and activities with Google Docs to remove the paper from your classroom. Integrated with Google Classroom, each student gets their own copy.Teachers can now leave feedback directly to students either real time as they are working or after the fact. You can even have conversations with students in the document while they are working!Collaborative experiencesAssign one document to pairs, groups, or a whole class!Students can use this document to work together on an activity, give peer feedback, ask and answer questions as a sort of backchannel chat feature for your class.Set the student expectations prior to opening the document.

This keeps them from accessing materials they do not need to be seeing at school or on the device. It protects students from outside sources being able to reach them while at school.Cons: When sites are blocked for students, that also means they are blocked from teachers as well. Just because a district says it shouldn’t be used, does not mean it is a website that should not be accessed or that contains inappropriate or offensive materials.Modeling, modeling, modelingThis is the best thing we could do for our students. At times, teachers are the only models students have...make it a good example.This can provide us an opportunity for a teachable moment.WallEdTech.com Digital Citizenship ResourcesNext on Wall to Wall Podcast: Using Google Tools in the Classroom (docs, sheets, forms, slides, drawings, etc.) We will discuss how we are using these tools in our classroom for collaboration, formative assessments, reflections, and much more.

I read an article this week that was very insightful.Getting Feedback Right: a Q&A With John Hattie from Education WeekJohn Hattie is director of the Melbourne Education Research Institute at the University of Melbourne, in Australia and author of Visible LearningBook to release in August is Visible Learning: Feedback"I used to think giving more feedback and better feedback was the answer [to improving education], and it's the exact opposite: How do teachers and students receive feedback? How do they interpret it?"There's very little research on how students progress; there's a lot more research on how teachers think students should progress. We asked 1,000-plus teachers what they meant by feedback, and it was very much focused on [answering], 'How am I doing? Where am I going?' We asked many thousands of students what they meant and it was simple: 'Help me know what to do now.'When teachers spend hours and hours writing comments, if there's no feedback providing concrete steps for the students to improve, students will argue themselves blue in the face that they never received anything. The key question is, does feedback help someone understand what they don't know, what they do know, and where they go? That's when and why feedback is so powerful, but a lot of feedback doesn't—and doesn't have any effect.21st Century skills and their relevance to today’s students.Question: If our students need to be proficient in technology, shouldn’t our teachers be proficient in using technology?Marrying technology with best practices has to become second nature for educators.Using the right tech tool for the right taskIt’s not about the tool, its about achieving the outcome.Using the tools to their full potential (think of Bloom’s Taxonomy levels)PowerPoint will always be a level one because other than inserting a link, it isn’t interactive. Sure, a link can be added, but that’s about it.Google slides can elevate that level much higherCollaborativeUsed to createLinks to research articles, create various things, videosBlog post by Jared on Good Teaching AND Technology that addresses the same thing we are talking about today. Nothing takes the place of good teaching. The technology should ENHANCE your teaching, not to use in place of your teaching.

We start Brakeing Down Security with a huge surprise! A 3rd member of the podcast! Amanda #Berlin (@infosystir) joins us this year to help us educate people on #security topics. During the year, she'll be getting us some audio from various conventions and giving us her perspective working as an #MSSP, as well as a blue team (defender). We start out talking about new #California #legislation about making #malware illegal. What are politicians in California thinking? We work through that and try to find some understanding. With all the various secure messaging systems out there, we discuss how why secure messaging systems fail so poorly with regards to #interoperability and the difficulties in getting average non-infosec people to adopt one. We also discuss #Perfect #Foward #Security and how it prevents people from decrypting old messages, even if the key is compromised. ---------- HITB announcement: “Tickets are on sale, And entering special code 'brakeingsecurity' at checkout gets you a 10% discount". Brakeing Down Security thanks #Sebastian Paul #Avarvarei and all the organizers of #Hack In The Box (#HITB) for this opportunity! You can follow them on Twitter @HITBSecConf.
