Thursday Apr 02, 2020
This is a special episode to support teachers and schools experiencing school closures due to the COVID19 pandemic.
In this episode, I will share a framework adapted from the authors of ELL Frontiers: Using Technology to Enhance Instruction for English Learners to intentionally integrating technology without overwhelming students with too many tech tools. I am joined by Lindsay Kuhl (@lkuhlio).
The 4 buckets for virtual school tech are:
- Content – comprehensible input
- Create – comprehensible output
- Collaborate – student / teacher conferences
- Curate – disseminating instruction
