With so much talk about the game #AmongUs, which I too have been playing, I've written a concise "Parent Guide". Whilst super engaging & fun, there are definitely elements that parents need to be aware of particularly for littlies...knowledge is power๐Ÿ˜€ informandempower.com.au/postโ€ฆ

This issue we review @30hands iPad app. Ideal for junior years classrooms as it features a simple interface, is super versatile across subject areas and focuses on students as creators! โœ…โœ…โœ… #aussieED #edtech #ipad Guest writer: @Cassie_paganis ๐Ÿ˜€ buff.ly/2T3NQYL

Not much in your STEM, digitech, science budget? We highly recommend @microbit_edu as a hands-on tool to teach coding, electronics and more! Lesson ideas & videos prepared by our student guest writer๐Ÿ‘ #aussieED #STEMeducation #PrimarySTEMChat techinedumag.com/post/gettinโ€ฆ
Awesome tech hardware is only as good as the pedagogy that accompanies it...but imagine what you could do with an interactive panel like this one?! The team at @techinedumag got to play with and review the latest offering for education. #aussieED @BenQ_AU buff.ly/34NsAMr

Teaching with tech, something I found challenging was when kids would help each other (great!) BUT would just take over and "do it for them". So I introduced this concept of "hands off helpers". Feel free to use this downloadable poster๐Ÿ‘Œ buff.ly/30RvfCW #AussieED

Teacher or school leader (or both)...this quick read unpacks how important it is for everyone to understand the benefits of using technology in the classroom. Without knowing "why" we use tech in the classroom, aren't we doomed to fail? buff.ly/3g5IqXp #AussieED #edtech

As we prepare for Term 3 many teachers will continue to embrace #googleclassroom more than ever thanks to #COVID19au #lockdown. There is much more to be gained than digitising and substituting "traditional" teaching. Check out our quick read: techinedumag.com/post/level-โ€ฆ
