I spend a lot less time in the edu space on the socials these days thanks to the game I love. Life has gotten busier in a good way. The ice rink brings me joy. Late night skates keep me young. Also having a blast coaching two youth travel teams in WNY. 🏒 winding down, ⚾️ 🥍 ready for 🚀

Some #MarvelRivals action in the #esportsLSC lab.

Merry Multiplayer Madness was a hit in the cafeteria this week! #esportsLSC might have some new faces in 2025. The Grinch even got in on the action. @dptechint.bsky.social

Snow days last week couldn’t shut down AP Computer Science from a great day of authentic learning from Amazon Future Engineer Virtual Tour & competition for #HourOfCode. We jammed out with Music Lab too. 💻💡🎶🎉 #edtechLSC

We turned back time in the cafeteria today for some Merry Multiplayer Madness fun on behalf of #esportsLSC for the 12 Days Themed Calendar.

One of my all time favorite people bring creative perspectives to this space is always a gift! #EduSky

Before we get into Question 3, let's talk about dopamine. Check out this graphic made by one of the #GlobalStudentChat student leaders:

Shoutout to @edtechnocation.com for this VR Roller Coaster challenge idea! Had a blast creating a Seek & Find Adventure with students in Media Tech: Gaming Concepts at Lake Shore HS. Give it a try: gamesforchange.org/studentchall... #edtechLSC #ARVRinEdu #CSEdWk #CSEdWeek

Some fun stuff going down in the Lake Shore library! 🤖 🦌 👵 🎉 #edtechLSC @smilelearning.bsky.social

This! That is why we need #edtech and #IT leaders to work together with #AT leaders and families! The #NETP did it at the federal level- and the CITES framework brings it to Districts! The Community of Practice helps people learn more & collab bit.ly/JoinCITES #BetterTogether #EduSkyChat

Thanks @drheatherkaiser.bsky.social for hosting an excellent #EduSkyChat. It was great to jump back into an edu chat with some educators from across the globe. The 30 minute window is perfect for a quick blast of ideas and inspiration. Hope to join in again next time.

A3 I shared some of my thoughts related to this here. I think the challenge is when we try to force tech into learning. It needs to be the accelerator, not the driver. #EduSkyChat edtechmagazine.com/k12/article/...

A2 If accessibility isn’t the trend gaining the most traction, we’re doing something wrong. I know AI is going to lead this convo but accessibility needs to be king. It’s a must to be a part of anything else answered in this question. I know @jordynbzim.bsky.social would agree! #EduSkyChat

It’s been so long since I’ve participated in an edu chat that I typed Q1 when I meant to type A1. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Gotta shake the rust off! #EduSkyChat

A2 I think we’ll continue to see the evolution and advancement of immersive edtech in edu. Augmented & Virtual Reality continue to become more accessible (there’s still work to be done) and also become more practical for integration. #EduSkyChat

Q1 I try to stay up to date with as many learning resources & applications as possible to best support learning/teaching needs. From the teacher side, @briskteaching.bsky.social has really 🤯 our staff. Hoping to use Brisk Boost w/ students to help them level up their learning experience. #EduSkyChat

I had fun trying out Google's new ♟️ GenChess labs.google/genchess where you pick a theme and the AI generates a chess set and opponent for you. You can then play the chess game against the AI. I chose 🪼 Jellyfish and it chose 🦈 sharks for my opponent. #EduSky #EdTech #EduSkyAI

Thank you James Cook for providing me with a creative outlet. #EduSky #BillsMafia
