In this class, Heather teaches three ways to build bridges that help learners connect across any divide they might be experiencing so that they feel safe enough to speak up and express themselves, whether at school or home.

You’ll learn to use digital tools to give learners a bridge into conversations where they might initially feel foreign or shy. You’ll discover how transparent norms can serve as a bridge to encourage sharing and participation. And you’ll explore how to tie your group discussions to individual student interests so that learners have an entry point into the group.

No one should go through the day unnoticed. Children and teenagers have ideas that can change the world. Learn how to bring everyone into the conversation.

Procrastinateur invétéré ou boulimique de travail (c'est selon) je partage autour de moi ma passion du numérique éducatif !  

Pour cet épisode pilote, avec Anthony et Laurent, nous avons décidé de vous parler de Flipgrid, de MakeCode et des nouveautés de Microsoft Education pour cet automne.

Laurent nous présente les usages pédagogiques de Flipgrid qu'il mène dans son école et dans les formations qu'il anime.

Anthony nous raconte comment utiliser MakeCode avec notamment la nouvelle version de la carte Micro:Bit.

Pour ma part je disserte sur les nouveautés disponibles dans Microsoft Teams et les outils de Microsoft Education depuis la rentrée scolaire jusqu'à la fin de l'automne.

On se taquine un peu, on débat, mais surtout on s'amuse et nous espérons que vous en ferez autant avec nous !

Nous vous présentons déjà nos excuses pour la qualité sonore de cet épisode de test (c'est ma faute, c'est promis je ferai beaucoup mieux la prochaine fois).

Flipgrid has recently launched a whole new roll-out, just in time for the 2020 school year, when many of us are still working to figure out better online engagement. 

Ixchell & Brent chat with Educator Innovation Lead at Flipgrid, Ann Kozma, and Flipgrid Ambassador & ELL teacher Luis Oliveira to discuss fun, meaningful, and innovative ways to use Flipgrid to support our ESL students. Listen in to hear the powerful ways giving the opportunity for student voice can empower language learners. 

Sometimes in order to find answers for the classroom, teachers need to look to examples from well outside of it. In this episode, Nick sits down with Melanie O'Neil owner and operator of Rustic Marlin to discuss the most expensive phrase in business. "That's the way we've always done it" How can leaders help facilitate change in a meaningful and team-first way and how can these lessons be brought into the classroom.

In this episode, Nick sits down with teacher, blogger, and author Alice Aspinall to talk about how we can create an environment that fosters a growth mindset. 

If you have been wondering how to streamline marking and grading in your class and with your students, this episode will help. Nick sits down with Myron Duek teacher and author of "Grading Smarter Not Harder" to discuss how this book came to be, how teachers can simplify their assessment process, and how can students need to be part of this process. 

In this episode, Nick sits down with his ELA/Hum team partner Hannah Kappeller, a first-year teacher who helps explain how she navigates important social topics with her students. 

Discussing sensitive subjects like politics, religion, race, and cultural inequalities with our students shouldn't be something we shy away, listen has Hannah explain the breakdown from start to finish. 

Distance learning has been challenging in so many ways, but by identifying and learning how to avoid the traps of remote teaching you can help grow your practice. Listen as Nick sit down with Dr. Rebecca Winthrop of the Brookings Institute about the five traps to watch for during remote teaching. 

Dr. Rebecca Winthrop is a Fellow and Director at the Brookings Institute. Her research focuses on education globally, with special attention to the skills children need to succeed in their lives as workers and citizens.
