Week 2

Hope you are enjoying this glorious summer weather!  I'm thrilled that we've gotten both the Canvas and Edmodo environments all up and running (many thanks to Colin!).

Now, we can start TECHsploring these new areas!

For MS & US folks, we are going to try adding video and/or audio commentary to a discussion forum.  We're also going to try taking a quiz that I've created in the Canvas environment.  Log on to our Canvas course for all the details. While you are not yet able to practice creating these, I've provided links to tutorials for how you can add these things to your own courses once we have set them all up.

**Try the mobile app as well!  There are details on the right side of this blog about how to set up and use the Canvas mobile app.**

For LS teachers, we are going to look at the "Send to" feature and the other Edmodo communities that exist outside of Bryn Mawr School.  In addition to using Edmodo with your students, you can also use it to connect with teachers all across the globe who are teaching the same subjects and/or grade levels as you!  This week, you'll make some new connections and hopefully, meet some new people to add to your Personal Learning Network (PLN).  Log on to our Edmodo group for more details.

Don't forget that the discussions are just getting started over on the BMS Goodreads group--join us!  AND there's always Twitter for finding fresh ideas and inspiration.
