Teaching and learning. For decades, we focused almost exclusively on the teaching side of things. More recently, we’ve been paying attention to learning, and that’s a good thing. However, we shouldn’t be thinking about one without the other—they’re both important and inseparably linked.

Nice list of links to get PD in over the summer. Had the expected conference lists but also included some I had not thought about. How and why to write an op-ed piece and writing a book were new to me. Also liked the link on how to get more out of webinars.

This study of more than 3,100 teachers revisits key questions explored in the original Teachers Know Best report: how teachers use digital instructional tools in the classroom, as well as their attitudes towards technology and whether they believe existing digital tools are effective. As with the original report, research centered on consumer analytics and insight provides an opportunity to shift from anecdotes to a richer understanding of whether product developers are creating the digital tools that teachers want and need, Via Nik Peachey

Digital Competence Framework for Educators (DigCompEdu)
The teaching professions face rapidly changing demands, which require a new, broader and more sophisticated set of competences than before. The ubiquity of digital devices and applications, in particular, requires educators to develop their digital competence. The European Framework for the Digital Competence of Educators (DigCompEdu) is a scientifically sound framework describing what it means for educators to be digitally competent. It provides a general reference frame to support the development of educator-specific digital competences in Europe. DigCompEdu is directed towards educators at all levels of education, from early childhood to higher and adult education, including general and vocational education and training, special needs education, and non-formal learning contexts.

"If you’ve ever found yourself reciting the phrase, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, you’ve likely observed older coworkers, and family members refuse smartphones and tablets. As a professor, this kind of attitude is unacceptable. Your students need an education infused with technology, and it’s your responsibility to become a tech-expert yourself." Via EDTECH@UTRGV

A person can always learn and grow. Professors have learned the art of how to remain tech-savy. These habits contains habits that keeps the professor confident, focused, and fearless to just mention a few. I like how the professors have embraced the fact that their students have knowledge that they do not have and that the professor is not ashamed about not knowing everything.

Teaching digital literacy has become an essential part of today’s education, especially after being mandated by the Common Core and other state equivalents. With so many new technologies out there, it’s easy for teachers to feel constantly behind. This can lead to teachers being overwhelmed, which in turn can lead to burnout. To address this problem, we compiled a list of “Must-Have” digital literacy skills (with a few bonuses for extra credit) to help teachers and administrators prioritize teacher digital literacy professional development.

I have taught high school science for 25 years. When I entered the teaching profession, I wanted my classroom to consist of more than me lecturing students on what I insisted that they learn and replay to me at scheduled testing times.
