When people feel valued and they feel like they have purpose. When you say "I'm just a" you devalue your work and give the person you are talking to permission to do the same. 30 second moments have great impact. Start with joy. End with joy. @joe_sanfelippo #TCEA #TCEA2025

We've been teaching for a long time now. But the job has always been to design for learning to happen. It's not more work, just different work. Learning Design has an effect size of 0.70 or nearly 2 years' learning potential. Design for Learning! It works for us & for them. #EduSky #EduCoach

I turned my most boring math lesson into one of my most engaging ones. Here's how: #edusky #iteachmath

This is so true. Someone on twitter invited me to give a talk to #EYFS educators then I was given the chance to write a book in outdoor play and that changed my life...

Tips for Prioritizing Self-Care: 🩷 Schedule it like an appointment. 🩷 Start small—5 minutes of deep breathing helps. 🩷 Set boundaries to guard your energy. 🩷 Listen to your body—rest when needed. Self-care fuels your ability to care for others (& yourself!) #PheMOMenal #tlap #dbcincbooks #EduSky

WOW.. I've missed this "Excited" feeling as an educator discovering friends & collaborators via social media! That's what originally attracted me to social apps like Twitter and others. Like my buddy, @aaronhogan.bsky.social posted, "the educators you meet here will change your life." #EduSky

I’m just so excited to be able to open a social media app and see it filled with only educators sharing awesome things. It’s been a long time. #EduSky #EduSkyAI

"Action cures fear." - David J. Schwartz When I'm stuck (and that's often!), if I can get myself MOVING and DOING rather than sitting and worrying...it almost always sets me free from the fear that was holding me back. #tlap #leadlap #successsecrets

Isolation is not the answer! Just one myth shattered by @aaronhogan.bsky.social in his book, Shattering the Perfect #TeacherMyth from #dbcincbooks!! a.co/d/4qoDNfp #tlap #EduSky

Where are my Texas English teachers at? I’d love to connect with you here. #EduSky

This past week I've seen an influx of people leaving the former blue bird for the blue butterfly. Here's my latest post on the subject - "Intention over Attention" #SocialMedia #EduSky hookedoninnovation.com/2024/11/15/i...

Good morning, BlueSky! Hope you all have a great day today!

Can’t think of a better quote to enter a new space with. I’m excited to reconnect and get inspired!

A2: So my new favorite edtech tool??? This one! @bsky.app I had forgotten how transformational having a space like this can be. The joy I am getting out of reconnecting and connecting with so many incredible people in the education community and beyond has made my heart so happy. #EduSkyChat

Join #EduSkyChat on Monday's 6pm PST. The topic will be Thanksgiving Break: Self-Care for Educators 💙 With moderator @catetolnai.bsky.social #EduSkyChat bsky.app/profile/did:... 🍎

Try deck.blue to get back that Tweetdeck experience!! See my pinned post for more Bluesky tips. It's a thread! #EduSky

#EduSkyChat is truly a social movement. So, if you wanna help out as a guest moderator, fill out this form and we'll get you all set up!! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... #bettertogether @karlymoura.com @alicekeeler.com

Tonight I’m reminded of this old idea I often shared on Twitter. An app like this isn’t going to change your life, but the educators you meet here will. Grateful to have a space like this open again. #EduSky #EduSkyChat

When all else fails…the Ditch That Textbook Blog will always have an idea! #eduskychat

YES to this Aaron! #EduSkyChat

Aaron just said it best!!!!! We have missed this and we need it. Thank you ALL for taking the time to join us tonight 💙 OR if you catching up after that chat thank you for continuing the conversation! #BetterTogether #eduskychat

A3: I’m always looking for ways to learn more about spreadsheets. There is so much data out there. If we can help folks access it, we can truly make such a huge difference. But it has to be accessible & meaningful. The answer is pretty much always a spreadsheet, right @alicekeeler.com? #EduSkyChat

Q3: What's on your edtech tool "to try" list? How can the #EduSkyChat community help you get started? Tip: Begin your post with A3: Don’t forget the #EduSkyChat hashtag! @alicekeeler.com @catetolnai.bsky.social

Can I just say that this is the best? I have missed this part of my professional life over the past few years. If you’re taking time to be part of #EduSkyChat, thank you for investing in others in this space tonight!
