Checking in to BlueSky now that we caught our breath after the #NCSS2024. What a great conference! We loved connecting with so many new Tech friends! Watch for our email with our shared resources and an invite to our January meeting!

Thought-provoking...

It's #sschat unconference day! Please join us in Room 200 at 9:45 for personalized PD with other social studies educators. #ncss2024 #ncss24

Wondrous first full day of #ncss2024! We always forget how HUGE this event always feels, but really it's the *tiny* moments of run-ins with colleagues from far away of connections with strangers at an exhibition booth of epiphanies when someone says a thing during a session That's all priceless

Closing out Day One with @hcrichardson.bsky.social : "There is nothing more important than what all of you are doing...those of you that teach social studies have always been on the frontlines of democracy." #EduSky #NCSS2024

Less than 24 hours to the start of the #sschat unconference at #ncss2024 #ncss24. We will be in Room 200 from 9:45 to 11:15 Saturday for attendee-focused PD. Hope to see you there!

“Most people…just want an app that works, where a bunch of people they like post interesting things at a regular clip.” Exactly! Scrolling Bluesky at #NCSS2024 this week has been exactly this, and just want I wanted. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/22/t...

Never tell students or teachers that AI generates human-like output with little to no human input. There is a legion of exploited workers making it work. #EduSky

“Envision an elementary-school social studies classroom where students build knowledge & understanding about a carefully planned sequence of related topics over a school year, stoking curiosity & confidence as they become experts in the content.” #sschat knowledgematterscampaign.org/post/a-histo...

Just had an incredibly engaging conversation with a high school advisory in which we discussed this continuum from @ericcurts.bsky.social in Socratic Seminar format. Every secondary teacher should consider this activity with their students. Their responses were honest and informative!

No.
