Tracey Kracht's List: Connected Educator

• Some students might not do their homework because they are used to a more concrete and traditional paper-and-pencil homework assignment, and therefore they might perceive this “new homework” as abstract, irrelevant, and perhaps not as important.
• the most effective videos are the ones that manage to keep students accountable for their learning.
• at key parts of the lesson/video the teacher might instruct the students to pause the video
• Such techniques make students active participants and empower them to take control of their own learning.
• Most people who flipped their classroom agree that in the beginning, teachers should expect to spend an average of 30 minutes of recording time to create a 10-minute lesson.
• Saving each lesson in multiple formats might be a solution to this problem. Also, creating a Youtube channel and posting videos on Youtube will make videos more accessible to all students.

• tagging’s golden rule: be consistent
• Always pick a single word over a phrase
• lowercase is consistency.
• singular words by default, then it reduces the questions you may have when searching your tags.
