Had such wonderful conversations with Melody Ramos who works for the New Haven Housing Authority. at the Elm City Webmaker Meet Up She noted how amazing our camp is for working moms. Melody noted how relaxing it is to work knowing her daughter is in trusted hands and learning skills she needs right away. We then discussed some ideas about how little netowrks
@mburtis our plan just dropped: . Also have to remember Connecticut land of Steady Habits....not dumbasses who mix up freedom and stupidity...our state followed the rules and has community spread % low. https://inside.southernct.edu/sites/default/files/inline-files/Reopen_Plan_8.5x11.pdf
Welcome all #tech4teen campers in #nhv wanted to let you know I reached out to parents and guardians and invited then to our #IndieWeb meet up tonight: http://tech-4-teens.club/2020/07/15/welcome-to-the-web-tech4teens-campers/
Today's #edu522 #dailychallenge How do we build in opportunities to learn how to learn online in our online learning experiences? #edtechchat #digped #openpedagogy
If you would have told my "college self" I would start each day saying "Camera is on, make sure no one is naked"...I would have thought I would have a much cooler job in the future.
Here is the day five lesson plan from the #elmcitywebmakers as part of the #tech4teens camp in #nhv today: http://tech-4-teens.club/2020/07/15/tech4teens-day-5-plan/ gonna play a ton with @wevideo thx to @yale and @scsu mentors for making it all possible
If you would like to support the #tech4teens camp it is being run by Concepts of Adaptive Learning in #nhv with support from the #elmcitywebmakers. Donate today: https://www.cfalct.org/tech4teens wanna do this in your twon or city. It scales
This is a 100% volunteer and donation paid program. It could scale across Connecticut. We are only limited by the number of mentors we have. Thanks to @scsu and @yale students for making #tech4teens such a wonderful space in #nhv
#stuff matters but #ethos matter more. Why we stress play and passion in our New Haven #nhv #tech4teens camp. Every camper gets a free computer but you also learn and teach us about what you love. http://tech-4-teens.club/
We need to take back our poles and push for municipal wifi now, we need to recenter the web in marginalized communities, work in partnership with churches, art orgs, non profits, and schools to roll out devices
Nine years ago we did our @Uconn new #literacies research in East Hartford School District giving classroom teachers laptop carts and instruction in Internet Reciprocal Teaching...https://www.ctnewsjunkie.com/archives/entry/20200713_despite_community_efforts_some_students_are_still_offline/ we could have fixed this
@athletics_nmms We are giving every kid and their teacher a website and then publishing all the work into a single rss planet, why not improve communication and build digital #literacies skills
@mburtis We have it totally figured out in Connecticut....Uppity ups found this buzzword jargon HyFlex...so we are set now...just need to HyFlex,everything works....wait till the budgets come out...nothing means nothing till then
@CeOuimet Cheri teaching the class in the open again. Feel free to join us. It is still five weeks of content...We start off with "week zero" and just try to get our personal infrastructure going.
So many have to be online 24/7 with an "Everything is Awesome" mask on while every bone on the inside screams, "We told you so"....gets exhausting....hard for many to do more online stuff during down time.
I think many of us just tired. Everyone interested in a #DoOO and #IndieWeb probably faculty who the university ignored last decade but now being relied on to get everyone online. Turning squeaky wheels into overworked heroes,
