EdTech Situation Room Episode 45
So excited and honored to participate in the podcast The EdTech Situation Room with Wes Fryer. Here are the articles and show notes.
Chat:
Jamie Camp Good to see all of you!
Jamie Camp I love seeing all of you "together"
EdTech Situation Room hi Jamie!
Peggy George I'm so excited this night is finally here! Great to see you Alice and Cheryl!!
Alice Barr Yea!!! Hiiii
Jamie Camp Hooray!! Peggy's here!
Peggy George Hi Jamie!
Jamie Camp Ep 44 was great as always, Wes!
cheryloakes50 Welcome, so glad to see you Jamie and Peggy!!
Peggy George Last week was NOT a horrible show! Wes did a great job holding down the fort!
Jamie Camp Not an easy thing to do that by yourself!
Peggy George for sure Jamie!!!
Jamie Camp Snow in April! Wow!
Jamie Camp It's been mid 80s in Houston!
cheryloakes50 Yes Jamie, lots of snow!
Peggy George unbelievable weather in Main!!
Jamie Camp Sounds good to me!
Jamie Camp This year's been super crazy though
Peggy George I'm so excited to be able to hear about these updates from Cheryl and Alice!
Peggy George that's a great plan! great way to manage the ipad upgrades!
Jamie Camp Wow--8 year cycles! You really do need Apples for that!
Peggy George so true Jamie!
Peggy George that's a challenge when they stop making particular models
Peggy George I think it makes so much sense for the HS to have laptops
cheryloakes50 Yes, it made a lot of sense at Alice's school. I'll share my story.
Peggy George that's a terrific deal!
Jamie Camp Always trying to figure out ways to put devices in our students' hands in my school. It's a real struggle. Right now we have an entire grade that is struggling with very old laptops.
Alice Barr We actually polled students and they felt strongly . they wanted laptops
Peggy George that seems so affordable when you think about how much money schools spend on textbooks that can't be updated and are usually out of date before they can be replaced
Peggy George Alice, I love how much you include students in the decision making process!
Alice Barr Thank you Peggy. It's so important for them to have a say.
Peggy George very interesting Cheryl! carts of Chromes
Jamie Camp Chromebooks in our upper grades (3-5) have really changed the landscape in our school.
Peggy George It's great for the students to become so familiar with all of the Google tools in HS!
Jamie Camp They've made it easy for kids to log on, so teachers are less reluctant to try things.
Peggy George yes!!! that's the problem!!! very late school year!!! I remember those days in MA! End of June was not unusual.
Jamie Camp battery life great too. We're working on the creative side of things, but collaboration is sooo much easier!
Peggy George good point about battery life!
cheryloakes50 Yes, we do like the google tools and the collaboration.
Peggy George I love Carla Arena!!! I've followed her for years.
Jamie Camp Yes! She's amazing!
EdTech Situation Room really interesting the different directions the 1:1 programs have gone...
Alice Barr She's amazing!
Peggy George I took an online photo course with her many years ago.
Peggy George that was quite a sacrifice Cheryl!! giving up a weekend of skiing!
Jamie Camp I remember that! I started....but alas...I'm a dropout LOL
Peggy George what a creative conference format!
Peggy George it was 2009 I think
cheryloakes50 Yes, Peggy, it was.
Jamie Camp Wow! 8 years ago. Doesn't seem like it at all.
Jamie Camp What a cool thing to have a student assistant to be with you! Great idea!
Peggy George I think she also taught a digital storytelling course I was in
Peggy George what an exciting conference!!!!
Jamie Camp You've both changed a lot of lives!
Alice Barr Thank you Jamie
Peggy George do you have a link for the Brazil conference?
Alice Barr yes in the doc

Alice Barr Won't let me paste the link
cheryloakes50 Amplifica is on Facebook.
Alice Barr https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?...
Peggy George good for you Wes!!!!
Peggy George it's always so frustrating when we can't share links in this chat
Peggy George https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?...
