Felix Jacomino, an edtech leader with a civic ear

Felix Jacomino, a Miami-based director of technology with a leadership background, built a substantial English-language record of educational technology resources over more than a decade on Scoop.it. His work followed classroom tools, social platforms, AI, podcasting and media literacy with the instincts of someone who lives between school infrastructure, teacher learning and student production.

The technologist in the hallway

Felix’s selections reflected the eye of a school technology leader: alert to platforms, but grounded in teacher needs. The pattern was pragmatic, classroom-facing and skeptical of tools that arrive without habits to support them.

A civic reading of technology

The feed returned often to media literacy and public reasoning. Posts on Mastodon, AI, Finland’s approach to media literacy and social text preparation suggest an educator who saw digital fluency as a civic skill, not just a technical one.

A community amplifier

The Miami Device material showed another side: connector, host and participant in a professional community. The event coverage, videos and resource posts preserved the social texture of teacher learning in Miami.

What defines this body of work

A long edtech notebook

The analysed topics contained 947 posts, with the overwhelming share in Technology in Education. That scale made the work less like a bookmark list and more like a long-running field notebook on school technology.

Practice before polish

The recurring concern was usefulness: social tools, Chrome extensions, Google resources, podcasting, passwords, livestreams and classroom routines. Felix selected items that could move from screen to staff meeting to classroom.

Reach built over years

The strongest topic reached substantial public attention, with more than 188,000 views and over 116,000 unique visitors. The numbers point to a resource base that educators returned to even when the pace later slowed.

Tools with a conscience

The work did not separate devices from citizenship. Platform migration, media literacy, polarization, AI and information habits appeared alongside everyday tools, giving the archive a civic edge.

Deep dives

Edtech as platform literacy

The main body of work followed edtech as a culture of tools, platforms and classroom habits. Mastodon, RSS feeds and social media workflows appeared not as tech gossip, but as questions about where educators gather, how they publish and what happens when a platform stops feeling trustworthy.

Later entries showed the same practical instinct around generative AI. The emphasis was less on spectacle than on classroom judgment: how teachers and students might use new systems, how media tips travel with them, and how discernment becomes part of digital learning.

The topic also made room for student voice and production. Audio, livestreaming and podcasting sat beside Chrome extensions and Google tools, suggesting a view of technology as something students use to explain, create and moderate public work.

A Miami educator network, frozen in time

The Miami Device topic captured a brief, local moment in educator professional learning. It treated the event as a meeting ground: a place for teachers to compare notes, hear from presenters and turn a conference into usable classroom energy.

The selections leaned into experience as much as instruction. Behind-the-scenes views, vlogs and attendee reflections made the topic feel participatory, closer to an educator network than a formal archive.

Video played a central role in that record. Interviews and presenter perspectives helped preserve the personality of the event, while resource-focused posts connected the enthusiasm back to practical classroom use.
