TEACHER CAPACITY BUILDING
CALL TO ACTION
THE DESPERATE NEED FOR A POST PANDEMIC PEDAGOGY, PURPOSE AND POSSIBILITY
As revealed in keynote speeches during the March, 2021 Computer User Education Conference, such as Dr. Enman's "The Desperate Need For a Post Pandemic Pedagogy" above, COVID didn’t destroy education, it uncovered and exposed education’s historic failures, in particular its ability to leverage technology to promote unprecedented student learning.
Education sits on the precipice of change, a historical threshold moment, an opportunity to spark a new generation of teaching and learning. This is what Stephen Johnson calls the “Adjacent Possible…a kind of shadow future, hovering on the edges of the present state of things, a map of all the ways in which the present can reinvent itself. The adjacent possible captures both the limits and the creative potential of change and innovation."
Below you I provide links to essential educational technology tools and highlight just some of the legions of educational leaders, "transcendent" innovators who provide free resources to help teachers transform their teaching. One visionary leader, Dr. Sonny Magana, in his book, Disruptive Classroom Technologies: A Framework for Innovation in Education, leads the way. His T3 Framework for Innovation "is a highly reliable model for enhancing modern instructional practice with modern teaching and learning tools." This hierarchal structure leverages technology's power, and promotes revolutionary thinking about how to electrify the teaching profession around its core mission, creating visible learning. through critical thinking templates like Eduprotocols and Hyperdocs. Using the interactions of these T-3 tools, translational, transformational and transcendent, teachers can save an enormous amount of time while at the same time significantly enhance student learning resources to promote “wicked problem solving”.

MY EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES IN A WAKELET. |
?WHAT IS A WAKELET? |
Wakelet offers a way to collate all the rich media available online, in one easy to access space. Imagine building your own website every time you wanted to present a subject -- only now it's super simple.
The idea behind Wakelet as an educational tool is to make the use of videos, website links, images, audio recordings, social media posts, text, and more -- all available in one place. By creating one spot to collate all that, it's possible for educators, and students, to build projects in a very accessible way. Like a digital scrapbook that can be shared with anyone.
This can be used in class and beyond, allowing students and teachers to share with parents and families. Or educators and adminstrators to work with one another across this single space of information sharing.

I created this Wakelet for teachers as a curation platform, to organize my favorite links. My links are organized in categories, from basic "translational" teacher tools, to "transformative and transcendent tools." Consequently, there may be many overlaps. For example Quiziz and Quizlet are located under Formative Assessments but also "Gamified Learning." I created these links in 2021. Some may have expired or upgraded, like Google's Jamboard. I will revisit and update these links in the next few months. But in the meantime, teachers will be stunned at the resources already created in Wakelet, and how you can leverage it in your classroom.
