Help Me Collect #TechTipsForTeachers


As I sit here waiting for Hurricane Dorian to make its turn away from my home in South Florida, I was thinking about all the different people, hashtags, and groups I follow or am a member of that have to do with #edtech. Each day I read about ideas, projects, etc. My favorite thing is to read tech tips. From the simplest key stroke combinations, to an app that someone loves, tech tips can be transformational in the classroom.

So many of us have friends we pass tech tips between. My buddies, Jenny O'Sullivan and Nicole Rubin (aka #ThreeTechieBirdies), are two of my favorites to chat with. We always pass tech tips back and fourth. So in an effort to be more in the moment and to #StopTalkingStartDoing, I decided to take this extra time I have been given to make a resource that I hope will build into something that can have an impact beyond my classroom or school walls. I made a Google Form where anyone can add tech tips. and I want to use #techtipsforteachers to get even more teachers connected.

Remember, this resource is only as good as the tips that are submitted. Please share all your tips! I can't wait to learn with you all the tech tips that people have!

ADD YOUR TIPS HERE --> bit.ly/addtechtipsforteachers 

Then once you add your tips, be sure to check out the results at bit.ly/techtipsforteachers. Now back to waiting for Hurricane Dorian to make up his mind where he wants to turn.... #FloridaProblems

G-Suite + Seesaw = Visible Learning at its Best!

Visible Learning... This buzzword has been front and center for a few years now. What does it mean to you?  For me, visible learning is being able to see what my kids are learning on their journey to mastery. 18 years ago when I started teaching, I struggled to REALLY see what my students were mastering in the classroom. Multiple choice tests, cut & paste worksheets, there weren't many options. The best way back then to know if your students were proficient in something was the one-on-one demonstration of mastery, but I finding the time to assess each student individually one at a time was extremely tough, especially with 36 students and no assistant. Then came the technology, and today, we almost have TOO many options to choose from to make kids' learning visible. 
I wanted to share two of the tech tools that have transformed my classroom, especially when it comes to making learning visible. For the last few years, I have used Seesaw in my first grade classroom. Seesaw is…

Diving In

OK... I did it. After multiple "nudges" by friends, family, and colleagues, I have decided to take the plunge into blogging. I am nervous to say the least, but here I am. I guess I should begin with an introduction. My name is Cara Pavek. First and foremost, I am a wife and mother. My little girl is a super sassy six-year-old. She keeps my husband and I on our toes. I'm currently teaching first grade at Florida Atlantic University's lab school, A.D. Henderson University school. I am entering into my 18th year of teaching and find myself still trying to figure out what kind of teacher I want to be... this year. Yep. I am THAT teacher. You know - the one who is never content with the status quo. The one always trying new things. The one who would rather struggle and/or even fail sometimes rather than do the same thing year after year. I love what I do and over the last few years, I have found this new passion - using technology to increase student engagement and make …
