Educational Duct Tape
In a multi-session, content-rich, idea-filled conference like this one, educators can fall into the trap of “paradox of choice,” which often keeps educators from integrating *any* of their newly learned skills. In this session, Jake will share about how “Educational Duct Tape” can help educators overcome this paradox. Learn how Jake’s silly metaphor can be used as an #edtech integration mindset in your classroom, tomorrow!
Session Objectives:
-
Developing a mindset for selecting educational technology tools to learn about and integrate.
-
Avoiding being feeling paralyzed by the number of edtech tool choices.
