21:21:41 [Message] meacherteacher -> -EdTechTalk: Bonus - the stream skipped a chunk. Down side is that I missed some Wows. Upside is that I seem to be caught up with the rest of the world!
21:21:47 [Message] Nita -> -EdTechTalk: can we save this chat?
21:21:48 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: all great project-based learning experiences!! that was life changing for Jackie!

21:22:23 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: Perhaps if you have the chatroom pop out, when click on links you won't be kicked out
21:22:35 [Message] Nita -> -EdTechTalk: Thanks. Sorry for the basic question! My first time on Edtalk
21:22:51 [Message] jvirant -> -EdTechTalk: That course sounds pretty constructivist, Jackie!!!

21:27:25 [Message] jackiegerstein -> -EdTechTalk: My students use My Studiyo - on extreme animals
21:27:34 [Message] meacherteacher -> -EdTechTalk: That's the kicker, "If teachers are using it right" Our schools are filled with laptops and SmartBoards and so many teachers are using laptops to word process and SmartBoards as projectors. You can do more good stuff by using less technology well.
21:28:38 [Message] hollyrae -> -EdTechTalk: @meacherteacher well said
21:29:01 [Message] drezac -> -EdTechTalk: What grade is this? 4th- 5th?
21:29:09 [Message] hollyrae -> -EdTechTalk: Choice and collaboration, powerful engagement ingredients
21:29:10 [Message] jackiegerstein -> -EdTechTalk: http://weewebwonders.synthasite.com/mystudiyo.php
21:29:11 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: There's a book, by Donald Finkel "Teaching with your mouth shut"
21:29:41 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: best way to learn is to teach
21:29:41 [Message] Neal Gallagher -> -EdTechTalk: a great way to improve engagement and shut out boredom
21:30:03 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: 3-then-me ... I use that with my college students
21:30:05 [Message] drezac -> -EdTechTalk: Thanks for that wiki. It looks good and organized. In my wiki making infancy and my wiki org skills are still a work in progress.
21:30:23 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: and more engaging too
21:30:27 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: works for students of all ages--3 before me :-)
21:30:53 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: oh mee too!
21:31:05 [Message] hollyrae -> -EdTechTalk: Wow @jackie, your links are awesome, we're seeing some cool stuff for RETA webinars ;-)
21:31:20 [Message] hollyrae -> -EdTechTalk: 3 before me, especially for technology
21:31:47 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: amazing
21:31:58 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: i also find a student expertt
21:32:14 [Message] hollyrae -> -EdTechTalk: I'd love to connect with you all on twitter
21:32:17 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: and that person gets to teach others and they eat it up
21:32:19 [Message] meacherteacher -> -EdTechTalk: Amazing how motivating choice is. I have students who have a hard time writing who settled right down and write when they have been able to choose when they will write.

21:33:36 [Message] meacherteacher -> -EdTechTalk: @mrsdurff That's got to be tough
21:33:50 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: it's frustrating
21:34:01 [Message] Nita -> -EdTechTalk: I sometimes let them choose the program they will be using for certain activities like recount etc (Smart Ideas/Kidpix, Kidspiration, Word or Publisher)
21:34:03 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: for me and more so for the kidwss
21:34:24 [Message] Nita -> -EdTechTalk: Choice does make a lot of difference! They stay on task.
21:34:33 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: exactly
21:35:05 [Message] meacherteacher -> -EdTechTalk: @ mrsdurff Do the kids ever try to get teachers to use technology after they have used it with you? How do your colleagues feel about it?
21:35:21 [Message] jackiegerstein -> -EdTechTalk: Teaching TED - http://teachingwithted.pbwiki.com/FrontPage