Peggy George woo hoo!! what power
Peggy George https://www.sympla.com.br/amplifica-i...
Peggy George that is so funny!! the Pope is a hacker
Jamie Camp Love that!
Peggy George he's making things happen!!!
Peggy George We have had that conversation for several years at HackEd, the unconference before ISTE
Jamie Camp He is making things happen! I'm not Catholic, but he's making things happen in the larger culture--not just the Catholic church! That's hacking!
Peggy George I agree Jamie!
Jamie Camp so true, Peggy!
Jamie Camp Will you be at ISTE this year, Peggy?
Peggy George no unfortunately, Jamie. So I'll be actively participating in #notatiste
Alice Barr #BrazilEdu Slow chat
Alice Barr #changeitup #studentpurpose
Jamie Camp I think I'm going, so I'll connect with you thru #notatiste
Peggy George what a great idea to introduce slow chat to them! We used that all the way through #notatiste16 last year and got so many terrific resources to add to our Livebinder
Peggy George Great Jamie!!! That will be awesome!
Jamie Camp absolutely Peggy!
Alice Barr Q1: How might we design global activities with #studentpurpose?
Peggy George love that plan! a new question every 2 weeks with BrazilEDU on slow chat
Peggy George yes!!! Participate is the very best way to do a slow chat!!!!
Jamie Camp I've never used participate
Peggy George Cheryl and Alice, you HAVE to use Participate!!!! It captures all of the links people share in a collection! Automatically adds the hashtag to every tweet.
Jamie Camp wow. handy
cheryloakes50 ELTJam
Alice Barr I've only seen it for archiving
Alice Barr Thank you Peggy! Sounds perfect!
Peggy George This was the link we used on Participate for #notatiste16 https://www.participate.com/chats/not...
Peggy George You join with your Twitter login and it's all free.
Jamie Camp How did I not know that, Peggy! LOL
Peggy George Look at these amazing resources we collected in our Collection (1135) https://www.participate.com/collectio...
Jamie Camp Google Docs solves so many problems!
Peggy George it automatically collects them from tweets but you can also add any you want
Peggy George so true about Bob!!!!
Jamie Camp If only Bob were around! How true!
Alice Barr Oh wow. Amazing resources!
Alice Barr Miss him....
Jamie Camp great memories!
Peggy George so happy to see the dogs!! they were always a part of our EdTechTalk webcasts!!
cheryloakes50 https://www.wired.com/2017/03/irresis...
Peggy George it worked Cheryl!!
EdTech Situation Room yay shared links!
cheryloakes50 Thanks!
Peggy George We had a great webinar on Classroom 2.0 LIVE last month that was all about Participate--tutorial, links, PD. http://live.classroom20.com/archive-a...
Peggy George that's a great article from Wired!
Alice Barr Can't wait to check this out. Thanks Peggy
Jamie Camp great point Cheryl. TV didn't live in our hand when we were kids.
Peggy George social behavioral addiction! absolutely!
Peggy George Alice if you have any questions about Participate I would be happy to jump on a Skype call to talk and any time.
Peggy George Parents aren't always the best role models!
Jamie Camp Guiding kids with mobile devices is sooo much harder than it was when my daughter was young--and she's only 26!
Alice Barr Thank you Peggy.
Peggy George Michael Wesch is awesome!
Alice Barr I will take you up on that!
cheryloakes50 Peggy, role models need to be explicit. Outloud thinking, I am putting my phone away until the end of this discussion
Peggy George good point! But they also need to do what they say
Jamie Camp When she was young, we could ensure that she used digital tools in a public family space. She didn't have a way to even USE it in her bedroom or privately. Not it's so much harder for parents.
Jamie Camp *now
Peggy George that's so true Jamie!
Peggy George Look at this (later). The Images4Education course with Carla is still available online. It was 2010. http://images4education.pbworks.com/w...
cheryloakes50 Thanks Peggy! Wow, it hopefully is still timely!
Jamie Camp awww!
Alice Barr Nice!
