Ed-tech tools can enhance student learning. But teachers need to ensure they can prove meaningful and promote fact-based knowledge.

Daughter Jasmine, teacher+author extraordinaire, latest blog on Type 1 Fun. I enjoy making cameo appearances in her blogs. BTW, I embrace ALL types of fun! I think that her blogs have life lessons for all of us no matter our pursuits! Type one fun:

It doesn't always have to pain and tears and suffering. Sometimes, there's plenty of fun to be had just sitting and being present outdoors.

My latest blog on taking the impossible vows, differentiating, and how we can work towards meeting the needs of each one of our students. BTW I have been finding AI a useful way to help differentiate, which is a real challenge for the busy teacher. https://t.co/SDVvYyqlx4

The teaching method takes time and patience, and it needs to be tailored to fit the needs of each student.

New blog on how drama strategies support reading engagement, motivation, comprehension, and a variety of reading strategies. Every drama strategy is in fact a reading strategy. From my book ACTION STRATEGIES FOR DEEPENING COMPREHENSION. https://t.co/nIcGZn2Eka

Key to all these lessons is teachers' effective use of instructional time through student engagement.
