This is a really good piece! Generalised 'tech' means nothing. What tech? Which apps? What knowledge? What concepts? What skills? @JtuckerJames
Excellent, thoughtful piece. @josepicardo @edtech

Sooner or later, tech's ability to transform both formative and summative assessment is going to force radical change in the organisation of teaching and learning #edtech

I know a child with a visual impairment who will love this. Independence is vital. Well done MSFT - hope you know how much this ongoing work is appreciated! #edtech #assistivetech
Coming this spring, you’ll be able to ask Cortana to find a setting in Windows Ease of Access and activate it. blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/accessibility/… #accessibility
There are already plenty of resources out there. Teachers need the digital literacy & pedagogical skills to find and select them; the money to buy them; the time to adapt them to their pupils' needs and the technology-skills to do this quickly and effectively #edtech
“Textbook companies don’t know your kids, YOU know your kids” @alicekeeler quite. To need to stop viewing textbook teacher manuals as the end all be all!
Absolutely! Use tech to enrich: capture, communicate, celebrate...
This - on 'screentime' - from @josepicardo is measured and wise. Important conversations about the *quality* of screen time are being squeezed out by a moral panic about *quantity*. Worth remembering the old, sneering term, 'bookworm'. We're better than this. #edtech
Twitter full of asinine comments about how terrible technology is for children. Probably a good time to retweet this. Not all screen time is equal: Some considerations for schools and parents josepicardo.com/education/not-…
As soon as I saw this, the names of three children popped into my mind. I'm going to use this asap. #edtech
Have you discovered "Inclusive Co-authoring" using Learning Tools in Microsoft Word? Students of all abilities can have their own layer on the doc to read, write & collaborate. Built-in w/ @Office365 #mieexpert #AssistiveTech #accessibility #dyslexia #edchat #cpchat #suptchat
This is very important. I hope the debate will shift in time towards quality of tech interactions and away from blunt measures of quantity. @drmalvord #edtech
".rather than worry about the catch-all notion of ‘screen time’ it might be better to focus on whether, when and why particular digital activities help or harm individual children."
Agreed, @MrSchorsch . *Quantity* of screen-time is less important than its *quality*. #edtech #edtechchat
My take: The real divide is "digital use divide." Supporting Ps in managing tech use at home, smart integration of technology in schools, and treating Ss as creators (not consumers) is key. #edtechchat "America’s Real Digital Divide" nyti.ms/2BS6fkU
If I had 10k extra per year to spend on tech in a school? I'd spend it *ALL* on training and CPD. (Prompted by conversation with @ICTEvangelist) #edtech
Mark and others make it easy to use tech better in teaching (and learning). But for many in schools, I suggest that this *important* aspect of CPD is often neglected in favour of the *urgent*. I would put Better Use Of Tech into staff targets and appraisals. #edtech
Working efficiently with technology as a teacher makes complete sense. Here are three areas where #edtech can help you and ways to do it buff.ly/2ov4n8A #edtech #elearning #edchat #ukedchat #aussieED
Learning Tools is excellent. Office Lens is excellent. Put them together and important and valuable things happen for VI children #edtech
Check out the latest on @Office365 in the Classroom. Humbling to see how Learning Tools continues to grow with 7M active users, increasing test scores by 10% and empowering kids to just be included. Nothing better than that. #accessibility blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/teachers/?p=13…
