I used marvelapp.com – it was super straightforward, which I really appreciated considering my inability to code 🙂

That would be wonderful! I’d love to chat more about empathy and to hear about some of the different resources you have used thus far.

I look forward to catching up on the 21st!

I think it’s awesome you’re giving them challenges of walking across Toronto or to Niagara Falls. Do you have a big map displayed in your room where you could display their progress? This may be incentive enough as it adds a bit of a competitive edge. Once they start to see their progress and the distance to…Read more

You’re right, it is so easy for us to compare ourselves to others, but we’re not seeing the whole picture when we compare. I think by adopting a growth mindset, we become ‘grittier’ by seeing our failures as opportunities for learning and by pushing ourselves outside our comfort zones.…Read more

Thank you for your response. The girls reflected on their timelines in their digital portfolios, and I posed the question of how they felt the technology either did or did not enhance their learning in this task. It was a bit of a mixed response, where some felt they enjoyed using technology as it allowed them to edit and…Read more

I’ve had a look at the TPACK model as well as SAMR. I am definitely looking at the integration of technology in a new light now as a result of these two models. Using these to help frame my lessons makes for a more authentic relationship between technology and the learning going on in the…Read more
