I've got to hand it to you @Microsoft. After all these years, you still excel at ruining things. Goodbye @MicrosoftFlip. What a great touch to wait until school let out. Now those of us who help teachers with tech get to drop that on them right when they get back from break. Fun!

Don’t worry, honey. They’re for work! Seriously. Come to our session at #ncties24 and learn how you can use tabletop roleplaying games to boost engagement and learning. https://t.co/IlObDp3FnW

I think it's important to note I just ordered 112 d20 dice and they will arrive at my home tomorrow. And this is for work. What a time to be alive.

The fate of the #Babylon5 pilot may be decided end of this month. Though much of @TheCW was bought by @NXSTMediaGroup the decision also rests heavily with @WarnerbrosTV. If fans want to show their support for B5 & let them know you want this to happen, now is the time #B5onCWin23

5/5 If we allow legislators & school boards to make teachers "accountable" for producing higher test scores, you can bet students will receive an education completely out of step with the best thinking about how kids learn. The scores may rise even as the learning stagnates.

Does your school district use Minecraft Education Edition? I need some advice, particularly on the management side of things.

A 2018 study conducted with middle school students showed that when teachers welcome students at the door, academic engagement increased by 20% and disruptive behavior decreased by 9%. -From the book Teachers These Days. #togetherweRfife #teachertwitter #middleschool #edchat

There is nothing wrong with incorporating play into your school day. Let no one discourage you for having fun and letting kids be kids.

Very cool application of the game! Kids won't forget this ever. Big country, bigger game. Does this make the USA The Nether? :) @susietinker5 @jeb_
We used @Minecraft Education to explore regions of Canada. Ss built mines, farmlands, and the Northern Lights. Along with their biome, they wrote paragraphs welcoming a newcomer to their physical region. #MinecraftEdu #edutwitter @PlayCraftLearn ⛏🌲🏔

Interesting. This is why, as educators, we need to give students opportunities to succeed.
Failure secretes chemicals that kill motivation. Although some of the greatest discoveries have come from repeated failure, research shows that those who overcame failure had an established history of success. #success #neuroscience

It’s a sign that your #makerspace activity went well when you ask the students at the end to organize the electrical components by type and they also organize your connectors by color.

And educate them on how to make GOOD, POSITIVE content. Tell them about the algorithms and how they cater to the worst of our instincts. Challenge them to fight against that.

Good lord. Apparently I started tweeting 14 years ago today. Probably from a flip phone powered by a steam engine.
