The fate of the #Babylon5 pilot may be decided end of this month. Though much of @TheCW was bought by @NXSTMediaGroup the decision also rests heavily with @WarnerbrosTV. If fans want to show their support for B5 & let them know you want this to happen, now is the time #B5onCWin23

5/5 If we allow legislators & school boards to make teachers "accountable" for producing higher test scores, you can bet students will receive an education completely out of step with the best thinking about how kids learn. The scores may rise even as the learning stagnates.

A 2018 study conducted with middle school students showed that when teachers welcome students at the door, academic engagement increased by 20% and disruptive behavior decreased by 9%. -From the book Teachers These Days. #togetherweRfife #teachertwitter #middleschool #edchat

There is nothing wrong with incorporating play into your school day. Let no one discourage you for having fun and letting kids be kids. – at Chicago, IL

Very cool application of the game! Kids won't forget this ever. Big country, bigger game. Does this make the USA The Nether? :) @susietinker5 @jeb_
We used @Minecraft Education to explore regions of Canada. Ss built mines, farmlands, and the Northern Lights. Along with their biome, they wrote paragraphs welcoming a newcomer to their physical region. #MinecraftEdu #edutwitter @PlayCraftLearn ⛏🌲🏔

When my son is playing Fortnite with his friends online and I’m listening to them, I can hear that they are: 💥 Collaborating 💥 Communicating 💥 Problem Solving 💥 Iterating 💥 Setting Goals 💥 Making Plans Sound familiar?

Reminder for teachers creating video lectures or screencasts. Research shows: 1. Videos should be short. 6 minutes or shorter. 8-10 min max. Chunk it into topics. 2. Seeing your face in the screencast increases engagement. Students want to SEE us. #edchat #edtech #TOSAchat

Picked up my printer this afternoon to print hospital mask clips. My kids loaded print codes and helped me get it from my school today. Yay 3D printing! #gcsk12 #gcsp23 @jmammano @Goodson

Unsurprisingly teachers are finding it difficult to deliver a synchronous timetable. Please think carefully about your approaches. I hope that this little infographic helps. #RemoteLearning #DistanceLearning #HomeLearning #edtech #elearning #edutwitter

Bit baffled to see teachers on here already working from home (planning lessons, making resources, etc) Don’t forget to give yourself a weekend. We just had one of the most emotionally and physically draining weeks of our lives. I’m going to sleep and play PS4 for two days.