Peggy George would students want to take a class on ethics?
Peggy George haha! if you're not using your device for , put it away. I couldn't do that.
Jamie Camp Ironically we had an issue at a district meeting--about modern learning--where the presenter made us all close our laptops. It really turned me off.
Peggy George it would me too Jamie!
Jamie Camp I was pretty done after that, sad to say....
Jamie Camp great point, wes. what does that feel like to a kid who IS using his/her device appropriately?
Peggy George I look up related resources to expand my learning, look up word definitions, take screenshots, etc.
EdTech Situation Room I can tell you what it feels like, it's really frustrating!
Peggy George Jason, is that you typing for EdTech Situation Room?
Jamie Camp Yup. It was counterproductive for me b/c it irritated me so.
EdTech Situation Room no this is wes typing
Peggy George that's some multitasking Wes!
Peggy George I didn't think Jason was with us.

#ACTEM15 - Part 1
The ACTEM conference was very special for me this year because, along with Cheryl Oakes, I got to present the John Lunt, Friend of Technology award to our dear friend and educator, Bob Sprankle. What a honor to recognize someone who has been such an amazing educator, learner and collaborator. The award was established by ACTEM in 2006 as a way to recognize individuals that have made a significant contribution to education and technology in Maine. This recognition is so well deserved! The theme of the conference was "Power Me" and the program looked a colorful comic book. This turned out to be a great frame of reference for our recognition. As we presented, Kern Kelly not only recorded, but also had the robot Ivan there, with a cape on! Kern's students designed the cape hanger. Bob could watch from home via the live stream, and at the end, he was able to drive the robot and see some of the people who came to see the presentation.
Mr. S! His superpower is Student Scholars!
For those of you have yet to meet Bob Sprankle and want the details, all that information can be found at bobsprankle.com or you can google him and in 43 seconds- faster than a speeding bullet 101,000 hits will be displayed.
Bob Sprankle is a pioneer in the world of education technology. Early on, he understood that student voice and technology were a powerful mix for learning. He is passionate about how technology positively impacts students and learning.
Bob always thought the lines between online and face to face conversations are blurred because meaningful conversation can take place miles apart or face to face. Kern Kelly said “My favorite quote from Bob was when Vicki Davis was speaking at the ACTEM conference and he said how driving with her to the conference that morning, at one point he reached over to turn up the volume to hear her better, suddenly realizing she was actually speaking in the back seat! “
The year Bob co-won the ACTEM teacher of the year, he used his award to purchase audio equipment for podcasting. His students were writing newsletters at the time. Bob wondered if he could make an audio version of those newsletters. Bob saw the opportunity that technology could bring to his students to leverage their learning. He says, “The students just saw that this was part of their work. They had already found purpose to everything they were doing. They had listeners and this was part of learning-people engage with you and carry on the conversation.”
Faster than a speeding nanosecond, the scholars of Room 208 sent breaking news over the airwaves and into homes and classrooms around the world. These third and fourth graders went from being consumers to producers in lightspeed fashion. Technology helped Bob amplify their voices from Wells, Maine to a global audience - something that had never been done before. These students went from being consumers of content to producers of multimedia.
Bob’s teaching style supported putting his students in charge of their learning. He believes that students are superheros perfectly capable of creating, editing and producing. He views them as authentic artists and authors whose work is to be valued and shared to a wide audience. For example, the Superhero Scholars blogged poetry and artwork in a safe space created by Bob. He instituted protocols that are still in use in many classrooms around the world today and oh yes, this was all BEFORE GOOGLE.
This was followed by a reading about the Room 208 Reunion by Bob's daughter Zoe. Then Jody, Bob's wife spoke. I'll have the video as soon as it's ready.

A blast from the past
I listened to Davis Truss' session today on Inquiry Learning at Classroom 2.0. He was using some graphics called Digital Footprints in his presentation. It reminded me of his K-12 presentation from last year. If you haven't checked out K-12 Online Conference, this years pre conference keynote starts on October 15th.
