7 Little-Known Tech Tools Teachers Should Try Out
There are hundreds of thousands of apps, tools, and websites that teachers could learn from. But, well, teachers don’t have that kinda time. In fact, the lack of time is a big issue when it comes to education technology integration. Handing off an iPad to a teacher and saying ‘there now you have an iPad, go revolutionize learning!’ is how most districts still approach integration.
So in an effort to boil down the most effective (even if they’re not the most popular) education technology tools, many people like myself test out and recommend just a small fraction of the many offerings out there. A terrific blogger I follow, Jacqui Murray, did just that when she recommended 7 tech tools that educators should be using. (That article is great, check it out.)
Since we’ve established that teachers are short on time but not on resources, these kind of articles are great for a connected educator on the go. But you know what’s even better? A useful blog post turned into a video! Who doesn’t love that? That video is embedded above and worth a quick watch and courtesy of the fine folks at TeachHub.
Most of the tools are not very well-known or at least not overly used and talked about. If you use them, how have your experiences been? Any other tools you’d recommend be added to this list?
The List
The best way to change is the change from within. If you are able to that, everything else will follow.
I’m glad I’m on my way to it! :)
Months ago, I was just a newly graduate. I studied in one of the best schools for teacher education. I surpassed all the requirements of my professors! I graduated with flying colors! (We even had fireworks during the graduation ceremony!) And now, I am here typing these things during my vacant time in school. (But actually, I have a lot of informal themes to check.) Anyway, I still decided to write this blog. Going back, I am just so happy to share that I am more okay now. I feel better now. I am renewed. After all the things I’ve encountered, I feel I redeemed myself now. Why? Because before I write this blog, a lot of things happened in my life. As a new teacher, I had to adjust so much to the demands of work. There were a lot of time when I totally give up. I experienced absenting myself from my classes. I lied from my boss and co-teachers. I feel so down and depressed about myself. I keep thinking that maybe, teaching is not for me. It’s not what I want to be. I want to try another things. To discover myself more.
But in this course I am taking, I also realize how to pause for a while and just be thankful for all the blessings God has been giving me.
At this point, I really want to thank God for giving me so much opportunities wherein I can discover myself. Wherein I can improve myself. Because all this time, I do not appreciate the great things he has doing in my life. I keep looking for things I do not have. I do not focus on the things that I have.
And with that, I also want to thank all the people that God used for me to achieve the things I have now. I thank God for everything I have now. May I be more responsible now for these things. And be more focused this time. :)
As of 11:12AM,I am here.. reading the things on how to beat depression:
And it’s all about CHANGE. :)
Let me just share with you the things I wanna do that will help me become a more productive person.
1. Spend my NON-WORKING time with the people I love the most. MY FAMILY.
2. Read more books so that I will continue to be more knowledgeable so that I will be more confident about myself.
As of now, these are the two things I would really want to do. And I think I really have to start it now. I need it so bad.
